ROI of a Corporate Workshop

Corporate training workshops have the best ROIs.
I know this because after attending one,
I generated £ millions for my employer.

30 years in corporate employment and I experienced my fair share of training workshops. Some were underwhelming, most were interesting, valuable and even inspiring.

But a couple were pure dynamite.

I’m sure you’ve been there…..the offsites where you assemble with colleagues, pour coffees, take seats, and test out the free pen before the trainer enters the room and then BOOM your life changes forever.

Where you can’t stop taking notes.

Where you phone your significant other at the end of the day and say, “you’ve got to hear this!”

Where an unbreakable neuro-connection has been laid, undeniable myelin, that will change the course of your career. Your life, even.

And the ROI can be off the charts for the employer.

Mid-way through my career I attended a workshop centred on self-leadership. The trainer flew in from the US, stood in front of our leadership team of 12, and told a story from his career that was so devastatingly personal it pierced my soul.

I obviously needed to hear it.

In the subsequent 12 months, I took those life-lessons in leadership and delivered £ millions to the bottom line. All for a minimum of financial investment.

And don’t just take my word as a finance director – I have seen how these workshops can impact on sales teams, people teams, R&D, customer services staff, shopfloor workers, the whole spectrum of an organisation.

Anyone, in fact, who can touch the bottom line of a p&l.

Because everyone can.

Everyone has untapped, even unlimited, potential.
