Q&A About Business Leaders Saving Precious Time
FAQ: How would you summarize what's in this methodology for new adopters?
ANS: Before each business event, read SKILLS4SURE content to quickly drive relevant knowledge about business skills to the top-of-mind and remember exactly what to say and do to achieve more success. Low in price to acquire, SKILLS4SURE smart cards continuously refresh critical business skills throughout one's entire career — at no on-going cost. Combined with the SKILLS4SURE training programs that provide vital knowledge to help change people's behavior, it's a game changer for personal performance.
FAQ: Which business skills are important for organizations?
ANS: Most companies need the same skills competencies as Global-100 businesses but they don't have the same time allotments and budgets for training and mentoring. The biggest cost is employee time away from personal job duties. During challenging times, the cost of time away from the job is often enough to severely reduce company training budgets and schedules.
FAQ: What differentiates the SKILLS4SURE methodology?
ANS: The SKILLS4SURE content delivery model conveys only best business practices. Eschewing affirmations like "I am the best," SKILLS4SURE training content focuses on exactly what to say and do for more success. The SKILLS4SURE smart card products for mentoring provide a content refresh capability that is both rapid and easy-to-use. This model reduces the consulting resources consumed for coaching and mentoring of business skills, thus reducing both time invested and the budgetary impact. Also, the smart card products help enable a lower price-point for the mentoring and coaching activities that take place after training.
FAQ: How can a smart card product convey business mentoring?
ANS: All SKILLS4SURE smart cards are written in a powerful, proven format. Action verbs begin every best practice. Each best practice is conveyed by one short line of text to maximize speed of acquisition and comprehension. This writing style rapidly transfers to and efficiently directs the human brain to place each message at top-of-mind.
FAQ: What is this proven format?
ANS: You may already use it. This is the same style that personal productivity experts teach for writing a list of actionable goals. Also, it is the style that marketing communications experts recommend for bullet points in a business presentation.
FAQ: How long will the business skills so refreshed be remembered?
ANS: A short retention span does occur. Metaphor: we have to take vitamin 'C' every day because the body doesn't retain it. Likewise, students can pass an exam by cramming, but a day after, one won't remember all of what they took in for the test.
FAQ: If one doesn't retain smart card refreshing for long, what makes up for that gap?
ANS: The solution is repeated use of the simple, portable smart cards prior to each business event — every phone call, visit and meeting. Learn while you earn. Follow this process for 22 days and sense how much your personal-best business performance has been improved.
FAQ: What is the role for aspirational content?
ANS: Clients' requirements for aspirational material are proportional to the leadership culture of each organization and many excellent resources exist. Aspirational material may encompass elements such as motivation, inspiration, affirmation and the like. When aspirational material is requested, we obtain the content and presenter from one of our best-in-class partners.
