The 4HR TruNorth Learning System has two critical components:

  1. Formalized company wide and small group learning opportunities (training),
  2. Focused individual development activities (coaching).
When designed and implemented properly and aligned with organizational objectives, these two components become powerful forces in managing change and achieving organizational results.

Training
The 4HR TruNorth Learning System is designed to increase individual and team performance and bring out employee potential by:

  • Addressing current needs with relevant information
  • Utilizing an experiential approach to learning
  • Incorporating the needs of adult learners in the context of business
  • Reflecting the unique environment and goals of each client
  • Ensuring that classroom training transfers to on-the-job performance

Many organizations have incorporated 4HR modules into regularly scheduled meetings, retreats, and strategy sessions.  Two 4HR TruNorth Learning System courses are:

Coaching
4HR helps owners and managers to become better leaders. Through individual coaching sessions your company leaders are given additional perspective and management strategies. These strategies can then be used to increase productivity through consistent leadership and better team building.

4HR also assists leaders and managers with strategic planning. We help you learn to take advantage of change while creating a clear, concise picture of your company's future and a map that shows how to get there.
