Manufacturing, Industry and Pharmaceutical

It’s widely recognised that the manufacturing industry lies at the heart of a knowledge-driven, leading economy. Modern manufacturing means modern technologies that transform products, production processes and services. So what are the implications of this? The more high-tech a factory, the fewer people it is likely to need. Competition is high and those with finely-tuned skills and up-to-date knowledge are at a clear advantage. That’s where JSB can help.

With over 25 years experience working with organisations across the manufacturing spectrum – from a multinational chemical major to a world-leader in rail transit manufacturing – JSB provides courses, conferences and tailored programmes that are proven to drive you towards individual and organisational success.

“How do latest statutory rules and developing case law affect our discipline, grievance and dismissal policy?”
“How can we get to grips with processes underpinning successful performance management?”
“How can I refresh, re-focus and re-invigorate my team?”

We work with all departments and levels of seniority – board members, shop floor workers, HR professionals and all those in between. So whether it’s an employment law update, management development programme or interpersonal skills training that you and your people require, JSB has the solution.

Training/Development undertaken:	Achieving Excellence in Customer Service, Consultative Selling, Negotiation Skills – Basic and Advanced, Presentation Skills – Basic and Advanced, MBTI Team Build

Our experience of JSB has been good. We receive positive feedback on the employees’ learning experience as well as positive feedback on the trainers including their style and pace of delivery. From an administrative point of view JSB staff are responsive and send out communication/PCQs etc in a timely fashion. I would certainly recommend JSB to other organisations in our sector. The organisation and the employees have benefitted from JSB’s service in the delivery of the courses which increases their confidence and enhances their overall performance. We have developed a good relationship with JSB and are happy with content of the courses they run for us. This year we have commissioned them to provide further training in two of our European Offices.

	Gordon Pitman, Manager - Global Management Development Programs
Training/Development undertaken:	Situational Leadership II, Managing Performance and Coaching, Managing and Leading Teams, Interviewing and Selection, High Performance Culture, Leadership, Talent Development, Managing and Leading Multi-functional Teams

In one or two sentences please could you describe your JSB experience?
JSB are amongst the easiest training vendors / partners I work with – mainly due to their pragmatic and client focussed set up. Having both a client director and a senior account manager makes it very easy to get things done through one point of contact. Their content expertise and facilitators are both excellent and many of the JSB team have built excellent credibility inside our organization.

Would you recommend JSB to other organisations in your sector? What characteristics of the JSB service would motivate you to do so?
Yes – For me the best features of JSB are flexibility, client need focussed, creative thinking in terms of finding solutions to needs and a practical mindset.

How has your organisation/people benefited from JSB’s service?
Through the training design work that JSB have done for us over 50% of our global management population (over 5,000 employees) have benefited from new skills and insights making them better managers, more able to cope with the demands of their roles and better able to engage their teams. For many of our senior leaders the experience of training with JSB has been challenging and enabled them to take their leadership thinking to the next level.

Do you have any other comments?
The set up of the team / account structure works very well for us in AkzoNobel. We have one point of dedicated contact which makes the process of coordinating activity really simple and take a huge pressure off me. (Which I love!)
