Learning Journey

How did Kaplan Professional ME work with the client to develop the solution?
To develop the learning solution, we evaluated the existing skillset of the candidates through psychometric assessments and diagnostic tests. Based on the analysis, the managing others module focused on coaching and developing team and individual capability by motivating and empowering others. For the managing self module, the sessions catered to identifying key leadership practices that contribute to high organizational and individual performance. The managing organization module was customer-focused and hence offered candidates the opportunity to analyze data, think creatively, and implement plans aligned for strategic success.

Candidates also had access to the 1-to-1 coaching sessions, action learning projects, and the Kaplan business challenge, which offered them the opportunity to think and react strategically under high-pressure situations and in line with the organization’s objectives.
