L&D advisory

L&D Advisory: the PM-Partners approach

By blending expert advisory and consulting with specialist in-house training, our approach is proven to achieve effective, long-term results. We customise every solution to meet your desired outcome, leading to a noticeable impact on operational performance and your bottom line.

A combined training and advisory solution that’s tailored to your needs

Organisations across the globe are struggling to adapt, faced with an increasingly disparate workforce and significant budget cuts while at the same time needing to improve profitability. It’s now more important than ever to strategically invest in internal capability uplift, reducing the cost of outsourced talent, retaining loyal resources and creating a more efficient, profitable in-house delivery model.

Traditional training provides crucial theoretical grounding, but often isn’t applied in a way that delivers true capability uplift back in the workplace. Similarly, advisory can deliver solid project outcomes, but effective transformational change is rarely sustained once consultants leave.

Drawing on decades of global client experience, PM-Partners blends specialist training with expert advisory services to deliver a far more effective model for change. We work closely with organisations to develop a customised L&D solution that’s tailored to your unique objectives, challenges and capabilities, and offer ongoing mentoring and advice to ensure you’re set up for success long after we’re gone.

We work closely with you to understand your business and project goals, L&D objectives and budget, defining clear, measurable outcomes. Combining strategic, hands-on consultation with the relevant capability assessments enables us to create a tailored solution that delivers maximum returns.

• Business case and strategic roadmap
