Our
Services
We work in close
partnership with our clients. Together, we typically assess
the situation first, identify the needs, then apply the relevant
tools and monitor the results of our leadership development
interventions. These activities are measured against defined
and agreed performance indicators so the impact of the leadership
training can be assessed. We aim for long-term engagements
with clients rather than short courses with no follow-up as
we believe leadership development is an on-going process which
needs to continually adapt to the fast-changing nature of
the business environment.
Our customized solutions process
Step 1: Identify business needs

Leadership
Development Solutions
Many organizations
today are outsourcing their training departments and are looking
for external training providers to manage their overall competence
development needs. Other organizations might consider themselves
too small to invest in developing their own trainers and designing
corporate training programs. When it comes to leadership development,
an off-the-shelf training program bought from an external
provider seldom works in a way that leads to real tangible
benefits. It takes an in-depth insight into the corporate
values and the culture of the organization, as well as a profound
understanding of the surrounding business environment to design
a leadership development program that will create the desired
change.
APLDI works in close
partnership with each Client to identify their specific leadership
development needs and to design a unique program or curriculum
to fit those needs. We use a gradual approach when designing
in-house leadership development programs, covering the different
contexts of leadership such as individual development; managing
others, team management and managing organizational change.

Management
Team Workshops
If you want to create
a workplace where employees are highly productive and committed,
you need to start with building a strong and effective Management
Team. By diagnosing the current team development stage and
identifying the actions and changes in behavior that are necessary
to bring the team forward, the Management Team builds a platform
from which future challenges and opportunities can be dealt
with more successfully. Through a set of inspiring activities
that are arranged outside the normal working environment,
the Management Team members get an opportunity to reflect
over their way of working and to give and receive constructive
feedback.
One of our key strengths at APLDI is to facilitate Management
Team Workshops that support specific organizational needs
and circumstances.

how we can support your Management Team.
Managerial
and Executive Self-Assessments
We conduct self-assessment
programs tailored to the specific needs and requirements of
your organization, applying an assessment for development
methodology.
The “Personal Side of Leadership” – is a
4 days residential program allowing participants to focus
on the parts of the leadership role that have to do with relations
between people. Leadership can only be exercised in relation
to those who follow. Good, effective leadership is therefore
based on clear self-awareness, as well as a good understanding
of how you are perceived by others. This program is held in
an isolated setting, giving the participants the possibility
to focus on themselves and the group. Some of the program
ingredients include:
- How we perceive ourselves and others and how we are perceived
by others
- The communication process
- Beliefs and values
- The process of feed-back, how we give and receive feed-back
- Self-evaluation, assessing your own leadership
Contact us should you be interested in learning more about
our self-assessment solutions.
Individual
Coaching
We offer individual
coaching sessions to enhance personal leadership.
One-to-one coaching is suitable for the individual who would
benefit from a combination of individual learning and learning
in a team setting. When provided prior to a program or workshop
experience, individual coaching can be used to establish the
relationship between the coach and the participant, and to
deliver some initial assessment data and feedback. Individual
coaching can also help the participant after attending a program
to maintain momentum after returning to work, to follow up
on personal development plans or just to discuss issues at
work with someone outside the own organization.

our coaching approach.
