Compliance as Springboard for Management Training: Technology

Gaining Compliance and Developing Managers at a Technology Company

Client Case Study

Compliance as Springboard for Management Training

Situation
A leading network storage systems company was experiencing rapid growth. With the passage of AB 1825, California mandatory harassment compliance training, they followed the spirit of this new law and used it as an opportunity to train all US based on key aspects of employment law.

Complications

  • Prisoners: Managers did not want to attend mandatory training on a dry subject that they perceived had little to do with their personal success.

Approach

Worked with the company’s Legal Counsel and Head of Training to customize and roll-out two foundational compliance workshops called Compliance as Springboard for Management Training:

  1. Managing Within the Law I
  2. Managing Ethically: Corporate Compliance Laws workshops

An Executive Overview of the training was first conducted for all executive staff, and an executive sponsorship program was put into place before it was rolled-out to managers clearly articulating the corporate and personal relevance of the initiative in terms of gaining a better understanding of how to manage legally to mitigate potential lawsuits, increasing awareness of business ethics, corporate code of conduct and relevant laws, and fostering an environment that promoted a respectful and productive workplace.

Results

  • 99% of all managers completed the training
  • 99% average client satisfaction rating making it the #1 rated workshop at this client
  • Gained compliance with the mandatory California harassment training requirements (AB 1825)

We gave LSA a very short deadline to customize an important management training program to meet our unique requirements.

Their facilitator was excellent, an expert in the subject matter, and very credible with our teams.

The targeted design provided practical and valuable information and skills that our managers truly needed.

I appreciate that each management development program is preceded by a thorough training needs assessment of the participants that informs a design to fit the specific parameters and needs of the group.

The highly interactive delivery is provided by recognized experts in their fields. On the spot coaching is provided during the program and each participant receives individual follow-up after the course.

Courses can be delivered in-person or virtually.

Given the nature of Cisco’s business and the way we operate, these remote workshops are a must for anyone who joins our company. Their work is eye opening. Great content and fantastic delivery.

What a refreshing change from the half-baked psycho-babble you normally get from training and consulting organizations. LSA gives you the practical and results-oriented assistance you need to define and reach your goals.

Their leadership, management, and sales expertise has been invaluable.  They think strategically and provide a results driven plan – not just a temporary fix.

They are great to work with, and even more importantly, they “get it!”
