My approach to training starts with carefully assessing the needs of the organization. I then select or develop programs to match those needs, relying on a Guided Discovery approach that I learned from Les Shapiro and have adapted over the years to provide accelerated, highly interactive training that involves the learners at deep levels. I incorporate action learning, accelerated learning,  six sigma, and organizational development facilitation techniques to create a highly immersive and innovative approach to learning.  Check out my recommendations here.

I  training and development projects and assignments organizations in the Boulder, Colorado area. I am happy to talk with corporations, training contractors, and community organizations about helping you meet your training and development needs in Boulder, Louisville, Lakewood, Denver, and the complete front-range area of Colorado.
