Many times what you intend to deliver to your clients and what you actually deliver are two different things.  More often than not, this is due to a disconnect between stated intentions and actual behavior at all levels within your organization.  This is lethal to the organization, but it also creates a separate disconnect with your clients:  you say (and they expect) one thing – and you deliver another. 

To keep your Inside Reality in check with your newly created Outside Perception (or to “fix” your Inside Reality before creating your new Outside Perception), Ignite Business Services offers Ignite Inside!^SM which is the continuation of the original consulting practice I founded in 2001.

Some of the services offered under Ignite Inside!^SM are:

Leadership development and executive coaching sessions 

The success of your organization depends on the leadership of you and your top executives.  And it’s often lonely at the top:  you more than anyone feel the pressure of keeping up a good front.  We will work with you to create an open and honest environment that allows even the loneliest executive to open up and get some joy out of work!

Interactive workshops and tailored training sessions

Have you ever found yourself thinking, “We had training on that last year…why is such-and-such still operating the same old way?”  Many times this is because the training didn’t “take”; it was not internalized by the participants.  Whether at the executive level or throughout the rank and file, adults learn the most when they can participate, when their own ideas are listened to and incorporated, and when the material presented is relevant to their daily lives.  We believe that while certain concepts are universal, they must be presented in a way that participants can receive them openly.  We also believe that the “rank and file” have the most to offer the organization because after all, they are the ones doing the work!  So at Ignite Business Services, you won’t find any pat answers or boiler-plate training sessions.  Instead, we offer interactive workshops and tailored training sessions that usually involve some pre-work and always involve follow-up activities.  The best part is that your employees buy into the process because they participated in creating it! 

Productivity plan development

The ability to measure forward progress is a strong motivator for individuals and for teams.  Measurement, especially at the individual level, is increasingly becoming a challenge as cross-functional teamwork becomes the norm.  We offer extensive experience in creating productivity plans for individuals and teams that keeps them inspired and motivated.

As with our other services, we have a specific, systematic process for deploying Ignite Inside!^SM in client organizations.  We rely heavily on the DiSC Behavior Profile System, Steven Covey’s Seven Habits and Ken Blanchard’s Situational Leadership concepts.  Please contact us for more details.
