The insynergi Change Academy will deliver a range of skills improvement through a combination of bespoke training, coaching, and mentoring schemes. The framework is structured to operate at a number of levels, including project sponsors, project leaders, project managers, and Project associates. Academy members will also be encouraged to continue their development through a self-sustaining community of professionals. This continuous development plan intends to help close the gap among learning, implementing new skills, and delivering tangible results.
Eddie Kilkelly, Managing Director at insynergi, explains, "Research suggests that over $6.2 trillion is lost every year as a result of failed projects, even though considerable resources are set aside for training each year. There has been a shift in mind set within organisations as HR directors and C-level executives realise that expenditure on training courses does not always lead to improved performance."
"This is where our programme truly delivers on that expectation. Our Change Academy is structured to concentrate on the skills, beliefs, and attitudes required to bring about individual and organisational improvements. Our Academy actively steers away from generic training courses, although we will underpin our programme with the basics. Participants will gain practical advice, insight, and knowledge from highly experienced personal coaches and mentors."
The insynergi portfolio of support includes
- Project Health Checks – insynergi provides an external assurance capability that can review the performance and status of any project.
- Team Assessment – Using a variety of diagnostic tools, insynergi can help to understand the precise nature and makeup of project teams. Competency assessments can be used to pinpoint the one or two skills that would have the most significant impact upon the team’s performance. Personality profiling can be used to identify the emotional "gaps" within the team.
- Coaching/Mentoring – Access to an experienced coach or mentor can be one of the most important resources available. The value of having an experienced and "critical" mentor to support project decision making can be immense. insynergi matches their pool of industry-experienced professionals and makes support available face to face on site, by telephone, or via email.
- Apprenticeship schemes – insynergi, as part of the Outsource Education Group, is already working with a number of organisations advising where apprenticeship schemes can be developed to support the organisation’s long-term goals.
- Interim Support – When resources are fully utilised, but an urgent additional project is identified, there is often a danger that it can be unnecessarily delayed. insynergi provides high-quality project resources to work on short to medium-term assignments.
- Facilitation – insynergi’s expert team is available to help facilitate workshops, including board meetings, programme definition, and strategic kick-off meetings. Well practiced in keeping to the agenda and moving things forward, – insynergi’s consultants can provide the freedom for companies to engage in the discussion rather than manage the process.
- Software Support – insynergi can also help organisations set up and use a range of software tools in order to keep project monitoring and control processes simple and effective.
