Training Workshops

At Greenbank we have been delivering effective and innovative training for over 20 years. However, we believe that training is an enabler to performance improvement – not an end in itself….

The secret of our success:

Before every assignment we will work with you to agree the business goals you are targeting –  we are experts at asking the right questions to pin these down!

We then combine this with our own experience in learning design and psychology to maximise the effectiveness of training. We are not wedded to any one theory or approach but have a series of building blocks that we can combine to produce a unique training design that will work for you.

Typical training building blocks:

  • 360 degree surveys and psychometric diagnostics
  • experiential exercises
  • role plays with actors or role rehearsals to practice difficult situations ahead of the real thing
  • action learning sets where members focus on their current live issues
  • co-coaching and peer feedback
  • business simulations
  • use of video feedback
  • webinars and telephone coaching to supplement workshops
  • practice and then more practice

What makes our training different?

It's real and practical

The Greenbank team combine a track record of success in operational roles with a passion for transferring those skills to others. This makes our training very real – yes we draw on relevant research and current theory but then it is totally grounded in the real world of work.

It delivers immediate results

For instance, we take the time to make sure our role plays and exercises use your language and target the current challenges your people are facing. People often say that our training is exceptional because they go away with immediate actions and solutions to their most pressing issues.

We deliver the right mix of support and challenge

People work hard on our training programmes – they find them challenging and demanding, just like their everyday work. But they are also supported – we always provide a safe place to try new things, so that everyone leaves the workshop feeling more confident and are committed to doing things even better.

We believe in learning by doing

Our training is probably the most active you can find – there are always plenty of opportunities to test out new skills and techniques, get feedback and coaching – and then try them out again. We really do believe that practice makes perfect!

Making learning stick

We know that it is difficult to change – however good the training, however committed the individual, the demands of the real world can get in the way. Action plans can slowly fade and die – without delivering results.

So we have developed a web based goal planning and tracking tool, PROMPT! to help people remain focussed on their actions, track progress and measure impact. It lets individuals seek feedback and e-coaching when they need it most and it allows the business to measure ROI.

What our clients say

"Enjoyable, useful, empowering!”

Project Manager, Atos

"I really feel that that was one of the best training courses I have had to date as I have real techniques ingrained in my mind now for how I can realistically deal with or approach negotiation situations."

Sales Manager, BT

"I found the course to be conducted in a very professional manner, focusing on practical role playing exercises in small Action Learning Groups which I very much enjoyed. The training environment was geared to learning and participants were encouraged to try new techniques."

Senior Programme Manager

"The training programs developed and delivered by Greenbank really helped our European sales team to better understand our clients. Ian spent the time to fully understand our business and tailored the workshops to reflect our real-world sales situations."

Tom Waite, Director of Business Development, Dow Jones

"Often I feel that advice given in training sessions is too obvious or too wishy-washy to stick in my mind, but there are just loads I’ve brought away from that course. It really helped to have so much role playing, something I’ve always dreaded, but it was definitely worth it!"

Sales Manager, IAM
