Training Outsourcing Managed Services and Solutions

“Having a training outsourcing managed services partner like LSA to support our training and development needs has been a real benefit.

In a growing company, having an external partner with a proven range of expertise and learning solutions that deeply knows our business and the best practices of leading organizations is a real blessing.”
Chris Wells | VP Human Resources and IT | Xoma

“For our go to training outsourcing and consulting partner, LSA provides exactly what we want. As always, they deliver outstanding work!”
Elizabeth Siebert | Director, Organizational Excellence | Intuit

Now, more than ever, leading organizations see the value in leveraging training outsourcing managed services and solutions for all or significant portions of their learning and development functions.

According to a recent study, two-thirds of Fortune 1000 companies are currently outsourcing some of their HR function. Our research indicates the number of companies outsourcing their training functions will continue to increase as executives face pressure to:

Reduce and control training costs
Create a variable cost structure
Gain access to training best practice processes
Take advantage of training best practice expertise that they do not have and cannot effectively build internally
Focus solely on their own core competencies
Increase the business value from their investment in training
Create a single point of accountability and responsibility for training
Increase quality of training solutions
Reduce training risks
Accelerate business results

LSA has a very unique and powerful methodology regarding learning. Their ability to overcome skepticism, obtain executive support, and create an aligned learning strategy that provides measurable business impact is second to none.

They understand your goals, flex to your needs, and solve problems. They certainly help make my job easier and are a pleasure to work with.

I highly recommend LSA to anyone trying to connect the dots between strategy, skills, knowledge, and results.

Noelle Van Vlierbergen
Human Resources Director

Having taken on a new executive leadership role, one of my first calls was to LSA Global to help my leadership team to design, implement, and cascade clear strategic plans. First, LSA helped our leadership team identify the strategy, culture, and talent areas that mattered most to create organizational alignment.

Then they helped facilitate the design of a strategic growth plan that is clear, compelling, believable, and implementable. We now have 100% commitment from an aligned leadership team and key stakeholders going forward.

I would recommend LSA to anyone who wants to create high levels of strategic alignment, growth, and performance.

LSA was very thorough during all phases of our customer service strategy process. Their time spent with management and our employees went very well.

LSA’s insights were very powerful, and their suggestions for the future were very valuable.

I can’t think of any phase of the process that wasn’t first class.

Simon Jefferson

Having recently completed an acquisition that doubled our size and geographic reach, we needed to redefine our “go forward” plan to address the increasing commoditization of our marketplace.

I was very impressed with the thoughtful and practical way that LSA Global was able to bring our leadership teams together to gain focus, buy-in, and commitment to a compelling strategic plan that we created together.

Jon Troen

LSA’s action-learning leadership approach has been very beneficial to me, our leadership team, and the entire organization.

The balance of development and results has been excellent.

We have made huge progress, and I was also able to identify 2-3 high potentials while having the extra benefit of people stepping up to carry key strategic projects forward.

The experience was better than anticipated. I could not be more pleased.
