Professional Development


In the past ten years, major American corporations have realized that without properly trained employees their investments in technology are futile. As opposed to corporate "expansions" from mergers and acquisitions, the only long-term growth solution for any company is to grow "organically". What that means is the right people must get hired and all employees must be trained, developed, and properly led. This internal growth is truly the solid investment for continuously increasing productivity and profitability. It has been documented in many corporations that the return on investment from "people development" has exceeded ten times that of "new technology investment".

Corporations spend millions of dollars recruiting, screening, and hiring employees. But, hiring the right people is only the beginning. These employees have only potential and possibilities if proper developmental tools and measurements are not implemented into their career pathing efforts and managed for optimum results. Experts have confirmed that, until negative motivations are removed, broad-brushed training just energizes all sides of employees including their negative habits. Rarely can a "canned approach" meet the needs of the total employee population.

LifeThrive Learning Systems analysis gives you the information you need to build a customized program, with proper incentives, that all employees will respond to. Employees will develop based on their individual behavioral and learning skills.

Companies across America have seen the LifeThrive method produce:

  • double-digit increases in productivity
  • improved sales across the board
  • a safer work environment in just a few short months.

 

Your company can profit from this method also. But, you only receive this unique approach from LifeThrive.

Corporate Development Programs are presented in business environments through:

  1. Work Environment Profiling
  2. Executive Vision/Policy Training
  3. Sales Success Training
  4. Safety Development Training
  5. Leadership Development Training
  6. Management Development Training

Work Environment Profiling
Every job description demands a unique set of behavioral and motivational characteristics. Work Environment and performance profiling is a fairly new approach to creating both skill and behavioral requirements of certain jobs. Using a technology not available anywhere else, a particular job can be empirically profiled, which provides not only the behavioral styles necessary but also the human characteristics and motivational sources necessary. Immediately following the profile construction, all current employees of that job classification can be measured within the profile to define acquired, developed and possibly lacking behavioral and motivational levels. When an individual is hired whose profile fits those characteristics, that new hire, once trained, should be able to perform the job requirements without stress. Without the profile, you are only guessing the new hire can perform.
Executive Vision/Policy Training
Using a proprietary assessment tool, LifeThrive staff is able to define the vision and policy parameters of the corporate CEO, president, or visionaries. Then, using a comparative template, junior executives and employees are measured against the visionary’s baseline. Supplemental and gap training modules are implemented to transition the employees to higher and more harmonious levels.
Sales Success Training
Increasingly productive and profitable sales forces are accomplished using one of two methods: qualitative/quantitative hiring and performance profiling. Initial hiring of salespeople requires intensive analysis of that person’s future potential as well as present accomplishments. As part of a full service human resource consulting firm, LifeThrive Learning Systems offers candidate testing selected from an available battery of 260 validated tests, administered by certified testing professionals. Again, LifeThrive’s empirical assessment methods can not only indicate potential for sales closing frustrations but also the potential for persuasion, determination, and perseverance. The program also confirms the individual’s most effective reward and motivation program. Performance profiling is described above.
Safety Development Training
Increasingly more manufacturing, assembly, and production companies are pro-actively seeking methods to minimize and eliminate job-related accidents and injuries. LifeThrive’s empirical program approach reveals those workers possessing unacceptable levels of Unsafe Work Disorder ("UWD"). Employees identified with UWD are then counseled, trained under the LifeThrive safety and redevelopment programs or, if necessary, removed from the hazardous positions.
Leadership Development Training
Corporate success hinges on the proper placement of assets, resources, and productivity toward business goals. Leaders of these successful companies must be able to quantify and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the company, including management and employees. Likewise, these leaders must be able to communicate effectively the developmental needs. LifeThrive’s proprietary assessment systems provides leaders not only with development programs for themselves (see Vision/Policy Training above) but also with the necessary data, communication/feedback tools, and the developmental process for his colleagues and subordinates.
Management Development Training
Truly a company’s developmental challenge lies in the effectiveness of the management and their cultivating efforts of the potential and capacity of their staff. LifeThrive’s training programs build the evaluative tools and communication skills of the management to accelerate their efforts of growing and developing employees.
