Kick-Start analytics in your organization while solving pressing issues
QuickStart programs use our unique results-oriented approach (seen on the right) that dramatically accelerates both the delivery of tangible results and and a team or business unit’s learning curve through a mix of end-user training, business consulting and user coaching over a period of several weeks. Based on the principle that people learn by doing, QuickStarts have several major benefits:
- Participants learn long-term risk analysis and modeling skills with their favorite package.
- Particiapant feel ownership in the strategy, the solution and the results
- Participants have access to a dedicted consultant/trainer for the duration of the project to assist in the development and analysis activities
- Soft-Skills training to ensure participants have the skills to gather the data and present the results effectively.
- At the end of the program, the participants will deliver a high-value analysis of the problem/opportunity to management.
How does it work?
The first step of the process is to identify a problem that needs fixing or an opportunity requiring analysis - in each case this needs to be a high-priority project. When a project is finally selected, a custom project outline is prepared where both the course material and overall approach for solving the problem are laid out in clear form for management approval (& support).
A typical project involves regular training sessions throughout the engagement covering soft-skills, risk analysis and analytics theory and end-user training. For example, each week participants’ :
- Get a 1/2 - 1 days of End-User Training (Oracle Crystal Ball, Palisade @RISK, Frontline Risk Solver, Vose Model Risk...)
- Spend a few days practicing their new skills doing value-adding analysis on the project
- A weekly debreifing and coaching session where participants Spend an hour with a coach/senior consultant to share their experiences and difficulties working with simulation & analytics within the organization
