A proven franchise in management training

The Expert Group on Future Skills Needs has estimated that over the next number of years 500,000 individuals in Ireland will need to be 'up-skilled'

Government has committed over 7 billion euros to up-skilling the workforce under the NDP, while employers spend over 1 billion euros annually on training and development.

Leadership Management Ireland (LMI) has been extremely successful in developing and implementing leadership programmes throughout the Irish business sector. LMI is responding to the current appetite for up-skilling by expanding its network of management training franchises.

LMI already has a number of highly successful franchisees in Dublin, Cork and the South East, working with a range of clients, across a number of sectors, giving individuals the tools and systems to ensure that they can excel at work and still have time for a personal life. Repeat business always speaks volumes about a company's competence and Donal Brady, Managing Director of LMI Ireland, reveals the company enjoys a repeat business ratio in excess of 60 per cent.

'The fact we can assure our clients of an immediate return on investment is proving very attractive,' he adds. 'With an excellent track record we are now keen to increase the number of franchisees in Ireland. LMI offers a superb opportunity for experienced individuals who are confident self starters looking for a change and a challenge. An LMI franchise is particularly suited to those who wish to work for themselves, yet still be part of a team of committed professionals.'

Current LMI franchisees are drawn from a variety of backgrounds including financial services, marketing and the Defence Forces. Róisín Joyce (pictured left with Donal Brady), a franchisee in Dublin, was an experienced leader in the marketing industry before setting up a LMI franchise in 2001. She is delighted to have made the change from marketing to the people development sector. 'We have an excellent team at LMI who work with a range of very dynamic clients,' she says. 'I find the work challenging and it is extremely rewarding watching our clients achieve their goals and maximise their leadership potential.'

For over 40 years LMI has been improving businesses, helping organisations develop the talents and abilities of their key employees and increasing productivity and corporate profits. 'At LMI we believe people are an organisation's greatest resource,' comments Donal. 'Our philosophy is based on the premise that men and women have an unlimited potential to make of themselves and their organisations whatever they choose.'
