Facilitation and related decision support services are an integral part of implementing management, organizational and business improvement interventions.

874-3: Training Services. 

The training HD provides under this procurement is designed to enhance the knowledge, skills and abilities of agency personnel to begin or continue management, organizational, or business improvement efforts. All training provided is aligned with and driven by the agency's need to enhance its organizational performance.  HD offers off-the shelf- training or customized off-the shelf training and related materials, including handbooks, transparencies, slides and other materials.

Self Mastery:  The Intrapersonal Dimension of Leadership Program. This highly intensive, three-day training program is aimed at equipping participants with the skills of personal mastery.  Effective leaders are masters of themselves; that is, they are consciously aware of the impact their values, attitudes, perceptions and behaviors have on others.  There is considerable evidence that self-awareness and self-acceptance are strongly related to personal adjustment, interpersonal effectiveness, and life success.   The knowledge leaders poses about themselves is central to improving not only their leadership and people skills but also their sense of well being in uncertain and changing times.  Through a 360 degree leadership assessment, one-on-one coaching, and direct feedback in a small group setting, participants are challenged to: examine their personal patterns of perception, communication and behavior; identify and address the personal blocks that inhibit their leadership effectiveness; and learn and implement strategies to improve their leadership effectiveness.

Executive Team Development.  As organizational tasks become more complex and technical due to changes in the organization’s environment, the need to work collaboratively and efficiently to solve problems is critical.  Further the development of quality solutions requires tapping the creativity of many individuals not one. This three-day program optimizes an organization’s executive group’s performance by developing the personal traits and team dynamics that underlie and support more creative problem solving and effective decision-making throughout the organization.  This is a dynamic interactive process focused on developing the key attitudes and behaviors necessary to sustain a high performance focus throughout the organization.  This program usually includes executive coaching and other follow-up support.

Individual and Team Empowerment. This three-day, experiential-based course is, aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of mid-level managers, supervisors and their staffs to work in a team-based environment.  Participants are introduced to the characteristics of high performance teams; identify individual and team barriers to becoming a high performance team; and learn how to take personal responsibility and accountability for their individual and the team’s success.

Confrontation Skills for Performance Accountability. The ability to confront attitudinal problems is an art.  It requires highly refined communication skills and intuition.  This three-day, experiential program is designed to equip executives with the skills to confront the attitudinal issues underlying many conflict situations to achieve accountability for performance in the workplace.  Participants are videotaped handling real-time situations and coached on the skills necessary to confront them with confidence.

Collaborative Conflict Management Training. Conflict is an every day part of organizational life.  Conflict can have a devastating effect on productivity, morale, teamwork and ultimately in the achievement of the organizations goal as well as its bottom line.  Effective conflict management skills are critical to opening lines of communication, promoting collaboration, and ensuring accountability for performance.  This three-day course is designed to improve the collaborative conflict resolution skills of participants at all levels of an organization. The course is also designed as a team building and problem-solving workshop for intact groups as well as interdependent groups or organizations where conflict is an impediment to working together effectively.

Customer Service Training.  Quality improvement in any organization requires three critical elements: focus on the customer, attention to the way work gets done, long-term commitment—top-to-bottom organizational support.  This class focuses on the inter-personal skills of effective customer service. Participants in this class will: learn to define their internal and external customers and their respective requirements for customer service; identify the challenges of customer service in government; understand and demonstrate the feelings and behaviors associated with good customers service; learn skills for handling difficult customers; learn and apply problem solving techniques to handling customer demands/complaints during skill development sessions, and learn strategies for preventing and dealing with burn out.

Focusing on Customers Training.  Customer focus is central to understanding quality management and to the transformation of government.  The goal of this course is to provide participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to create a customer-driven work environment.  Participants will learn why customer requirements are the drivers of the agency’s work; understand the challenges of quality service in government; identify and address barriers to fostering a customer driven organization; learn how to identify key customers and how to assess their expectations; learn how to integrate customer expectations into key organizational processes; learn how to manage relationships with internal and external customers, as well as suppliers; and understand the phases of implementing a customer focus effort within their agency.

Understanding the Quality Improvement Process and Tools. The purpose of this course is to provide participants (typically process improvement teams) with an understanding of the quality improvement process in the total context of the organization and to introduce them to the tools used in the application of the process.  Participants will: gain a systems view and understanding of the systems approach to quality improvement; identify and apply, with a customer focus, the practices of the quality improvement process; learn a variety of problem solving techniques, and learn how to select appropriate methods and tools in quality initiatives.

Advanced Facilitation Skills Training. Achieving improvement goals requires collaboration, cooperation and teamwork.  Since teamwork does not just happen, teams often require the assistance of a facilitator.  The difference between a good facilitator and a powerful one is having the highly refined intuition and interpersonal skills to surface and address the attitudinal issues underlying many conflict situations between and among group members that prevent the group from achieving its improvement goals.  In this intensive, experiential-based training program, facilitators examine and address their personal barriers to effectively handling such situations with confidence and learn and apply strategies for facilitating difficult conflict situations within a group, using real-time situations.
