Having worked as a banker and as a consultant and delivered for the last 15 years workshops, conferences, trainings and seminars, I realized how important is to marry content with the context during a training session. I realized also that training participants need to acquire not only knowledge but as well need to know how to use the knowledge in the context of their institution they were for. Hence i have today a full conviction that training will be successful if delivered in-house and dedicated to the audience. Adding to this, we recognize that different people have different learning styles and that financial institutions look for the most time-effective training solutions. We are committed to delivering the best possible in-house training and we look forward to welcoming delegates to Amanah Strategy Institute at our Paris city centre location and internationally.
