The Turbo Charging Process

7 Mileposts on the Road to Continuous Improvement

Turbo Leadership Systems proprietary Triple A Approach ensures the success of your training!

ACTION: Participant involvement is a hallmark of Turbo Leadership Systems (TLS) programs. TLS training is not a passive listening or a purely intellectual experience. We forget 80% of what we hear. We remember what we say and what we do. TLS programs get you "off your seat and on your feet."

APPLICATION: You develop and share applications, plans and commitments during each session, making it easy to see where, why, and how to immediately apply what you are learning. Deliberate new applications on the job create new behaviors and habits, producing lasting value for your organization.

ACCOUNTABILITY: Without positive accountability, people tend to postpone implementing newly-learned skills and practices. What is learned is soon forgotten, diminishing the value of the training. What sets TLS programs apart are formal reports presented to your team, demonstrating how you have actually implemented actions in key performance areas. This accountability ensures changed behavior, creation of new habits, and positive cultural impact.

Turbo's leadership training equips your team to surpass previous performance. You're positioned to: exceed all benchmarks; set new standards of excellence to "wow" internal and external customers; sustain shorter turnaround times; attain maximum returns on investments; and become the employer of preference. Your Turbo-trained leadership team yields breakthroughs while balancing performance and people needs.
