My Professional Development™ Online Training
Activate Group business coaches are licensed and trained to deliver the training products known as the My Professional Development™ Online Training. LaGrone Enterprises has been perfecting programs for sales, sales management, management, customer service, and human relations training since 1993. These online tools provide live interactive coaching and structured study material, as well as committed management and sales trainers who take a personal interest in your professional and personal growth. Our relationship with LaGrone Enterprises separates us from other ”seminars” and programs because we are able to develop sustained commitment to ongoing incremental change and development. This is why so many individual and corporate training investments often end up on a shelf instead of being put into practice. Our trained professionals build a results-oriented program that focuses on driving return on investment through a 3-phase approach:
- Phase I: Analyze current skill sets and determine desired results. Then identify strengths, weaknesses and more importantly, hidden weaknesses that neutralize strengths.
- Phase II: Training that introduces new attitudes, behaviors and techniques for improved results.
- Phase III: Ongoing reinforcement for ownership of new attitudes, behaviors and techniques; driving salespeople closer to their potential.
This cutting-edge approach is ideally suited to companies anticipating, or having recently completed, transitions such as new leadership, new product/service acquisition, market changes and/or strategic and philosophical changes. The ideal time for this training is when executives are re-evaluating the staff and performance, and everyone must perform to meet the goals of the organization.

TopGrading
Activate Group uses the proven methods of Bradford Smart, author of TopGrading, to help you revolutionize your hiring process. CEOs report that “picking the right people” is their No. 1 business challenge. Unfortunately, most companies find that only 25% of those hired or promoted turn out to be high achievers—that’s a 75% failure rate!
TopGrading methods dramatically improve the talent in your organization. Did you know:
- TopGraders often double or triple their hiring results—achieving 75%,
80% and even 90% success hiring and promoting people. - Top Wall Street investors use TopGrading to assess and improve management teams.
- Thousands of managers at leading companies of all sizes have taught TopGrading to their managers.
Smart’s methodology can increase your hiring success to 90% or better. Without the need to dramatically increase salaries—and possibly even lower them—you can increase the performance of your team by hiring the right people. Our team is trained and uses these proven, effective processes to help you implement the TopGrading philosophy into your company.
