Soft skills training for organisations

 - Australia-wide -

Committed to quality . . . passionate about learning

Brainpower Trainer

Since 1990, Brainpower Training has been helping companies and organisations (usually in workshops of around 10-16 people at a time) achieve a higher level of success by developing their people's Communication, Emotional Intelligence, Knowledge Capture, Productivity and Leadership.

They go away more thoughtful, transformed and hopeful.

Perhaps we can do the same for your people.

For a pdf of our company brochure, click here.

For example . . .

You may wish to enhance your managers' leadership skills or improve staff productivity.

Your goal may be to cultivate empowered teams who are emotionally-intelligent, who collaborate and communicate well.

You may want to keep your sales team motivated with sales training, or keep more clients with superlative customer service.

How many of your people are under pressure to get through tons of reading that just keeps pouring in?  Speed Reading is proven to work and can be learned in one day.

And you may ask yourself, how should our managers lead their teams to manage change?

Now is the time to upskill the brain power of your people. It is their commitment, productivity and ability to add value that keeps you competitive.

Investing now in building their time management or customer service or communication or knowledge capture or people skills puts you in the strongest position as the economy recovers. You will be a step ahead of your competitors and able to take advantage of opportunities quickly.

The skills of your people are the best guarantee of future prosperity, and the best investment a business can make in challenging times.



Does Brainpower offer public workshops for individuals to attend?

We do not schedule external workshops for individuals to attend. Instead perhaps consider our training DVDs . . . more info

Understand our process

Tailoring to personalise your content

Brainpower Training has a unique set of steps to tailor workshop content to situations your people face.

Diagnostic

We discuss your training needs in more detail, asking you some questions in the form of a brief diagnostic.  Your answers become 'Your Brief', describing your specific learning and business outcomes.

This is a useful summary serving as a blueprint for the assignment, describing next steps.  It's easy to pass on, both within your organisation, and as a briefing tool for our Facilitator, if you decide to go ahead.

Scenarios

For most topics, once your course date is confirmed, we send you our 'Scenarios' e-mail to forward to your people requesting them send in short situations or dilemmas they experience in the workplace, relevant to the workshop topic.  

Alternatively, you can simply come up with 5 or 6 that are representative.

Included in your investment

- Diagnostic
- Workbook - fully-illustrated, colour-printed
- Certificate of Successful Achievement
- Squeeze ball with Brainpower logo as workshop memento
