Programs
The Art of Learning takes a comprehensive approach to skill development and training.
Breadth and depth for optimal results.
There are a variety of areas where training and development come into play, and the requirements you have for each of these areas can range from very broad to very specific. No matter what the mix or complexity of programs required, The Art of Learning delivers.
With the philosophy of identifying and nurturing skill development at multiple levels, The Art of Learning takes a comprehensive approach to training in five key areas:
Strategic Selling
This program is designed to help sales professionals develop a strategic mindset. It is not about the tips and tricks associated with one of the world’s greatest professions. It is about helping you focus your efforts on what matters most in order to get the greatest return on your effort and close more sales. By focusing on the following 3 key principles we unlock the overall goal of increasing Sales Effectiveness.
Attracting
It’s about taking a strategic approach to finding key customers who can benefit most from what you have to offer. Knowing who you are and how you come across in the world is critical to successfully attracting the right clients who will buy!
Relating
The quality of the relationship is a key measurement in your sales effectiveness. Are you successfully connecting with people who are willing, and able, to buy from you?
Tantalizing
Defined as something that provokes expectation, interest or desire. Tantalizing means delivering a sales presentation that is so mesmerizing, that they can’t wait to buy!
Leadership Development
Cultivating leadership.
For the leaders you have today - and the ones you need to identify for the future - The Art of Learning offers multiple solutions for your specific leadership development needs.
One of the biggest challenges you may face is determining the appropriate extent to implement a leadership development program in your organization. It's likely you have a sense of your requirements but are finding it difficult to clearly define the specifics. Ranging from a one-time assessment or session to an ongoing development program, The Art of Learning will work with you to create an offering that speaks directly to your organization's needs.
The solutions set forth will be scalable as your organization's talent continues to grow, always building on the positive momentum.
Organizational Development
What an organization is - or wants to become - is often difficult to clearly define. And determining the definition is a challenging task. A challenge that requires skill and expert involvement.
The Art of Learning uses facilitation methods and procedures we have developed to continually deliver positive results. Starting with setting agendas through to strategy and goal definition, we draw on our years of experience, assisting in defining organizations, setting priorities, and working through change management to capture your organizational development goals.

- Brainstorming Sessions
- Gap Analysis
- SWOT
Meetings
- Agenda Creation

Team Building
Strength from the team for organizational goals.
The complex nature of teams is often difficult to address. Even without external factors, team functionality is dynamic in nature. And when there is any degree of change this becomes even more apparent. When a team is working well together, any shift from routine can be disturbing. If the team is not cohesive to begin with, that same shift can be hazardous.
At The Art of Learning, we have the depth of experience and the insight to work with teams of various structures to achieve desired results. Our approach is direct, yet sensitive to the nature of the particular group and its individuals. From basic understanding of a team and how it functions to team building around issues of dysfunction, we are able to instill the cohesive culture desired. Using experiential models, we will work on action plans to close existing gaps and accelerate the team through a process that demonstrates how to become a high-performing unit.
And for areas where the teams are running smoothly, positive team spirit is the essential component for ongoing success. The Art of Learning will develop and facilitate programs designed for teams that are currently working well. Whether your goal is to reward successes, revitalize or inspire, our programs help make your teams more cohesive than ever.
Executive Coaching
The individuals make the teams that make the organization
The root to building the best possible organization is making sure each individual is maximizing their potential. It's about identifying those who are capable and able to excel and providing the tools and guidance that will allow them to contribute as the leaders you need for near and long-term sustainability.
The Art of Learning has a variety of one-on-one coaching programs designed for individuals on the growth path. These are the people you have identified as your future leaders. And you need to equip them with the tools to succeed before they transition to a higher level or lateral position. They will learn the skills for the various components of their future roles, smoothing their next steps in leadership.
We will also assist in identifying and addressing potential problem areas before they become issues of concern.In each area, we have the depth of experience and expertise to address the issues that are critical to your ongoing success. From high-level refresher sessions to intense workshops on a specific issue, The Art of Learning will clearly identify a program that is the correct solution for you. And then we will deliver in a way that enlightens, motivates, and drives each person we engage.
No matter what stage you are at in your program - from recently recognizing a need to seeking an alternate approach to the last phase of your current curriculum, and every stage in between - we have the ability to step in and implement a program that works for you.
Fill the missing gap and add a new dimension to the depth of skills required for your organization to excel
