Our instructional designers & SMEs have practical elearning & professional training industry experience of over 20 years.

Our digital marketing training services help clients run campaigns on Facebook & Google ads leading to lower cost per lead and cost per retail outcomes.

 On our Direction One - Digital Hindi & English YouTube channels we also provide high quality content on sales, digital marketing, leadership, seo and career success.   

Am a great fan of Robert Kaplan's Balanced Scorecard & Marcus Buckingham's Strengths Finder approach towards business and people management. Strong believer in the concept that "no one joins an organization to deliberately do a bad job" So the root cause of poor individual performance is a combination of individual competence & motivation and mostly through process excellence, organizational vision, strategy & climate.
