To help our clients make a meaningful impact on the people and the business, we offer three levels of solutions.  We have proven experience and success across all three levels. When designed and implemented correctly, we believe that all three solutions provide value.

We also believe that each solution level has unique challenges that must be carefully and correctly managed to succeed.

                                                                                                                                                                    

LSA Global Learning Solution Methodology

                                                                                                                                                                    

TRAINING SOLUTIONS

Training solutions seek to improve the awareness and insight of specific skills and knowledge relevant to career development, job performance, and professional growth opportunities.

Success is typically measured by participant satisfaction surveys focused on job relevance and applicability, facilitator effectiveness, perceived knowledge gain, pace, instructional design, and satisfaction.

Without other supporting interventions, only 1-in-5 participants on average will change their behavior and performance from a stand-alone training solution.

Training solutions are most often deployed as open-enrollment offerings for individuals and are used to satisfy the basic compliance, health, and hygiene learning needs required to attract, develop, engage, and retain talent.

They should be tailored to your unique organizational culture and integrated with your current approaches, models, language, delivery modalities, and branding.

LEARNING SOLUTIONS
Learning solutions aim to change behavior and improve individual or team performance.

Success is typically measured by the adoption of new skills and behaviors and the corresponding lift in performance such as increased revenue, decreased costs or increased productivity.

Learning solutions are most often deployed as a change initiative for a team or group to solve a specific and important business problem.  To succeed, learning solutions must:

  • Be highly relevant to three key stakeholders compared to other strategic priorities:  (1) The Business, (2) Leadership (including your boss and his peers), and (3) Your Target Audience. We call this 3×3 Relevance.
  • Create adoption by defining and focusing on the critical few skills and scenarios that matter most, ensuring targeted performance coaching and aligning related business processes.
  • Measure impact by correlating high and low skill adoption to your key performance metrics and providing individual coaching scorecards for participants and their manager.

BUSINESS SOLUTIONS
Business solutions look to create organizational alignment and business impact by aligning corporate culture and talent to business strategies.

Success is typically measured by the short- and long-term improvement of strategic business metrics.  Business solutions are most often deployed as a systemic and strategic initiative with the executive team to:

  • Strategy: Create corporate strategies that are clear, believable, and implementable
  • Culture: Build a healthy, high performing, and strategically aligned culture to effectively implement the strategy
  • Talent: Better attract, develop, engage, and retain the top talent required to effectively implement the strategy

LSA Global brought a fresh perspective to our behavioral based interviewing strategy for key executive positions that we needed to fill.  They helped us to develop questions that produced a much deeper understanding of candidates’ capabilities.

Throughout the process LSA was also very responsive in dealing with short lead time requests.  Thank you!

Having a training outsourcing partner like LSA to support our talent management needs has been a real blessing. In an emerging company where typically you can’t afford the infrastructure necessary to provide a full range of offerings, having an external partner like LSA has been a blessing.

They deeply understand our business and our culture.   They do a great job on a wide range of customized training, consulting, and coaching solutions for us.

For us, they are definitely better than having our own internal Training and Organizational Development function.  They always do what it takes to hit the mark.

Chris Wells
Vice President, HR and IT

We partnered with LSA Global to help us invest in our people. LSA custom designed an impactful management curriculum to help upskill our key managers and leaders.

We consider LSA to be our trusted learning and development partner and a valued extension of our team as we rapidly scale.  Thank you LSA!

I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed working with LSA on the design and delivery of the experiential new employee on-boarding training.

I’ve been getting tons of positive unsolicited feedback.

You truly exceeded everyone’s expectations.

The experiential New Employee Orientation was an incredible success for 2,500+ new hires over 4 years spread across the globe.

LSA partnered with us to create an innovative solution on very short notice and added a huge amount of value.

We could never have done it without their unmatched combination of expertise, professionalism, and creativity that aligned everything with our unique culture and growth strategy.

Even our executives and experienced hires were blown away!

We looked to LSA Global as a consulting partner to help us explore innovative and scholarly approaches to promote employee engagement and sustain the unique culture we’ve built over the last decade.  LSA helped us perpetuate coaching as a discipline across the organization by integrating our core values, goal setting, and performance management.

We appreciate LSA’s commitment to cutting-edge practices to help keep us a step ahead during this time of rapid change.

We hired LSA Global to design and deliver a customized outdoor experiential new employee orientation program for our recent group of MBA new hires.

The program reinforced WIPRO core values, helped to build relationships with fellow associates, and enhanced the group’s ability to operate successfully in the global world.

I definitely recommend LSA for effective employee onboarding of top talent.

LSA brought a very effective training strategy, design, and implementation approach to help us create a common language around our corporate training.

As a fast growing company with a geographically dispersed workforce, LSA’s expertise was invaluable to us in driving consistency, creating a sense of belonging for our employees, and developing a common language for everyone.

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.

Thank you! Your learning strategy insights flipped our approach from a content-driven design to one where business strategy and relevancy drives the leadership programs we aimed to redesign.

This investment more than proved its worth – not only did it improve our leadership development program redesign, but it also was like a mini executive seminar that stretched our experienced L&D team’s thinking.

I’m not sure if I’ve run across a company that can match the depth and quality of LSA’s consultants and facilitators.

I highly recommend LSA to anyone seeking a trusted training, coaching, and consulting partner to improve performance – at both a tactical and strategic level.

They really get talent, learning, and performance.

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.

LSA asks the hard questions, listens, and understands both our business and talent needs.

We greatly benefit from their expertise ranging from assistance with personal development plans, to enhancing team performance, to enterprise-wide talent management challenges.
