Issue
Our client, a global management consulting firm working in almost every industry and sector, is passionately committed to the personal and professional development and well-being of its own people. It is consistently ranked in international surveys as one of the best places in the world to work. This commitment to its people is reflected in the breadth of learning and development it offers. Formal training on delegation is one of three workshops JSB was asked to deliver.
Our approach
In addition to gaining a full understanding of client requirements, JSB ensures that what we deliver is in harmony with the client’s culture and ethos. JSB researches the work of the client, the duties they perform and the pressures they face; we seek to understand how our client works with its clients, how different function areas contribute to client satisfaction; we get a feel for how our client communicates and how its operating principles and values inform the way they work; we understand how this training fits into the wider picture of learning and development strategy and work with our client to ensure our programme adds maximum value and impact.
Key characteristics of our approach include:
- Conducting the workshop in the spirit of the client’s operating principles and values
- Keeping results and outcomes in focus
- Ensuring every aspect is immediately relevant to all delegates
- The ability to apply all things learned in a practical and pragmatic way in the workplace
- A stimulating, demanding and enjoyable workshop environment
Our workshop includes a combination of self-analysis, group discussion, technical instruction, role plays of real situations, detailed feedback, practical advice and action planning.
The outcome
An intensive, practical workshop of instruction, skills practice and individual, incisive, trainer feedback ensures participants extract maximum value from the day. They learn about their current approach to delegation, core principles of delegation, the commercial dimension, overcoming barriers to delegating, developing and coaching staff, delegation as an empowerment tool and how to plan a delegation. Personal action plans ensure the continued application of learning in the workplace.
