This work established a "targeted success profile" that was used to train the entire organization for organizational weak areas and to coach individuals on ways to improve their skills. Bill worked closely with the leaders of the organization to determine the proper training programs and coached many of the individuals.
The team was surveyed again after 2 years of training/coaching and showed a significant improvement in the number of matches to the success profile.
