Learning & Development“What works in one place may have potential elsewhere. Meaningful expansion requires understanding what to preserve, what to adapt, and who should help shape the way forward.”
We design national and multi-site strategies with local leaders, community members, and organizational partners from the beginning — so local knowledge shapes decisions and implementation is built on shared ownership.

With The SISGI Group, and specifically dealing with Thenera, I would recommend the company to any type of company. It just seems like there's a pattern that they've created that cuts through all the red tape or the crap or whatever. There's so much garbage in business that is so unproductive, and somehow she is able to sort that out very quickly. It doesn't take multiple meetings or hours to get to the point, to get to the root of the problem, in order for her to create a system. I think her experience dealing with this type of stuff through so many different types of companies and organizations that it actually works really well for our company. I'm so grateful that we found Thenera and The SISGI Group. Before we found them, business life was huge communication breakdowns between myself and my business partner. Unsolvable people management challenges and gut-based decision making. But after just six months of working with Thenera and The SISGI Group, our business was a world of clear communication. Employees working in positions that massively increased productivity and decreased frustration. And company decision making that was based on objective information gathered by the leadership team instead of gut decisions. Thenera has been able to listen to our complex problems, whether it be with employees or processes that we have in place that are not working. And then she finds very simple and applicable solutions that we can apply the same day or the next day. And she's able to walk us through them to show us how to implement them with all the what ifs. And it makes everything that we speak to her about solved very rapidly as opposed to us trying to figure out and making a bunch of mistakes along the way. Her solutions have always worked. A certain program that we need as well, we'll give her some of the issues that we're facing. And then she is able to tell us what program would actually help us the most. So in this case, it was Asana. And we also threw out different programs that we've heard about that we thought would work. And based off of her deep knowledge about the organization, she knew that those other ones were not going to work.
