How do we work
The School designs and delivers custom programmes for client organisations in different sectors and of different sizes (including large corporations, small-medium enterprises, banks and insurance companies, central and local public organisations).
The tailor-made solutions are always customised and flexible; the objectives, contents, formats and methodologies are shared with the client and adapted to different needs. Luiss BS plans its training initiatives by becoming a partner of companies: it supports them in identifying needs, solving problems and applying solutions and it accompanies them in the renewal of organisational culture and the strengthening of corporate identity. The Luiss BS teams help developing both professional growth, and enforcing the corporate values.
The basic approach is to work together with partners, leveraging their knowledge of the specific reality and enhancing it with the contributions deriving from a balanced mix of academia and business knowledge.
The methodological approach followed is represented in the below figure (both for ad hoc training courses/custom programmes and consulting projects).
The methodological approach is as follows (both for ad hoc training courses/custom programmes and consulting projects):
- Identification of the client organisation’s needs
- Macro-planning of the custom programme
- Proposal presentation and Feedback from the client
- Implementation: Micro-planning & Delivery
- Final evaluation of the project
Each planning step is co-designed with the organization. While the timing and modes of the implementation stage are adapted to the organisation’s needs.
To deliver the highest quality for clients, Custom Programmes can include one or more pilot editions, which are modified based on participant feedback.
The main lines of activities of Custom Programmes & Consulting are the following: Corporate, Banks and Public Administration & Healthcare for Custom Programmes and Open Consulting and Consulting Institutional Projects & Tenders for Consulting.
