“Errigal undertook the Management Matters diagnostic exercise as part of a wider development agenda within the company that was seeking to position the company for a significant growth phase. The company and in particular the Management Team found that the results provided not only a statement of where we were as a business in terms of key practices and processes but highlighted what global best practice actually means in the context of our business. From this we were able to prioritise a number of initiatives around best practice and to continually challenge ourselves especially in areas such as Talent Management and the development of key performance indicators.”

Aodh O’Domhnaill Managing Director, Errigal Seafood

Our approach to executive education is characterised by intense practicality, combining current best practice with a clear focus on the application of learning in the workplace. Our Training Review & Certification is therefore designed to ensure that our Corporate Plus Members benefit from a tangible transfer of learning into the organisation, while individual managers develop their competencies and gain a valuable management qualification.

“As long-standing Corporate Members, we’ve seen IMI really react to the changing needs of our business and managers and I’m impressed at how the IMI team has responded to our needs and developed and enhanced the value proposition to meet our requirements – the introduction of Management Training Review & Certification is a good example. Over the last 5 years we had built an extensive in-house curriculum meeting the business requirements of our organisation but wanted to benchmark and validate the robustness of our programmes from an external perspective. IMI reviewed our approach and worked with us to design a practical assessment framework around some priority programmes to ensure the learning was applied to support the needs of the business. We’re really pleased with the outcome and support we received from IMI and the feedback from individual managers who’ve gone through the programme and achieved certification has been exceptionally positive.”

Eamonn Eaton Head of Group Learning & Engagement, Bank of Ireland

“I believe the critical importance of management development to organisations, the economy and wider society is often under-appreciated. As someone who has worked at CEO level in both for profit and not-for-profit organisations I consider myself to have a personal responsibility, both within and beyond my organisation, to help address this. I’ve been a member of the IMI Council since 2007. Personally, I’ve benefited greatly from the opportunity to meet and engage with my peers in other organisations and feel privileged to help shape the future direction of management education at the IMI.”

Barry Dempsey CEO, Irish Heart Foundation
