Oakwood Training Ventures
In the world of corporate training, a constant evolution of the mind is
desirable, not just for work-place effectiveness, but for sheer personal
development and competitiveness. In the words of William Arthur Ward, a famous
American writer of inspirational maxims who lived between 1921 and 1994, “The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher
explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.”
We at Oakwood Training Ventures demonstrate and inspire you to learn
and evolve through our training modules in each of the five domains we work in.
In some companies, learning and
development is just a part of the calendar while in others, a serious
concerted effort is ensued so as to make employees more productive. We choose
to partner with all who think learning and development should be a regular
initiative and can jointly design a training calendar with us.
Our workshops are delivered on site as well as through open sessions in
collaboration with similar companies from the same segment. With over 134
modules and a strong contingent of Lead Facilitators, we seek to be your
training partner over the years. Our workshops come with a standing assurance
of 90 days post-training support and a full refund within the first 45 minutes
of any of our workshop should any participant choose to discontinue.
CREDO
The learning from
our workshops is guaranteed to be as strong as an Oak Tree. Unshakeable, deeply rooted, high-value, everlasting,
and precious as ever; we guarantee it.
ABOUT
US
Since February 2011, we have been in business. Oakwood
Training Ventures is a start-up training and executive coaching firm. We are
mentored by some very senior industry professionals and academicians, many of
whom are also our key facilitators.
As a start-up we
set up a home-based office, to keep costs low, which we have duly registered
with statutory authorities. We also have signed up with Regus virtual offices
for usage of their facilities across India as and when needed. As a team of
professionals, we collaborate on a regular basis for all domain specific
training programmes. Most of our work is online which minimises the need for a
separate commercial premises and additional overheads.
So far, we have
delivered three workshops. The first workshop was on Stress Management for Housewives (Feb 2011) in which we have
had six participants. The second workshop was on Finance for Non-Finance Executives (Mar. 2011) in
which we have had 24 participants and the third workshop was on Customer Satisfaction for Bankers
(June 2011) in which we had 31 participants from five banks.
We have a series
of workshops ready to be delivered between September 2011 and March 2012. Some
of the workshops are high-value workshops meant exclusively for senior
executives in the top management cadre, while the remaining are economically
priced workshops meant for junior and mid-level managerial staff.
We work in five
major domains, apart from an academic programme which we are re-developing so
that it fits into the curriculum.
Our workshops are
in the following domains –
a)
Banking
b) Finance
c)
Quality
& Safety (In association with Lloyd’s Register
Quality Assurance)
d) Human Resource
e)
Generic
We offer 134
training programmes in all the five domains through a team of veteran
facilitators with rich corporate exposure and experience.
Our workshops aim
at –
§
Process
improvement
§ New learning
§ Enhanced team performance
§ Team dynamism
§ Customer effectiveness
§ Decision making and problem
solving skills
§
Reinforcing
company’s commitment in innovative thinking
We work with the simple belief that if you fail to learn
from us, we either refund your money within the first 45 minutes, or train your
team for free in our next scheduled workshop. We also hand-hold your team for
90 days after the training for any query they might have.
Please do contact
us at query@oakwoodtraining.in for the workshops you have planned for your employees.
