Employee / Staff Training

Training helps organization run more efficiently and effective.

Training is a recruiting tool. An organization is more likely to attract and keep good employees if it offers development opportunities. Training promotes job satisfaction. The more engaged and involved employees are the better the organization’s rewards. Training is a retention tool, instilling loyalty and commitment from good workers

Training adds flexibility and efficiency. Employees can be cross-trained to be capable in more than one aspect in the organization, thus also fostering team

Training is essential for knowledge transfer, a good way to diversify investments

Inspired Kenya believes that continuous employee training is a win-win for all stakeholders, increasing productivity, performance, revenues and satisfaction:

Customer Service Training for senior parastatal managers from NHIF, Posta, TSC and KTB – May 2014

Leadership Development

Our wide range of programs are designed for those who have significant leadership and/or managerial responsibilities in organizations

Our training models are effective in development of most organizations that are experiencing organizational growth, organizational change, and significant shifts in the external market and environment

They are tailored to develop effective leaders and ensure that their development is immediately applied in the work environment and that it also addresses the specific needs

While the overall content is based on a validated development model, both the content and application are further customized to meet the unique needs of a specific target group/organization

Entrepreneurship Development

Inspired Kenya seeks to strengthen entrepreneurial skills through capacity building & training resources that instill good practices in MSEs and SMEs

We train using tools and programs that deal with the long term effects of entrepreneurial culture in Kenya

Inspired Kenya’s goal is to contribute towards the creation of an enterprise culture by promoting awareness among women and youth of the opportunities and challenges of entrepreneurship and self-employment, and of their role in shaping their future and that of their country's economic and social development

Youth & Women Empowerment

We have a Youth & Women Entrepreneurship Empowerment and Capacity Building model that is specifically designed to suit the needs of Kenya and the East African situation. Many programs and initiatives fail because of:

We offer programs that will impart in women and youth the skills, resources, authority and motivation to achieve economic and social development.

We also teach them to take responsibility and accountability for outcomes of their actions

This empowerment greatly contributes to their growth, development and satisfaction

Adopting programs without customization and personalization for the Kenyan situation.

Ignoring the local culture and its impact on youth attitudes and mindsets Working independent of other stakeholders, especially the ones with personal

experience in entrepreneurship in Kenya Making decisions for the Youth and Women without including them Lack of adequate and specific Government policies on youth and women, and a

clear implementation strategies

Coaching & Mentoring

Coaching is training or development in which a person called a "coach" supports a learner in achieving a specific personal or professional goal

Mentorship is a personal developmental relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person

Inspired Kenya offers mentorship and coaching programs to individuals and organizations
