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 tremendous ability to distil complex, multilayered challenges into meaningful, impactful, and clear strategies and action plans.

The custom strategy and design session exceeded our expectations. They really understood our business and delivered within tight time frames. They were the best I have seen for this type of complex, visible, and strategic work.

LSA’s ability to get a group of 20+ executives from around the globe on the same page, push their thinking to new heights, and ensure an executable plan was excellent.

I would recommend LSA to anyone looking to take their strategy and strategic execution to the next level.
