MANAGEMENT TRAINING AND LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES
Business Growth Specialists
We work with leadership teams in growing companies helping you develop the management skills required to achieve your key business growth objectives.
Welcome to High Force Training, a Business Management Training & Consulting Firm. We provide training which is relevant, energising and bespoke; it’s tangible, and outcome-orientated. For over 30 years we’ve supported many clients and are unique in the training industry as we unconditionally guarantee our work: If at any stage, for any reason, you feel that you are not getting value for money, you don't pay. Simple!
Investing in management training is crucial for companies for several reasons:
​
1. Strategic Alignment: Training ensures managers understand and are equipped to implement the company’s strategic priorities.
2. Skill Development: It enhances employees' decision-making, problem-solving, and leadership skills.
3. Employee Retention: Well-trained managers can increase employee retention by creating a supportive work environment.
4. Promotable Employees: Management training creates a pool of promotable employees ready to step into leadership roles as needed.
5. Financial Benefits: Effective management can lead to better performance, potentially earning and saving the company money.
These benefits contribute to a more competitive workforce, higher employee engagement, and overall organisational success. Management training can be a significant investment, but it can yield substantial returns when aligned with the company’s strategic goals and supported by internal systems.

‘Here is Edward Bear coming down the stairs now, bump, bump, bump on the back of his head behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a moment and think of it.’ A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Poo
