Would you like to work on improving project management skills to start off on the right foot, continuously improve, or support some key decisions?
Our experience and research tell us that up to 75% of projects fail to meet original expectations due to at least one of the following 5 key problems:
- Lack of commitment.
- Inability to define project scope and manage change.
- Lack of resources.
- Unrealistic schedules.
- Poor definition and planning.
The LSA Project Management Best Practices Diagnostic Tool is based upon multi-industry project best practices and research. The results, combined with face-to-face interviews, are used to develop a targeted Project Results Blue Print to concretely define the action steps necessary to meet your goals.

When we talk to HR and training, they consistently tell us that learning initiatives such as sales negotiation training, performance management training or any other type of training fail for one of three reasons. Business executives tell us that all three assumptions are incorrect.
Do any of these actual quotes from HR and training clients sound familiar?
- People do not have the time to attend training.
- We do not have enough executive support or budget to do this right.
- We need to do a better job marketing what we are offering to employees so we can fill these classes.
These unfortunately common statements reflect the #1 reason that business unit executives, line and new managers believe that training initiatives fail...

Did you know that "talent mobility" is increasing as fast, if not faster than the performance management expectations of most companies?
While the majority of companies with more than 500 employees have already taken some steps to begin a succession planning process for senior management positions, most agree that they do not have the right "talent ready at the right time.
One of the key goals of any succession planning effort should be that there is no "hiccup" in seamlessly executing the business plan, at least from a talent and employee retention perspective.
To ensure success, we recommend implementing 5 key lessons learned from the field.

More and more organizations are finding that their Channels are not living up to their original performance expectations.
Channels are a complicated business, filled with nuance, complications, and outright complexity. What works in one situation might be counterproductive in another.
As a result, an important job for a channel leader or manager is to evaluate, adapt, and execute within a flexible framework that allows alignment across multiple objectives and metrics.

While almost every industry and profession continue to commit a greater proportion of their time and resources to key projects, up to 75% of their mission critical projects continue to fail to meet original expectations.

While many projects fail, others exceed or meet expectations.

In a previous issue of the Harvard Business Review, Larry Bossidy, the past CEO of AlliedSignal, describes interviewing as "the most flawed process in American business."
Based on over 25 years of experience helping organizations improve competency-based behavioral interviewing training and practices, we couldn't agree more.
More and more of our clients have increased hiring. More and more of our clients utilize an inconsistent and unproven interviewing process that takes too much time and does not produce the desired results.
While we know that hiring the right people significantly decreases costs and increases productivity, fewer and fewer organizations have the skills to interview effectively-they don't have a clear picture of the ideal candidate nor how to ask the questions that will predict performance once hired.
We think the problem is obvious.

If you are working long hours while trying to add important members to your team, you should be asking yourself lots of questions.
Based on over 25 years of experience helping organizations improve competency-based behavioral interviewing training and practices, we suspected you might be wondering how best to accomplish this objective.
Despite the best intentions, 90% of all terminations are due to performance factors that never appeared on a resume. Most companies exert 2-4 times more time and effort to interview and select new employees than is required.
It is possible to hire "A" players faster with less effort.
