As the only L&D person I felt lost, Saad served as my sounding board. He validated and expanded my strategy, helped me understand key company metrics in the shipping logistics industry. He built my confidence.

Catia Fernandes
Former Senior L&D Specialist, Sendcloud

We had an L&D strategy forming but our Executive Management Team didn't believe in it. We couldn't show business value and ROI. Saad in just 30 minutes helped us shift our thinking and develop a 1 pager plan that was a game changer and is aligned to shaping our growth in the housing industry.

What is "strategy enablement"?

Strategy enabling helps you execute strategic priorities of the business thereby improving business performance. You think long term and get ahead by predicting how company priorities may impact L&D initiatives. You then wrap your L&D initiatives around a Go-Live timeline for business priorities.

Use the 4 step "PICA" model below to help you do this. 👇
