Customized to Maximize Impact. We work with clients to custom-design our programs to address the specific needs of key executives and personnel. Workshop participants provide examples of real challenges and real contexts, and these form the backbone of the training.
Our core offerings, which integrate a variety of challenges brought by participants, include:
- Managing Difficult Business Conversations
- Negotiating for Results
- Advanced Negotiation: Difficult Tactics
- Difficult Conversations for Teams
In addition, our programs can target current, pressing issues, and provide skills to tackle particular challenges. A sampling of recent customized courses for clients:
- Improving Influence with Colleagues and Clients
- Delivering Bad News
- Giving & Receiving Feedback: Coaching for Performance
- Executive Team Decision-Making
- Managing Strategic Partnerships
Interactive. Because people learn by doing, our workshops are highly interactive, functioning as collaborative working sessions on participants' own challenges. Case studies, exercises, one-on-one simulations, and demonstrations allow participants to practice what they're learning, get faculty and peer coaching, and to apply it to the situations they will face when they return to the office. A typical workshop is delivered by two Triad faculty working with a group of 16-24 participants, although other formats are available, depending on client need.
Award-Winning. Every Triad workshops includes this level of customization and application to your world. We have also collaborated with clients to produce unique cases, exercises and videos. Our "Difficult Performance Conversations" video, produced in collaboration with client IBM, won the 2005 Telly Award for Best Corporate Training Video.
Finally, Making it "Stick". After even the most transformative workshops, it's all too common for the learning to be lost once professionals step back into their time-pressed real world responsibilities. Follow-up working sessions, exercises for on-going team discussions, wallet cards, preparation worksheets, and monthly reminders and assignments help change stick; professionals "walk the talk" and use the skills they bring home.
