AL Consultants, you have made a tremendous contribution to our novice team leaders and managers, who have all come a long way: you have helped us to draw a clear corporate political map from a bird’s eye view. The summary of each session and the lessons learned are fabulous. Your case analysis and the growth we achieved from them are remarkable. When I view the employees from my position on the sidelines and see the boost they got from you, I realize we made the right choice. The progress made is admirable; the contribution to our organization is tremendous.

In 2021 we decided to undertake a global executive development course spanning Israel and the United States – an especially complex challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic. The course helped equip our managers with practical tools that can be easily used and implemented. The facilitators, all highly professional, bonded with the managers and did an excellent job of building the content and encouraging participation. The managers felt they were being seen and heard. They also found that there were other managers dealing with similar challenges. We as an HR team played a substantial role in the course, related to the challenges the participants presented, and suggested new perspectives for their coping strategies. We showed them that we are their partners on the management journey and that there is considerable investment and organizational support for their role.

The program was intended to train junior managers within the four Johnson & Johnson companies in Israel. With the help we got from the consultant, we built the course syllabus to comply with the outline we provided, plus recommendations the consultant gave from her own experience. Despite the challenges imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the constraints of Zoom sessions and lockdowns, Nirit succeeded in delivering the course in an interactive, interesting, and informative way while remaining attentive to needs as they arose. She was agile and open to changes and fine-tuning while the course was underway. The challenge we expected, due to the differences between the group members and their companies turned out to be no obstacle at all – at the end of the day, the common theme of management challenges and coping tools was stronger and formed a bond between the participants. Once the process was complete, we received excellent feedback with outstanding final words from the participants.
