Positive ROI
"If you don't link investments directly to targeted performance metrics training and development will always be treated as a cost"
What will be the anticipated Positive ROI from your next training and development initiative?
Do you currently know?
- YES - If so, would you personally benefit from increasing the positive impact of that initiative?
- NO - Are you interested in applying a methodology that will track and grow the return on your investment?
In the current climate it can be a challenge to justify expenditure on any learning and development initiative. This challenge is exacerbated because most organisations have not yet established a stable process for determining the measurable impact of each training investment.
At Winning Teams we specifically partner with organisations of between 40 and 2000 employees across most market sectors, to:
- Clarify the definition of a Winning Performance
- Illuminate the Root Causes that are currently limiting performance
- Prioritise the investments that will rapidly address your current issues and realise the desired winning performance
- Build a Positive ROI business case for investment in training
- Evaluate the impact of each training intervention
- Identify solutions to maximise impact from current and future interventions

Our formula for success is a simple yet remarkably effective one that delivers real, measurable performance improvements where you need it most.

Grow the Impact of Your Training and Development
Would you like to be in a position where you don't have to defend your training and development budget against potential cuts?
You just need to change your emphasis from evaluating the quality of the training and development to evaluating the impact of your training and development. Training and development has no value until it is applied successfully!
Our research into the cause of failed training programmes shows that the causes can be attributed as shown below:

This research highlights the critical need to strengthen the bond between HR/Training and Business Management if every future intervention is to be deemed as a valuable success.
The need for training and development must be driven from within the business and the performance impact must ultimately be managed by the business. The HR/Training function must support the:
- Prioritisation of training and development needs in alignment with performance requirements
- Preparation and readiness for an impactful intervention
- Selection and design of the most appropriate intervention
- Tracking and expansion of the positive business impact
Our research shows that the critical point of focus must be to ensure that the majority of delegates/participants change their Focus, Mindset & Behaviours to positively impact performance as a direct result of each intervention and in so doing generate a positive return on investment from each training and development investment.
The chart below highlights this need and shows how much value can be 'left on the table' if this approach is not applied effectively.

The Basic Steps Required to Evaluate Performance Impact
- Establish and communicate a clear & valid set of intentions for each intervention prior to delivery
