Sales and the 'Talent Magnet'

A lot is written about being a ‘Talent Magnet’, either as a company, or as President. It’s all good practice – listen, mentor, reward, provide clear goals and career maps. Good practice for the employer, but what about the employee?

Why one-size-fits-all doesn’t work for today’s organizations.


For 10 years, SSI has been delivering quality and cost-effective training to organizations around the globe. As part of our philosophy, we do not believe that all employees require the same skill set training and that a generic training program is not the solution. That is why we have created a diverse, customizable curriculum enabling organizations to choose only the competencies applicable to their business environment. Whether classroom-based or simulation-based training, we give organizations the ability to ‘target the learning’ for faster, more effective results.

We can reflect your organization’s current employees, products, processes and methodologies so participants walk away with training they can truly apply back on the job. Your employees gain only the knowledge they need – how they need it.
 
Our team truly enjoys working with our clients to solve their business problems. Our commitment and insight into the training world allows us to bring you the most cumulative learning experience. We feature top quality instructors who are experts in their field, a development team with the highest educational standards and a group of others committed to bringing you quality, friendly service. Whether you are a small organization or a large corporation, SSI wants to help you solve your real world problems through mentoring, motivation and leadership.

Why SSI?
Tom Mattus, the President and Founder of SSI, saw continuous turnover in employees, and an inability to find great employees and make them productive. Tom also witnessed  people attending inadequate, off-the-shelf training programs and thus, more wasted money and time. Tom soon realized other companies were having much the same problems, and believed that with specific performance-oriented training, quality employees would be attracted to stay and grow with these organizations.

SSI offers customized training and project management consulting to all types of industries through the unlimited backgrounds and experiences of our associates – PM consultants, training designers and facilitators.

Our facilitators live and work all over the world, just like our clients. Because of this, we always have the time and expertise to handle your customized training and PM consulting needs.

SSI is run in a unique way, and we're able to meet your needs because of our unique and cost effective structure.

What we’re best at
We know how to learn your processes quickly, and use our knowledge of how people learn to turn your processes/information into something people can learn from quickly and easily, with the least expense in time and money and with the least intrusion to getting the rest of their job done.

How we work with you: First, we learn about your organization, employees and specific issues to determine the objectives you need to achieve. Second: working collaboratively with you, we determine how to meet those objectives. If customized training will meet the objectives, we work with you to design the necessary training content and the best delivery method. If some other intervention is needed, our Consultants will plan it with you.
Third, we work with you to deliver the training or implement the right intervention. Fourth – we help you reinforce the achievements on the job and measure the return on your investment.

Tom Mattus is the President and Founder of Successful Strategies International, Inc. (SSI), a successful training, leadership and mentoring organization that specializes in hands-on application project management and leadership development. Prior to forming SSI, Mattus was involved with the startup of several training organizations. He also was a senior manager at American Express and at Travelers Corporation.
