E-Learning Solutions
for Leadership, Management and Individual Contributors
It is common knowledge that most leadership training never impacts
the job, wasting time and expense. Developing people skills efficiently
and effectively requires practical, high-impact learning that ties
directly to strategic objectives. A Diaplan® solution produces
real results and impacts organizational performance as Return on
Investment (ROI).
"Timely instruction at the Point of Execution"
Diaplan is a comprehensive e-coaching curriculum that includes
the assessment, development and measurement of leadership competencies.
With thirty five courses arranged into ten categories of competencies,
Diaplan links leadership skills to daily activities – one
small dose at a time - whenever needed and with only what's needed.
A small dose approach followed by immediate practice on the job
solves the challenging problem of learning transfer.
The Diaplan online coaching curriculum targets the behaviors of
almost every manager, aspiring leader or professional. With 500+
electronic coaching units, Diaplan covers virtually every professional
competency. Each of the learning units (doses) presents techniques,
processes and behaviors based on 150 best practices.
"10-minute
daily e-coaching units"
Diaplan gets leadership development off to a quick start with
real-time, practical learning exercises that keep participants
on track. With the use of a quick assessment it's possible to determine

are represented in the following categories:
- Time and Stress Management

- Organizing People and Things
- Problem Solving / Decision Making
- Measurements and Standards
- Discussion Framework and Skills
- Leadership and Motivation
