We build your peoples capability in delivering your results
Results will only change in your organisation when skills are learnt and applied. Knowledge alone is of little value. In order to get good results and improve them, you need good processes. In order to get good processes you need good people and in order to get good people you need to grow good leadership. We will help you grow foundational leadership skills of your people.
You may have read about Training Within Industry (TWI), Toyota Kata or Visual Management on our website, or you are well aware of them already. You will understand then that each has knowledge and skill components fundamentally related to frontline leadership and management. These are continuums of capability development through which we will lead the way. We will work with you to establish an environment where associated skills can be practised daily and, through this “learn by doing” along with effective coaching by management or us, your people will grow essential leadership skills.
Typically, our approach is one of knowledge and awareness alignment, training (following the very effective 5x2Hour TWI model that focusses on skill development through practise) then mentoring and coaching post training. It is in the stage of mentoring and coaching that true development occurs thus building on the platform set in the training.
Periodic reviews with Senior Management (who may have been involved in the training) ensures alignment with strategic goals is being maintained.

Throughout this project Oscar has involved the experienced staff in the building of the knowledge and skill material, increasing the likelihood of a sustainable system, owned by our people.
Oscar has helped us develop a system of learning, in our own often fast paced environment that has the required consistency to ensure the quality required with the flexibility to accommodate the needs of the individual. He has made the step by step requirements clear, and reliably follows up on the tasks he is driving, carefully insisting and helping us reach each step of the project.

We had a wonderful 2 weeks of training on TWI covering JI and JR. JI is a very effective training methodology that we can apply in many areas. We were completely convinced that it can helps in shorten our training lead time, improve the efficiency and quality in our worker’s performance. How good if we can get to know this earlier!!
JR on another note is very much a soft skill training. On the first perception, it seems like a general knowledge; something that we were being taught in any leadership training. However similarly to JI; there’s a pattern of learning that we need to develop that is matter. Most of the time we know what should be done but we just failed to do so. JR will definitely address that as we will handle the issue steps by steps till that become a habits.
Trainer:
Oscar is a seasoned trainer, very knowledgeable in the subject. He carried out the training in his most professional self and accept no nonsense from the group. He has a sharp observation skill and always able to bring out the best from each student.
