TRANSFORMATIONAL

“The Brierfield Group is dedicated to delivering high quality advanced education to senior and high potential managers on key aspects and methods of transforming a manufacturing company into a high performance culture through its Advanced Management Program and Workshops.

TRANSFORMATIONAL

The Brierfield Group’s “Value Equation” is based on providing managers with the tools and most importantly the ”insights” to successfully and significantly improve performance by truly transforming their areas of responsibility.

TRANSFORMATIONAL

The Transformational Workshop is sponsored and attended by a leader and their management team. It is an instrumental part of the leader’s program to create real and sustainable performance improvement. The workshop provides the team with both the knowledge and a shared understanding of methods they can use to create “world class” performance. This gained understanding by the team of how to create a successful change program forms a consensus of action and direction!

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

We work with managers who are seeking a “true game changer” in performance rather than incremental improvements. These managers are often engaged in a turnaround situation where there is a “life or death battle” for the future of their organization taking place or they must simply meet the ever increasing demands of their “stakeholders”. In either case, small changes are not enough, they need results and time is not often on their side.

They need Change.They need Results.They need them Now!

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

The workshop is focused on managers who are in a position of authority to truly change the culture and the ways of working. They have the means and are seeking the tools to create high performance results. They understand and support the need to transform their organization.

• They are the Leaders.• They are the “Change Agents”.• They are the Future!

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

The Transformational Workshop is a fast paced comprehensive three day interactive workshop specifically designed for key management personnel who have the responsibility and authority to transform the way a company, division, or factory operates.

• Workshop participates learn which are the most effective tools in their tool box and when to use them.

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

types of companies.• Show how using such methods as problem solving and agile

thinking transforms an organization.

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

Insights

and an integral part of the workshop, this step is perhaps the most vital.

• The participate gains the critical “insights” that will determine the success of the transformation.

• This step goes beyond the basic understanding of methods of change and elements of creating a high performance culture to developing an advanced understanding of what works and how to apply them.

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

• This step focuses on how you can transform you company by using the Methods, Actual Examples and Insights gained.

• Throughout the workshop the participants are encouraged to ask questions and discuss specific issues or examples in their company that could benefit from a particular method.

TRANSFORMATIONAL WORKSHOP

You know the value of knowledge and insight in transforming performance, but at this moment, you don’t know if the Transformational Workshop is worth your time or the company’s money. Fair enough. You give us your time and if you don’t think the workshop was worth it, you don’t pay. You pay the participant's fee only after the three day session and you are 100% satisfied!
