Engagements generally begin with a meeting between Dave and the CLO or VP of Training followed by a meeting with the leadership team or individual interviews with leadership team members. These initial meetings serve to identify or better understand the most important issues facing the learning organization. Following agreement on the issues to be addressed, a workout session is often used to develop recommendations and craft a detailed action plan.
