How we work
Exceed expectations Win win Keep it practical

• Exceed expectations
• We always try to do more than is expected of us.
• With our clients this may mean offering proactive
  ideas, thinking of new and better ways of doing
  things, or simply being as flexible as possible.
• On courses or workshops it may mean giving
  participants the chance to e-mail us after the
  course for further advice, or staying behind to
  offer one to one tuition.
• Whatever the subject and whoever we are working
  with, we aim to go that bit further to do that
  bit more.
• For example in a recent assignment for one of the
  world's largest technology companies, we produced
  12 training modules under tight timescales, and
  still delivered early.

How we work
Exceed expectations Win win Keep it practical

• Win win
• We will only enter into an activity if ALL
  parties are happy.
• Though few businesses have this as an objective,
  we find it is surprisingly easy to achieve. It
  makes for very enjoyable work and builds strong,
  lasting relationships because everyone works
  towards a common goal.
• For example, whilst working with an international
  airline under a tight budget we constructed a
  reciprocal service agreement to ensure that they
  received the training they needed at the time
  they needed.

How we work
Exceed expectations Win win Keep it practical

• Keep it practical
• We focus on transferring quality information to
  participants.
• We believe theory is only relevant if applied to
  real life work situations. And we practice what
  we preach. All our trainers have proven business
  and work records.
• This makes our training direct, interesting and
  packed with ideas that are both memorable and
  applicable giving participants practical,
  tangible ways to improve their everyday work.
• For example, an employee in a world leading
  energy company contacted us to say he had saved
  over ten times the training cost in his very next
  company purchase, using the negotiation
  techniques we had shown him.

Management development
walk this way
Managing efficiently
...requires a strong command of business, people
and technical skills. The Goodfoot Management
Development Programme helps first-time managers
with strong technical ability to become managers
with powerful leadership skills.
The Programme uses a holistic approach, combining
classroom-led training with self-study and work
assignments alongside on-the-job training. There
is also the option for e-mail or telephone
support via a Goodfoot personal coach.

rather than be lectured at." Project Manager,

Interactive digital video (IDV)
step into the future
IDV has been designed as the ultimate in-house
self learning tool. It is ideal for training your
staff on in-house procedures, processes and best
practices. The tool combines video presentation,
with WORD, PowerPoint, Excel documents and HTML
web pages. The result is a highly flexible tool
focused on key company issues.
A technology company wished to train a large
number of people on a limited budget. Goodfoot
provided classroom training for key people, then
converted that training into an IDV package
incorporating in-house documents for wider roll
out.

On-line coach
stay a step ahead
Many companies have implemented on-line learning,
few have proved that the investment was
worthwhile. At Goodfoot we believe that on-line
learning is best used as a support and reference
tool for skills learned. On-line coach has been
designed to help staff revise their knowledge,
and the checklist approach of On-line coach
enables staff to prepare for real work situations.

Training measurement
take the right path
Training is a key contribution to business
performance. Training providers should be able to
measure that contribution and prove their
results. At Goodfoot we apply our own 4 Step
Methodology to ensure that Senior Staff can be
fully satisfied that their money has been spent
wisely.

• Skills for the modern workplace

Bid management
Whether working on multi million pound bids or a
pitch worth only a few thousand pounds, the
difference between success and failure can be
small. Most companies invest immense time and
resource in preparing a pitch or bid but fail to
maximise their potential in the final and often
crucial part of the process - the presentation
itself. We help present your work in the best
light, look at who is on the presentation team
and coach everyone in making their part as clear,
persuasive and influential as it can be. The
results speak for themselves. Last year we
coached clients in bid presentations amounting to
over 45 million in value, including Facilities
Management, Maintenance Support, Construction,
and Advertising.

• Skills for the modern workplace

Process management
Modern businesses operate in a competitive and
demanding environment. The pressure is on to
maximise the effectiveness of internal processes.
Companies that refuse to change will die. Those
that accept change and manage it well will
thrive. Goodfoot has a Process Management
Approach that you can apply to any business
process, large or small. The aim is to equip
your people with the skills to ensure
effectiveness of teams, departments and the
organisation as a whole. The Goodfoot Process
Management approach enables you to actually
realise business benefits rather than just aspire
to them. "Process improvement is a key ongoing
activity for managers, and it is also an activity
for which most managers are singularly
unprepared."

Skills for the modern workplace
The modern workplace is a challenging
environment. Unrealistic customer or colleague
demands, constant time pressures, never-ending
new technology, floods of e-mails, multi-tasking
and even multiple bosses. All this makes for more
stress and a fear of being out of
control. Goodfoot Skills for the Modern
Workplace focuses on how to be productive even
in the toughest of environments. The course is
made up of short modules packed with hints, tips
and tricks to help participants feel refreshed,
ready to cope and confident they can perform back
to the best of their ability again. ASAP please
!! - getting to grips with technology -
results with people - juggling
workloads managing colleagues - managing
customers - managing a remote team - keeping
your cool
