Why I Started This Company
After 15 years in business, I often witnessed the same cycle.
At first glance, the training seemed highly successful... Motivated participants, a room buzzing with conversations and exercises, notebooks full of notes. But then Monday would arrive, bringing with it the reality of the workplace. Within a few weeks, the spark from the training had faded, and those who attended gradually returned to their old ways.
I gradually realized that the main reason for this was the gap between the theory being discussed and its practical application in real work life. When a participant can't perfectly connect the material to their daily reality, much of the training survives only as notes in a notebook, left forgotten in a drawer for years.
This realization changed how I view my work and became the cornerstone of my training company.
During any training, coaching, or consultation, I follow a golden rule: the knowledge and skills, techniques, and methods that a participant learns must make sense and work in the client's actual life, not just in artificially "simulated" situations.
Many training companies place their primary focus on extensive theoretical models and perfectly polished presentations. For me, the priority today is what happens with the client after the training, coaching, or consultation.
I no longer measure the success of my work by final feedback forms with the best scores. I see feedback from participants more as a mirror, showing me how others perceive me and allowing me to continue working on myself. But it doesn't say much about whether, or how much, I have helped the participant.
The real test is when the client, at a decisive moment, recalls a new piece of information or reaches for a new skill, applies it with confidence, and sees a better result than before. When their colleagues or customers also notice a change, when their work becomes more effective, when stress decreases, and decisiveness and self-confidence grow. When a greater sense of joy comes from their work and their life. That is transformation. That is the result that truly matters to me.
If a client contacts me afterwards to share their success, that is the most valuable gift I can receive in my professional sphere. And that is what I love most about my work.
