CONSULTANCY
Spend on what
actually matters.
Most L&D budgets get wasted on training that wasn't needed, wasn't ready, or wasn't right for the people in the room. Our Training Needs Analysis tells you exactly what to invest in: and why: before you spend a penny on delivery.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
Insight that changes how you manage
The diagnostic doesn't just tell you what's wrong — it tells you where to focus, what to do, and in what order. Most clients say it's the clearest picture they've ever had of their team.
WITHOUT A TNA
- ✗ Training is chosen based on what sounds good, not what's needed
- ✗ Managers pick programmes they've heard of rather than ones proven to work
- ✗ Everyone gets the same content regardless of where they actually are
- ✗ ROI is impossible to measure because the starting point was never defined
- ✗ Development feels like a box-ticking exercise — and people treat it that way
WITH A TNA
- ✓ Every programme is chosen because it directly addresses an identified gap
- ✓ Priorities are ranked — you know what to tackle first for maximum impact
- ✓ Content is tailored to where people actually are, not where you assume they are
- ✓ Success can be measured — because the baseline and the goal are both clear
- ✓ Development gets taken seriously because people can see it's been thought through
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
A plan you can actually act on
The TNA doesn't just tell you what people need to learn. It tells you how to sequence it, how to deliver it, and how to measure whether it's working.
YOU MIGHT NEED THIS IF...
These sound familiar
If one or more of these is true, a Functional Team Diagnostic will give you more answers in four weeks than another quarter of hoping things improve.
You've spent on training before and struggled to point to what changed as a result
You're planning a significant L&D investment and want to make sure you're spending it right
You know there are capability gaps in the business: but you're not sure exactly where they are or how serious they are
The business has grown quickly and development hasn't kept pace with the scale of the team
You're redesigning your L&D strategy and want to start with evidence rather than assumption
Senior stakeholders are asking you to justify the L&D budget and you want the data to make the case
THE PROCESS
Rigorous. Practical. Fast.
We don't disappear for three months and come back with a 200-page document. Our TNA is designed to give you actionable insight in a timeline that actually works for a business.
Stakeholder alignment
We start by getting clear on the business context: strategic priorities, current challenges, and what success looks like from the perspective of leadership, HR, and the people who'll be in the room. This ensures the TNA is anchored to real outcomes, not just learning objectives.
Data gathering
We use a combination of structured interviews, observation, performance data review, and targeted surveys to build a comprehensive picture of current capability across the relevant population. We meet people where they are: not where you hope they are.
Gap analysis
We map what we find against what's required: the specific skills, knowledge, and behaviours needed to achieve the business outcomes you care about. This produces a clear, prioritised gap map that forms the foundation of all recommendations.
Recommendations and planning
We translate the gap analysis into a practical development plan: covering what to do, in what order, with what format, and how to measure impact. Where relevant, we'll tell you which of our programmes directly address the gaps identified.
Presentation and handover
We present findings and recommendations in a live session: designed to be shareable with your board or senior leadership team. You'll receive a written report, the development plan, and the business case document. We're available for follow-up questions as you begin implementation.
WHAT CLIENTS SAY
Real outcomes. Honest feedback.
I've had the privilege of participating in Suk's workshops, and the experience has been transformative. His expertise in sales processes has been invaluable. The sessions are not only informative but engaging: making the learning impactful and memorable. I'd recommend him to anyone wanting to progress their skillset.
Lucie Wadsworth
New Business Development Manager & ClientI'd definitely recommend Suk's Foundation Selling programme to anyone looking to gain valuable knowledge and insights into the art of sales. The course was very well delivered and Suk managed to keep it interesting and interactive throughout: which I know can be extremely difficult over two days delivered virtually.
Victoria Graham
Clinical Education Manager & ClientSuk is a great teacher and communicator. He helped me start my sales journey and develop my confidence, listening skills, and communication skills.

Things people usually ask us
How long does a TNA take?
Typically 4–8 weeks from kick-off to final report, depending on team size, the amount of data gathering required, and stakeholder availability. We'll scope this with you before we start and give you a fixed timeline.
Do you only recommend Unscripted Growth programmes in the output?
No. We recommend what's genuinely right for your situation. Sometimes that's one of our programmes. Sometimes it's a combination of ours and others. Sometimes it's internal delivery. We're not here to sell you something you don't need.
Can you work with data we already have — engagement surveys, appraisals, 360 feedback?
Absolutely. Existing data accelerates the process and usually sharpens the findings. We'll incorporate everything relevant and tell you honestly if there are gaps that need to be filled through our own data gathering.
What's the difference between a TNA and a Team or Leadership Diagnostic?
A TNA looks at capability across a population — it's about identifying what development is needed and planning how to deliver it. Our Diagnostic services go deeper into a specific team's dynamics, culture, and individual performance. Many clients do both — the Diagnostic gives richness, the TNA gives breadth.
How big does the organisation need to be?
We work with organisations from around 20 people up to several hundred. The scope and methodology scales with size — we'll design the approach to fit your context and budget, not a one-size-fits-all framework.
Know before you spend.
