AIM Principles

Trainers … Not Hired Guns

We think understanding your customers’ deepest needs is your job. Our job is to provide you with skills and tools to do this better than your competitors. We’ll also train internal coaches if you’d like. Then we get out of your way.

No “Parachute Workshops”

We don’t parachute in for a workshop and wish you good luck at the end. AIM coaches stick with you over several months using cost-effective web-conference calls to reinforce and refine your teams’ skills to the highest level.

Real Projects … Real Results

During our workshops, participants break out into teams to work on real projects. They interview customers and design new products for these projects so your training investment leads to new skills and bottom-line benefits.

A Little Discretion

You’ll never hear us dropping names of other clients during our workshops. Neither will you find a “trophy wall” of client logos on our website or literature. If you want to endorse us (read endorsements), it’s your choice, not ours.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

We try to deliver more than our clients expect. If it’s ever the other way around, we won’t expect payment for our workshop services. About 2/3rds of participants rate AIM workshops in the top 10% of all workshops ever attended.
