Strategic Partnering Services
Operate more strategically and to deliver greater value
Exemplary Performance (EP) professionals assist Human Resources (HR), Learning and Organizational Development (OD) functions to operate in a more strategic and business-linked manner. We also build the capability of Strategic Business Partners and Performance Consultants within these organizations.
Based on research, models and proven practices developed by Jim and Dana Robinson, authors of Strategic Business Partner and Performance Consulting, EP’s Strategic Partnering services consist of:
- Designing a Strategic Function – Support for organizations desiring to transition enabling functions from a tactical to a strategic approach.
- Skill Building Workshops – Equip your team to deliver performance and business results.
- Strategic Implementation Support – EP consultants deliver ongoing coaching, work environment and strategic project support.
- Presentations – EP’s strategic partnering consultants can set the tone for your conference or meeting. Learn more about our keynote presentations.
We also offer the acclaimed and award winning training and development ABCD System. This offering consists of the four course Optimizing Human Performance Workshops of Dr. Joe Harless. The Accomplishment-Based Curriculum Development System program is an integrated, holistic model in support of human performance. The ABCD System provides a cohesive framework for the processes of human performance.
This program consists of:
-
Front-End Analysis (FEA) Workshop – The tools presented in this workshop will enable participants to analyze workplace performance to ensure exemplary results.
-
Training Design Workshop – The focus of this extensive workshop is on designing training that addresses what employees need in order to perform their jobs; not unnecessary information that does not relate to the goal of the organization.
-
Training Development Workshop – The focus of this three-day workshop is on the development of job aids, instructional materials, tests, practice exercises, and instructor’s guides.
- Job Aids Workshop (JAWS) – The focus of the two-day workshop is on the development of job aids.
