Shadowing

A trainer accompanies the manager in daily work and meetings, observes leadership and communication behaviours and gives precise feedback.

We run several dozen types of assessments – from personal and managerial effectiveness, through emotional intelligence and engagement, to stress and burnout levels.

Assesses strengths and development areas – personality, temperament and motivation. Fully standardised for Poland, with reliability scales.

Large-scale development programmes are our everyday work

Several plants, a dozen or more groups at the same time, hundreds of leaders – we have delivered programmes like these for years. One standard, one schedule, measurement in every group.

20+

groups in parallel

Programme for a global automotive supplier.

180

participants across 4 plants

Developing shift leaders – from diagnosis to implementation support.

250+

sessions at 2 sites

APTIV: Kraków and Jeleśnia, in Polish and English.

15

trainers in a permanent team

Many groups in the same week – one programme, one standard.

Every group takes a knowledge test before and after each module and a survey after each session; HR receives a short report the next day and a full process report comparing groups and sites. One person leads the project on the NESSE side.

Why NESSE?

Project approach

We work in the Plan–Do–Check–Act cycle, which lets us improve continuously and minimise risk.

Measured effectiveness

We evaluate training with the Kirkpatrick model – from satisfaction, through knowledge, to behaviour change.

Tailor-made content

Every project starts with a needs analysis and uses real situations from your organisation.

Dedicated support

Years of work with demanding automotive clients have taught us flexibility. A dedicated team handles content, organisation and logistics.

What participants say

“This really was the best school and the best people I’ve ever dealt with in training. I met them in two organisations – first as a young leader, then as a manager. They create a great learning environment and go for quality, not quantity.”

Participant, LinkedIn

“What did I like most? Interactive classes, examples used in discussion, the atmosphere and the active participation of the whole group.”
