Intelligence Strategies' mission is to enable people to realize their greatest potential in quality thinking and learning. To work smarter, not harder as leaders and team players. And to maintain a healthy work/life balance. We know that people have already been recruited on the basis of their talents, abilities and qualifications. However, few people are equipped with the skills to apply their intelligence in a systematic and effective manner, whether for the profitable gain of the organization or to improve their quality of life.

What difference?
Intelligence Strategies is a company with a difference. We want you to be immediately effective. Yet it is a well-known problem in training that less than 10% of the material presented is retained. In verbal communication, only 7% of what is said is absorbed.

Brain-based approach
This is why Intelligence Strategies uses a whole brain approach to learning new skills. We use the latest advances in brain research and accelerated learning to ensure that the material presented is absorbed, understood and retained indefinitely.

Practical and useful
Our approach is designed to be practical. The skills learnt can be immediately applied in the workplace or in one's private life. We do not teach theory except to reinforce the cognitive understanding of a process.

Fun activities
Our courses are fun and full of activities. The brain operates at a peak level when it is flush with oxygen and nutrients. Therefore our courses involve movement - we incorporate "Brain Gym" into each of our sessions - and we encourage delegates to be well-nourished with liquid based foods such as juice or fruits.

New methodologies
Intelligence Strategies has researched the latest methodologies that are demonstrably practical, effective and easy to learn. The actual content has been carefully designed to benefit participants directly.

Delegates who attend our courses will feel empowered and confident in applying their newfound skills in a variety of applications. You will become a much more effective manager as a result of attending our courses.

Proven techniques
We have researched the most effective techniques that can be easily learnt and immediately applied to improve productivity and profitability.

These include:

  • Thinking Skills that improve productivity in meetings (e.g. Six Thinking Hats and Lateral Thinking)
  • Techniques for generating innovative new ideas and solving intractable problems (e.g. Simplicity and DATT)
  • Practical tips and exercises to ensure that you Get Things Done (Time Intelligence)
  • Effective communication by understanding the principles of NLP

Based on our research, we have developed a series of seminars and workshops that are extremely effective in helping people to be more confident, to manage themselves and develop creative thinking skills.

We apply the 80/20 rule. We show you how to use the most effective techniques that will have a massive effect on your life. We don't burden you with theory or go into minute detail. The main, simpler ideas are all you will need 80% of the time.

These skills are practical and useful for solving intractable problems that many organizations experience.

They also extremely effecting in helping to improve the competitive advantage of the organization as well as helping people to lead a more fulfilling life and have better relationships.

Participants will be more confident, enjoy their work, be able to get on better with staff and customers, significantly increase sales, deal competently with problems, waste less time in meetings, be more sensitive to business and market opportunities, and generally be more effective in their work.

How we do it

 

The first stage is to learn about your organization, understand the market, the industry, your concerns and to get a clear idea of your personal and corporate missions. We are ready to do this without any obligation on your part. Our unique, outside perspective enables us to form a ‘big picture’, unaffected by the day to day troubles and concerns of the business.

If we feel that we can offer advice or if any of our approaches may benefit your managers in some way then we will make some preliminary recommendations and discuss with you how these may help you to achieve your aims.

We will find ways of collaborating with you at all stages. We use our preferred thinking methodologies to make strategic suggestion, help you to brainstorm creatively or find innovative ways of working together.

Usually, we will devise a series of specific training programs for selected managers or team members that will enable them to deal with your critical issues internally, independently of us or outside consultants. Using a ‘brain-based’ approach and incorporating the 80/20 principle, your managers will be able to practically implement the most useful techniques in a highly focused and effective manner.

Alternatively, individual managers may choose to attend one of our Open-enrollment courses; or you may wish to benefit simply from our assistance in facilitating discussions that deal with some of the more critical issues.
