How the IMS expert-driven approach helps you and your employees
The Institute for Management Studies combines real-time access to recognized experts with facilitated peer learning, live practice, and structured follow-through so participants do not just watch content, they apply it on the job.
Are You Looking for Completions
or Performance Improvement?
In a tight economy, most organizations cannot afford to just log hours of learning that stays theoretical. A broad content library can be a useful resource for quick reference and general upskilling. But if your goal is faster ramp-up for new managers, better decisions, and measurable gains in efficiency and productivity, the experience has to show up on the job.
The Institute for Management Studies delivers live, expert-led programs with facilitated peer learning and structured follow-through, so participants do not just complete courses. They apply what they learn on the job and build momentum on the job.
IMS can even provide custom programs for greater impact by aligning content and exercises to your new manager priorities, your business context, and the productivity and decision-making challenges your leaders face.
Turning Learning Into Action
The results speak for themselves. Participants consistently report strong outcomes. The vast majority would recommend the experience to colleagues, say it delivers clear value, and report improved on-the-job performance.

Josh Bersin
Josh Bersin's research identifies LinkedIn Learning as a Level 2 provider, what he calls Scaled Learning. These platforms broaden content access and give employees more options, but they lack the live expert interaction, peer practice, coached application, and structured follow-through needed to build real, lasting capability.
