As a former bankers, her services, which include a broad scope including stra - tegic planning, leadership and management develop - ment, regulatory and compliance implementations, retail growth strategies and sales & services culture development, are recognized as “real world banking solutions”. Dianne’s training programs are designed to “close the gap” between banks’ needs and employees’ skills. A philosophy of experiential learning and participant involvement in training led to her “TELL-SHOW-DO” training method that is skill based rather than theory based. The training limits lecture discussion to a maxi- mum of 7-9 minutes, relying on active, high energy, “hands on” approach by the participants. DAVID L.
