People LEARN by DOING. Managers RETAIN concepts through SUPPORT and motivating REINFORCEMENT.

NetSpeed Leadership is an exciting, hands-on leadership training and development program using a blended learning approach, designed to meet the learning needs of managers, supervisors and individual contributors in fast-paced organizations. NetSpeed Leadership’s system of supervisory and management training is specifically designed and tested to help managers grasp and apply proven management techniques immediately. Corporations select from among 23 short, focused training modules (each 3 hours).

Using fast-paced, highly interactive instruction, NetSpeed Leadership emphasizes practical theory and tools that can be applied immediately in the workplace.

Process
Classroom instruction: Each NetSpeed Leadership module begins with face-to-face group instruction facilitated by a certified trainer. You may choose to have one of your trainers certified in NetSpeed Leadership facilitation or you may use one of our certified trainers. Employing a stylish and powerfully-designed electronic presentation, participant workbook, and detailed facilitator guide, the trainer guides participants through fun experiential exercises, insightful small group discussion, skills practice sessions, and practical application. Participants return to their jobs with relevant tools and an action plan to apply them -- right away.

Electronic reinforcement: One week after each module is presented, participants are emailed an electronic magazine with a case study, role model interview, to-do list, and other features crafted to reinforce the face-to-face training in a fresh, readable magazine format.

Web-based tools: Participants then complete a brief web-based certification test, called NetSpeed Coach^TM to demonstrate their knowledge of the material and the ability to apply that knowledge to real-life management situations. NetSpeed On The Job^TM is an action planning tool that participants use to construct detailed action plans for specific work challenges, following a template based directly on learning principles covered in their classroom experience.

Benefits
For participants: Program participants gain valuable approaches to managing others, building their teams, and achieving productive results through collaboration with others. Training presented in focused modules scheduled over several weeks, combined with a systematic series of e-learning reinforcement tools, maximizes knowledge retention and application of skills.

For Trainers and Training Directors: NetSpeed Leadership’s blended learning approach to leadership development is powerful and easy to implement. It allows training directors to quickly launch and support a training initiative, certify program participants, and reward participation and achievement.

NetSpeed Leadership supports the Training Director in providing the best of face-to-face instruction combined with state-of-the-art online learning reinforcement tools.
