About Our Training Solutions
At RTM Consulting, we specialize in helping services organizations get better at what they do. Our training practice takes this concept down to the delivery practitioner level. Regardless of title, seniority, or position, our mission is to equip anyone in a client-facing role develop the consultative soft skills they need in order to have more effective interactions with your clients.
If you think about it, when your delivery practitioners are deployed in the field, they are not simply performing technical tasks. Rather, they are: 1) the face of your company to the end client, responsible for delivering the value associated with your solution; 2) your organization’s eyes and ears into new opportunities for your company; and 3) creating a lasting impression (good or bad) in the minds of current and future buyers. Therefore, every interaction matters, and delivery practitioners must be properly equipped to engage with client stakeholders at all levels, build and cultivate relationships, communicate effectively, manage scope creep, effectively handle complaints and issues, and identify new opportunities – the consultative soft skills every delivery practitioner needs.
Our Approach
– PS University
To be successful in Professional Services today, delivery practitioners must master a blend of consultative soft skills, analytical abilities, and adaptability to thrive in a rapidly evolving, client-centric landscape. With the rise of AI and automation, consultative soft skills like active listening, empathy, emotional intelligence, and problem-solving, are increasingly essential. Without these skills, PSOs run the risk of their delivery team falling behind.
Leveraging RTM Consulting’s expertise in helping services organizations better serve their customers through practical consultative soft skills development, our curriculum is designed to empower participants with the interpersonal and analytical skills needed to drive client engagement, foster trust, and deliver value – key ingredients for sustainable, future-proof success. Through a blend of practical instruction and experiential learning, participants gain hands-on experience, applying and practicing tools and techniques contextualized to a client-facing services environment. Simply put – we teach how to apply practical consultative skills when serving a client.
Training is most impactful when it resonates with students. Our modular programs can be delivered in a traditional classroom, virtually with a live instructor, or on-demand via pre-recorded learning modules hosted in our LMS. Our clients often pair our learning modules with interactive case study exercises, tailored to their project and client scenarios, to allow their team to role-play and practice what they have learned in real-life situations – the practical application to drive behavior changes and help them stick.
