Organizational and Learning Development Consultant

development of your employees today, you are planting the seeds of
success for tomorrow. T.R. Pickering & Associates, Inc. can help
your organization equip leaders with the skills and knowledge needed to
be successful.

Leadership Training

Preparing Leaders

Star performers promoted to management often struggle when supervising others to do the tasks they’ve been successful in doing. Stepping back from doing the job to being the one who supports and coaches others to do the job involves a different set of skills. We help current and emerging leaders better understand their new role and their own strengths through a series of assessments that teach them about themselves and those around them. Equipped with this knowledge, they can do more than supervise – they can inspire, coach, and guide effectively.

Interpersonal Communication Training

Sharpening Communication

Communication issues are often at the heart of disputes and departmental factions and are a critical element of leadership development. We provide interpersonal and business communication training, including preparing for high stakes presentations, owning the message when delivering tough news, and writing technical and business proposals and reports. In addition to offering classes and workshops, we deliver highly targeted coaching for key individuals who need to improve their performance.

Team Building

Building Effective Teams

Today’s organizations depend on agile, efficient, and productive teams, but internal structures and a lack of understanding about individual differences can create barriers. We offer proven ways to clear those barriers and build relationships and respect. Methods range from assessments that deepen people’s understanding of themselves and those around them, to practical, enjoyable retreats that strengthen relationships and encourage more consistent communication and collaboration across teams.

Learn. Engage. Lead.

Some of your star performers can have mastery of the technical side of their role, but not the people part of it — the part that can make a big difference in how your employees function as a team. And this impacts the quality of service your customers receive.

Building the interpersonal communication and leadership skills of individuals and teams is at the heart of the training and coaching T.R. Pickering and Associates, Inc. provides. Each project is customized to leverage the client’s unique opportunities and challenges.

Our services work toward helping employees realize their potential and increase their sense of purpose and connection with their teams. And when they’re more engaged in the work they do, they’re in a better position to mentor and coach those around them.

Recent projects for clients include:

Train-the-trainer certification course for a corporate university program
Leadership and communication skills coursework for an emerging leaders’ talent academy of an international manufacturing company
Business professionalism training for salaried employees of a public utility company
Etiquette workshop for a commercial bank’s management trainee program
Peer Review Training to equip employees in a non-union plant with active listening and decision-making skills to serve as panelists reviewing employee disciplinary issues
