“I continue to be impressed by the level of instructional design consulting, overall expertise, and quality of facilitation that LSA has to offer.

What an impressive group of great consultants that really focus on our needs.”
Tracy Esposito | HR & Training Manager | Sony

“We engaged with LSA Global to share best practices around Rapid Instructional Design and to develop, design and deliver an education session that taught our property owners the benefits of our Customer Loyalty program.  

We found LSA Global’s team to be collaborative, insightful, prepared, and nimble, especially given that the time frame for the project became compressed.  We look forward to continuing our strategic partnership.”
Annmarie Fairweather | VP Brand Service | Wyndham Hotels

“Thank you for the facilitation. Your 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 program redesign but also it was like a mini-seminar that stretched our L&D team’s thinking.”
Richard Morse | Senior Director Talent Development | Gilead Sciences

While there are many proven off-the-shelf learning solutions, we find that more and more clients are turning away from “what everyone else can get.”

They are leaning toward integrated offerings, custom designed training solutions, and personalized implementations based upon instructional design best practices, preferred content, and targeted business outcomes.

Surprising to some, this approach can consistently lead to decreased costs (no licensing fees), higher quality (performance test-based), and faster implementations (weeks not months).

Our instructional design consulting solutions are a function of proven research-based methodologies, templates, and tools that focus on learning activities and desired performance results to help learners get to where they need to be in terms of new skills, knowledge, and attitudes.

Because of this unique approach, our instructional design consulting solutions consistently result in the design of learning solutions faster, better, and therefore cheaper than other approaches. Our success is based upon the following tested principles:

  1. Continuous design that uses multiple resources and modalities.
  2. Concurrent design that simultaneously conducts analysis, design, implementation, evaluation, and revision.
  3. Creative design that requires and rewards learners to think innovatively based on a “performance test” which participants master.
  4. Co-design that requires learners to take on the roles of subject matter experts, trainers, teachers, and evaluators.

LSA offers a customized onsite Instructional Design workshop in support of our consulting services and train-the-trainer (T3) workshops to help increase facilitation skills.

We have worked with LSA Global for our learning and development needs and have always had great success.

They helped us recently with targeted and customized Management Training Workshops to fit our unique situation, and they were fantastic.

I highly recommend LSA to anyone that is attempting to help take their leadership and management talent to the next level.

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 high performance 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 have had a very beneficial partnership with LSA. Their recent Leadership Development Program helped us to identify, develop, and retain top leaders. It was instrumental in helping take our company and our key people to the next level. I would recommend them to anyone looking to truly develop and retain top talent.

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

LSA Global has been a great partner in helping us move toward being “the leading developer of talent in the service performance management industry.”

I have engaged LSA to help develop best-in-class programs in the areas of: Executive On-boarding, Manager Training, Sales Training and Coaching, Employee Engagement, and Instructional Design.

They have consistently met or exceeded my (very) high expectations and are always responsive to my needs to increase performance, engagement, customer satisfaction, and sales growth.

The refreshing thing about LSA is that they focus on understanding our business situation and helping me succeed instead of selling stuff. Their experts are an invaluable resource that help me deliver higher quality results faster. I recommend them to anyone looking to improve the performance of their workforce.

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 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.

We have partnered with LSA for years.  Our organization’s learning needs have increased, decreased, and increased again over time.

The beauty of LSA’s business model is its flexibility and depth of their expertise.

When we need strategic or tactical outside help that we can trust, we use LSA knowing that we can depend on outstanding quality advice and targeted solutions every time.  You cannot go wrong with LSA.

Margie Bunting
HR Manager

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 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.

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.

We partnered with LSA to help custom design, deliver, and measure an advanced new employee on-boarding process. It was well thought out and bought into by sales leadership.  The combination of targeted sales tools, technology, coaching, performance plans, training, and reinforcement made all the difference.  The solution quantifiably improved new employee and hiring manager satisfaction and increased the speed to sales quota for new hires.

I would highly recommend LSA Global for any sales enablement team looking to increase the engagement and speed to productivity of their sales force. We are excited to implement the program globally as we continue to scale.
