Case Study
Situation
Playson Ltd approached Nicholas Hill Academy Ltd in 2019 with a sales enquiry. Playson is a gaming company located in Malta, boasting $47 million in revenue and 142 employees. Its operational and engineering offices are in Kyiv, Ukraine. The company was undergoing significant internal change, and the sponsors demanded a high ROI. They wanted to decrease team attrition and lead their people through the transition.
Task
The company wanted to roll out a learning and development programme for all its senior managers, middle managers, and sales staff. The results needed to be immediately visible in the company's day-to-day operations, meaning all delegates were required to implement the course tools in their work to improve performance, productivity, and efficiency. Nicholas Hill Academy Ltd secured a 12-month contract, which the client renewed yearly from 2019 to 2023, and then switched to an ad hoc format due to the Ukraine-Russia war.
Action
Over these four years, Playson put 42 team members through several two-day training courses with Nicholas Hill Academy Ltd, all designed and delivered by Certified Master Trainer Nicholas C. Hill FCMI FIoL FIC. Cohorts consisted of HODs, FLMs, and BDMs. In total, the company clocked up a cumulative 2173 CPD hours. The courses delivered were as follows:
Result

Referral

So far, we have put 42 team members through various two-day training courses throughout this period, all of which Nicholas designed and delivered. Cohorts consisted of HODs, FLMs, and BDMs.
