In addition to strategic planning and organizational development practices, Strategic Source, Inc. has the capacity and experience to provide several training programs.

Professional Human Resource Management Program

SSI President, Jim McHale, is frequently asked to provide this nationally recognized professional development certificate program under the auspices of Villanova University and the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM). This 13-week program can be delivered on-site and customized to an organization's needs.

Conflict Management Program

The denial of conflict or the avoidance of good conflict management is common in organizations. Strategic Source, Inc.'s Conflict Management Program is customized to meet your needs and interests.

Ongoing work on real conflict cases takes place between sessions with individual coaching by SSI staff.

Collaborative Manager/Supervisor Development Program

This program is a customized, highly interactive training experience in which the program format and content are adjusted to the relevant population in attendance such as those working as managers of supervisors versus those working as supervisors of individual contributors.

A typical program includes two sessions of two days each; sessions are separated by a one-month interim during which supervisors execute their development plan and practice new skills.

Project Management Effectiveness Program

This program is critical in a changing world where project management has replaced routine administrative management as the primary activity. SSI's training assists in all aspects of project management including helping clients link projects to strategic planning, develop life cycles, build project teams, clarify roles and teach tools and techniques. This program is designed to teach new or aspiring project managers how to handle small to medium projects successfully. During each session, participants learn about the work of a particular division of a project and the skills necessary to complete it successfully. Many skills are used throughout a project.

Empowering with Accountability

The concept of helping a person become empowered is often difficult to comprehend. SSI's workshop guides managers and supervisors of any function through a learning experience about the critical nature of connecting feedback and accountability to the process of empowerment. We work with our clients to customize this workshop around several topics that can help create an environment that encourages empowerment.

Strategic Decision-making Workshop

This 2-day workshop is intended for those who have initiated a strategy but are in need of additional assistance in choosing the appropriate growth strategy for their organization. After a basic review of the current status and use of the planning process, the emphasis is on evaluating growth options against selected reality factors including their company's own corporate personality. A systematic decision-making process and validating templates are provided.
