Everything We Do Makes a Difference
We believe that to make any training course a resounding success you need the following to happen after the event, we call them the Golden Imperatives:
- Participants to rave about the experience and recommend it to their colleagues
- Participants to have achieved their learning objectives and feel they have made great progress
- For the newly acquired skill or knowledge, or shift in behaviour to be transferred to the person’s role in the workplace
- For the business to realise its return on investment in the training taken
Achieving these doesn’t just happen by chance, they must be designed into the training offer.
Skillful, Creative and Pragmatic
So we work passionately to design a training course for you to enable these four imperatives to be achieved. Our extensive knowledge and practical experience spans over 20 years and falls into three categories.
- Designing
- Developing
- Delivering
And we’ve found over the years that sticking to a simple, repeatable process in training course design and workshop creation pays for itself with efficiencies, effectiveness and cost savings. So we adopt the standard practice of ADDIE. For those of you not familiar with it here’s the acronym explained:
- Analyse – we determine the needs and the goals for the training
- Design – we determine the objectives and criterion tests to meet the training goals
- Develop – the process of constructing and producing the training based on the agreed design
- Implement – the process of using the training in the setting for which it was planned
- Evaluate – the process of assessing the worth of the training as it is being developed (formative evaluation) and after it has been implemented (summative evaluation)

Mark was instrumental in helping develop the Customer Experience programmes at BMW Group UK. He is thoughtful and clever in designing solutions that combine strategic aims with the needs of the ‘person on the ground’ – basically he knows his stuff. If you want a solution that works and provides clear business differentiation, he is someone you should talk to. As a Consultant he operates from a position of trust, integrity and partnership. I have no hesitation in recommending Mark.
Having worked with The Customer's Shoes in Balfour Beatty WorkPlace, I have been extremely impressed with their experience and skills to design and deliver customer experience programmes. They have the ability to facilitate workshops at any level of the organisation, whether it is top level management or customer facing staff.
Cheryl translated the strategies and goals of our club, in relation to the delivery of the customer experience, into a very balanced and insightful workshop on this critical area of our business.
Each activity during the workshop was well thought out, supported with the relevant learning aids, and well positioned to challenge the team and help draw conclusions and commitments to take back to our workplace.
The feedback from the team regarding the sessions they have attended has been extremely positive.
