In a knowledge based economy people carry the key assets.  Often it is said “Every evening the company’s assets walk out of the door.  Thank God most of them choose to return the next morning!” 

Highly mobile people, portfolio careers, changing loyalty patterns and expectations of the work-life balance create challenges for managers and leaders.  ELMC programmes help you get the best out of your people – today and in the changing tomorrow.

Many managers are promoted because of their specialist skill – not their natural management skill.  We help Professionals become Managers.  All managers need to be leaders, too.  Our programmes enable people at all levels become inspiring leaders.  We particularly specialise in working with technical managers.
  

In-Company Courses

No standard, off-the-peg course will be appropriate for your particular mix of individuals or your specific objectives.  Our in-company workshops and courses are tailored to produce the bespoke result you need.  Run for your people they bring about significant cultural and performance shifts through longer-term mutual support given by colleagues trained together.

Open Courses

Cross-fertilisation of ideas and experience is a key side benefit of our open courses.  ELMC runs a small suite of open short courses on specialist topics to meet the needs of individuals where an in-company course is not appropriate. These allow people to explore, experiment and learn in a safe space - away from colleagues’ critical gaze.

 Working across Cultures

Work groups, customers and suppliers increasingly cross international divides.  Misunderstandings arise because different nationalities think differently and consider different things to be important.  ELMC open and in company workshops help people develop sensitivity to other cultural positions and improve their ability to communicate across borders.

People Processes

Performance Development systems, Competency Models, Appraisals, Training Needs Analysis, Coaching and Mentoring systems are ways to get the best from your people.  They need to be carefully designed to fit your developing culture and introduced with appropriate training or support.
