Cultural Services Learning & Development
Our relationship with the Library sector started more than twelve years ago, when we delivered a Customer Care course for a County Library & Information Service.
Since this time we have gained a wealth of experience in working with library services in both the public & academic sectors. More recently we have worked with various sectors of cultural services including some national musuems. Designing and delivering a variety of learning programmes from Customer Care to Leadership Development.

Our Approach
We do not claim to be cultural services professionals, but we are experts in understanding human behaviour and the affects of change upon individuals and organisations.
We have worked with library services large and small, assisting and supporting them in introducing floorwalking and pro-active library services, which means that we have a wealth of knowledge and best practice to share in the workshops.
