Our Training Premise

We believe that businesses that intrinsically integrate cross-functional and cross-cultural teams into their conventional business hierarchy will win consistently against rivals who rely more on the hierarchal organizational model.

We believe the primary effect is created by moving much of the business decision making from functional management to the teams. Members of the teams are more intimately connected with the customers. The critical skill determining which business wins or loses is not management decision making but building strong relationships with the customers. Teams do that far better than functional management.

We believe real teams learn teamwork doing the team's work, not climbing on ropes or falling off ladders. Our workshops are biased toward practicing new skills in proven processes while producing a valuable work product.

Our Training Purpose

First and foremost, our training purpose is to help good businesses become winning businesses. To do that, we help business take a more comprehensive, more innovative view of their business than their competitors may do. Becoming more conventional is very rarely a winning strategy! Our beliefs about business

We believe that workshops that develop cross-functional and cross-cultural teams with the capability and the will to win provide the best vehicle to satisfy Our Training Purpose.

Create Winning Businesses

We train and coach teams of diverse people to consistently create winning businesses. Teams with a diverse membership pursuing missions vital to developing winning businesses need workshops to learn and practice major new skills and processes at the right stage of their development. We call it just-in-time learning.

Experiential Learning

DeltaNet Workshops emphasize the development of skills and processes through experiential learning, focused like a laser on the work to be done and the mission to be won.

That contrasts sharply with simpler, more detached training methods that focus mainly on conveying knowledge or demonstrating features of teamwork in a non-business context. Of course, knowledge is important, but we believe knowledge must be specific to the mission in cases where winning matters, like in a business.

People with strong skills, working interactively, using effective processes and focused on shared goals they all value highly will find ways to get the knowledge they need to help them win against their strongest rivals.

The reverse is not true. People amassing knowledge mainly for the sake of having it, or to check off a completion box in their HR file, are far less likely to do anything worthwhile with that knowledge.

Our beliefs about learning businesses drive the design and application of our workshops. Please visit Learning to get more on this vital, foundational topic.

Winning Businesses

Our workshops are designed to prepare people to do something important for their business, to innovate, to connect the business more closely with the larger systems it serves, to create customers and to trade their products and services for money better than their strongest rivals do.
