Learning & Performance Center for High-Potentials [email protected] – www.scientific-evolution.com - 1/51 - When Science meets Management T he further you go in your company's business system, the greater the responsibilities that you must take on, and the more visible will the results for which you are accountable. And these responsibilities and this visibility will occur in the context of ever-increasing complexity. The quantitative stream is an integral part evolution for all activities to understand and solve/improve complex situations using Master/PhD state of the art scientific tools and processes based on extremely useful and rigorous REX (return on experience). Scientific Evolution Sàrl 100% focused on Quantitative Scientific Management with a comprehensive range of open enrollment quant seminar programs, all aimed at the real needs of today's employees (especially high-potentials), a radical high level approach to the management of organizations using an efficient proven method: math's analysis and scientific methodologies for project management to resolve real business issues and analyze strategic challenges! The ability to reason in an organized and mathematically correct manner is essential to solving critical business problems, and helping employees to improve their reasoning skill is also one of our primary goals. We hope that our approach will transform the way your company executes the revenue generating process in a wide variety of complex problems in business, government, health care, education and many others through his scientific strategy for each hard skill or soft skill high-potential employee. Scientific Evolution Sàrl – Quant. Learning & Performance Center for High-Potentials [email protected] – www.scientific-evolution.com - 2/51 - Others say it, We prove it! Even though many business decisions can be made intuitively, based on hunches and experience, there are more and more situations in which quantitative models can assist. Some managers, however, fear that the use of a formal analysis process will reduce their decision-making power. Others fear that it may expose some previous intuitive decisions as inadequate. Still others just feel uncomfortable about having to reverse their thinking patterns with formal decision making. These managers often argue against the use of quantitative methods. Many action-oriented managers do not like the lengthy formal decision- making process and prefer to get things done quickly. They prefer “quick and dirty” qualitative techniques that can yield immediate results. Once managers see some quick results of quantitative technics that have a substantial payoff, the stage is set for convincing them that quantitative analysis is a beneficial tool. When you participate to our quantitative seminars, you will: • learn through real-life case studies with real accessible tools and practical research material • learn to turn numbers into real scientific knowledge • learn from experts, all researchers or authors • choose to work on a specific challenge related to your company • share knowledge with other high-potentials skills through active class discussions • gain access to our website (Forum, Wiki, MS Excel Spreadsheets, Scripts/Codes, Lectures, Videos) These elements make naturally of Scientific Evolution Sàrl your ideal partner for all trainings of very high level of complexity and rigor. Discussions • Processes Applications • Implementation • Finance • Business cases • Management • Critics • Supply chain • Lectures • Quality Theory • Traps • R&D • Purpose • Tips & Tricks • Hypothesis • Forecasting • Assumptions • … • Limitations • Proofs Memorization is important, however understanding is even more important. Scientific Evolution Sàrl – Quant. Learning & Performance Center for High-Potentials [email protected] – www.scientific-evolution.com - 3/51 - State of the art Mathematic is the most fascinating and satisfying subject to research and to learn. No matter how much you read, and how well informed you are, there is nothing comparable to deeply understand the mechanisms of applied science to gain the managerial insights that are necessary for succeeding in the future and mastering the present. We share our passion for all branches of mathematics and our diverse, high-quality seminars list reflects this. We offer real learning approach with powerful professional tools and methodologies align with the needs of your daily business subject to uncertainties. Our program gives you a grounding in core disciplines such as quantitative marketing, quantitative finance, quantitative project management, quantitative quality control, quantitative process management and decisioneering. This approach enables you to look at various challenging issues from a different perspective and dig out gold of your company's data, independent of the sector you are situated in. For this purpose, we are constantly updating our programs keeping them relevant, and bringing innovative material to the classroom. By investing the necessary time to work closely with key clients and understand their needs, we always offer tailored and comprehensive services that addresses your specific needs as accurately as possible. Participants should come with an open mind to learn from thought leaders and peers, to build efficient business and sustainable business environment. Also, we will discuss how scientific methodology has increase knowledge and comfort in all fields. Quantitative techniques and tools provide the executive with scientific basis for decision making and enhance the abilities to make long range plans and to solve some of the many problems of running a business and industry with greater efficiency and confidence. Quantitative techniques and tools are instead nothing more than a high-quality tool for the professional involved in the high-level business areas and is not a guarantee of specific results! There are number of advantages in using mathematical models: 1. Models can accurately represent reality (if properly formulated) 2. Models can help a decision maker formulate problems 3. Models can give us insight and information 4. Models can save time and money rather than trying for real 5. A model may be the only way to solve some large or complex problems in a timely fashion 6. A model can be used to communicate problems and solutions to others Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler. Albert Einstein Scientific Evolution Sàrl – Quant. Learning & Performance Center for High-Potentials [email protected] – www.scientific-evolution.com - 4/51 - Quant skills Quant skills and High-Potentials expect from their employer more development, support, and investment – and they get it. Their also receive more development opportunities – such as special assignments and seminar as well as mentoring and coaching from senior leaders – than other employees to keep them in the organization. The extra investment from their employer is one reason why being formally recognized as a Quant skill and also a High-Potential is considered important to face a more complex range of challenges. Because High-Potentials are that illustrious group of individuals who are the rising stars in your organization they have to receive differentiated seminar that often includes additional options for "higher dollar" seminar to take on greater risks and responsibilities. Our seminars prepare your high-potentials skills in three ways for keeping them engaged so you can retain them: • Deepening understanding of fundamentals and advanced quant techniques (finance, forecasting, supply chain, quality control, optimization, etc.). • Providing a solid foundation in the principles of quant techniques and a unique opportunity for self- development and for your company management methods. • A learning approach that is highly informal and interactive with thought-provoking assignments, and real-life case discussions. When an organization sends us a Quant or High-Potential, it gains a more confident, competent business leader: • To manage change rigorously and drive results in a scientific way. • Thanks to his heightened curiosity about the world and the possibilities it holds. • Through his aptitude to turn ideas into actions and measure their efficiency scientifically.
