Why the Burst Learning Model™ Delivers Change
Training is delivered in short learning bursts that prevent information overload and give supervisors time to apply each new skill on the job. This proven approach uses five simple but powerful steps:
Step 1 – Learn
Supervisors learn practical, how-to skills from a short course. Each skill is explained step-by-step, making it easy to understand.
Step 2 – Internalize
Supervisors discuss, practice, and connect skills to their own workplace situations.
Step 3 – Apply
On the job, supervisors use Personal Action Plans to apply new skills and solve real workplace challenges.
Step 4 – Follow Up
Follow-up tools hold supervisors accountable for applying their Action Plans back on the job.
Step 5 – Repeat
The process repeats every 2–4 weeks until all core leadership skills are developed.
“We are incredibly happy with The Leadership Journey. Profitability is up.”
Steve Short, President, Technifab Products, Inc.
Traditional Training Methods Fail – Students Forget 90% in 30 Days.
Most traditional leadership training—whether delivered in-house or through seminars, workshops, or community college classes—relies on long sessions packed with too much information. Research shows students retain less than 10% of what they were taught after 30 days.
Long sessions leave supervisors overwhelmed with information and unclear on how to use the new skills back on the job. Without time, tools, and accountability to apply what they learned, old habits return quickly.

Human Resources, Organizational Development, and Training
"I have seen an improvements in our organization. I have been talking to other HR Professionals encouraging them to check out this program. If they do nothing more than view the free preview, it is well worth their time."
- David Scott, Director of Human Resources, Steel Summit Holdings"We chose to invest in The Leadership Journey because our supervisors and managers haven't had actual training, and we wanted to provide them with tools and skills to succeed."
- Stacie Lautrup, Director of Human Resources, Benefit & Risk Management Services"I love that the courses are short. When I instructed for the Wilson Learning program it was multiple 8 hour days, I love that your courses are so short and to the point."

- Tiffani Doyle, HR Manager, ACS Government Solutions"We have many supervisors who are excellent in their field (e.g. Chemists, Biologists, and Engineers) and because they are excellent employees they were promoted into supervisory positions - without having any real supervisory training.
