Welcome to Double Loop Development

We work closely with individual clients to tailor development programmes to suit the particular challenges or needs of the business at the time. In discussion with each client, we identify and agree what is required in order to create, then deliver, an appropriate development package. This might involve working with a group of employees or an individual, and it might mean delivering a one day training course or working with you over a period of weeks or even months. Each company's development needs are different, which is why we will not simply offer you an 'off the peg' solution.

Our development work covers:

Preparation, follow up and evaluation
Agreeing what kind of development is needed, and for whom, is just the first step. To get the best out of your investment, people taking part in the development programme need to be prepared. We work with each individual taking part to prepare the ground and help them make the most of the opportunity to learn new skills, adopt a new way of thinking or simply refresh their knowledge.

And follow up is just as important as preparation. How else will you know whether your investment has been effective in changing the way people work or behave? After each development intervention has been completed — and in some cases, at intervals during the process — we will follow up each participant to seek their views on the programme, assess how they are implementing their new skills and knowledge and how they will do so in the future.
