Knowledge Wizards Approach Enhancement of performance requires transforming thinking of individuals Each training intervention is unique in terms of organization, requirements, vertical, environment, culture etc. and requires to be treated accordingly as a project Coaching interventions to support training need to be integrated to not only reinforce training but also address inherent individual challenges Intervention results need to be clearly committed and be verifiable independently Perfect execution is the key to succeed

Why an Integrated Train and Coach model? It has been a very common experience that most training programs have a limited impact which gradually dissipates with time due to lack of practicing the learnings and shifting of participant focus to daily operational activities.   In general, 50% of the participant skills are common to all participants and required for improving organizational business operations - can be addressed by traditional trainings. The other 50% skills need to be enhanced as per individual requirements – and these are addressed by executive coaching. This provides a holistic solution for upgrading attitude and skills.

What is unique about us? Neuroscience-based A quantifiable neuroscientific foundation that underpins all training initiatives and content. Process-focused Codified practices for all interventions, including coaching, training and facilitation allows for scalable solutions. Outcome-driven Defined objectives, measurement culture and scalable solutions.
