Guru Training

Years ago, your company spent tens of thousands of dollars and countless hours implementing Visual Enterprise. But the people who were involved in that effort have moved into other roles or have left the company entirely. Now you have no one left who truly understands Visual’s role in your business.

Yet that understanding is critical to your long-term success. To make Visual Enterprise a tool that enables your business’s growth and success you need to have someone in-house who understands your company deeply and can support its use of Visual. This is not a job for your resident geek.

Yes technical aptitude is important, but business aptitude is critical. You need someone who really understands the core of your business and is committed to using Visual as a tool for success.

Guided by Kurt B. Carr, this unique program will help your company develop your own guru. This multi-faceted program takes a key member of your business team and transforms them into your very own Visual Enterprise champion. More than just a tour of the Visual windows, this course is designed to make your Visual Guru a driver of change within your organization.

The program is delivered as a mix of customized course modules delivered over a couple of months as well as a 5 hour block of consulting/training time that will be used to mentor your new guru through their first few months on the job.
