Thu, March 19, 2009 RTM Consulting, LLC: RTM Consulting Introduces Innovative Soft Skills Training for Consultants
CINCINNATI, OH--(Marketwire - March 19, 2009) - Cincinnati-based RTM Consulting has introduced an innovative interactive soft skills development curriculum for IT consultants. This new modular curriculum supported by customized case studies is designed to teach consultants more effective client-facing skills while also training consultants how to be more impactful in identifying and growing revenue generating opportunities.
"An important initiative for us this year was to invest in the development of our consultants by providing them with a high impact training program to increase their overall effectiveness," said Paul Hofstadler, VP of Worldwide Consulting for Mentor Graphics. "RTM Consulting delivered this by developing, customizing, and administering an outstanding curriculum specialized for our consultants and our business objectives. This high quality soft skills curriculum included interactive case studies to help our consultants immediately practice what they learned. Feedback from sessions held across 4 continents has been universally positive and enthusiastic."
Mr. Hofstadler continued: "Only a few months after the administration of the course, we're already seeing real results. I've had several consultants talk about how they've been able to more successfully deal with difficult situations and how they've been able to produce proposals for follow-on work that are more targeted and more successful. This was clearly a good investment for us since it is generating returns even in this tough economy."
"Due to the rapid decline in the economy, technology companies are looking for innovative ways to increase revenues and reduce costs," said Randy Mysliviec, CEO of RTM Consulting. "Most companies do a good job of building the right technical and product skills, but they often under invest in the critical soft skills necessary to be effective in today's environment. Our soft skills curriculum teaches consultants how to more effectively manage client relationships while capturing more overall value from each and every client encounter."
RTM Consulting helps technology companies better manage and develop their pool of consulting and professional services personnel to improve personal and organizational effectiveness, while also enhancing the revenue generating capabilities of consultants supporting product and solution sales.
