Whether you need to build specialty technology skills within your IT team or shape your next group of IT leaders through cross-skilling, a customized talent succession plan is a great place to start. That plan should take into account your critical talent and roles, assess where your skills gaps occur, and then how you can help solve for those gaps through education and/or technology training programs. In working with other tech leaders, we know it’s about creating agile, continual learning programs that keep your team’s tech skills sharp while also providing a versatile set of tools your team can use as they progress into leadership.
While each program is customized based on your needs, here are some of the most common skills that we help technology teams build:
Leaders who know how to apply the fundamental management theories that support organizational stability while driving programs forward, can help strengthen organizational growth and performance. Could your team be enhanced by adding core competency skills in administrative leadership, planning, project management, and resource management?
Building a diverse and inclusive team and workplace culture is integral to your company’s success. Through professional examples we explore diversity, equity and inclusion within business and client relationships and things to consider when engaging different groups. They’ll also be given space to help them develop a clear perspective on their role in providing a diverse, equitable, and inclusive work environment.
Security is a critical facet of any modern business. We can help your tech team understand how to troubleshoot hardware, operating systems, networks, and manage cloud computing systems in a secure fashion. We do this through hands-on exercises and projects, teaching your team how to create, plan, implement and monitor security solutions to protect critical data and networks and prevent future attacks. Your team can also explore the design of an organization’s security systems procedures, standards, protocols and policies, as well as how to ensure operational security follows standards, policies and laws.
Properly executed networking and programming initiatives can lead to a simpler, more streamlined experience for your workforce and your customers. Some of the networking skills we cover are networking media, the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP), routing and switching and small network configuration and troubleshooting. Our programs can help your team learn about protocols and techniques necessary to program, document, test and debug applications and software packages.
Help your future leaders understand the foundation of business and management principles involved in IT infrastructure, information security, cyber-security, strategic planning, and resource allocation.
Your team’s ability to communicate is crucial to project management and completion, but building confidence, clarity and credibility takes practice. Your future leaders might benefit from skills such as professional speaking, technical writing, research, developing written and verbal communications, creating presentations and providing management support.
Managing a technology project’s timeline, cost and quality is especially prudent in these times of agile development and sprint cycles. Empowering your team to initiate, plan, execute and monitor multi-level programs can help drive productivity and efficiency. We even take into account risk analysis, cost control and performance objectives, conflict resolution and the use of project management software.
Data mining, business intelligence and managing big data is something you’re likely grappling with. Accelerating your team’s ability to gather, store, report and analyze important data through skills like business analytics, social network analysis, relational database management and data warehousing, data modeling and decision trees can help them understand and report on business objectives to help drive positive results.
Guiding your team to better understand the fundamental management theories that drive organizations and programs forward can create better organizational relationships. Consider your tech leaders of tomorrow, could they use a skill boost in leadership, planning, project management and resource management?
With marketing technology and demand generation being a large driver of leads for sales, your team might benefit from understanding marketing fundamentals like consumer intent, creating promotions, developing advertising campaigns and tracking key performance indicators (KPIs). Through fascinating case studies, interactive tutorials and real-world projects, our programs can help your team understand this key revenue driver.
Whether you need to improve your team’s business acumen or bolster specific capabilities such as project management or your cyber security measures, our programs are designed to provide your team with the skills to help increase efficiency. Through the thoughtful application of our skills training, your team can finetune their troubleshooting skills to reduce data loss, network interruptions and other time-consuming technology issues while better partnering with teams across the organization to help you stay competitive.
Finding quality talent is merely the first step, keeping them engaged and their careers progressing is what can take you to the next level. What’s likely standing in their way is the means to develop the skills they need to be your future leaders. Help them shine by building skills pathways for them to achieve their goals and in turn drive a more engaged and productive team.
Your diversity, equity and inclusion goals have been set, now it’s time to align objectives and solutions to meet those goals. Oftentimes education can be a barrier for career progression, so why not try and alleviate that obstacle for underrepresented talent? We can help you build a diverse team as bright as your vision.
We offer flexible, digitally-enabled learning pathways to help your team develop the skills they need today and in the future.
We work with you to design ways to raise your team's skills in efficient ways. We know your people’s time is valuable, so your workforce development solution needs to allow your team to upskill or cross-skill while maintaining their productivity.
