About

Hilton Worldwide is an American multinational hospitality company that manages and franchises a broad portfolio of hotels and resorts.

Impact partnered with Hilton to create two dynamic programs that leverage creative behavioral simulations and practical skills to build ‘executive presence’ for high potentials and high performers. 

The Executive Presence programs develop executives’ ability to lead effectively in the hospitality industry’s ever-changing business environment. They are strategically anchored programs that develop mindsets and behaviors around executive presence; influence in high-change environments; and authentic leadership. Participants collaborate and address real business challenges, while practicing the creation and delivery of critical leadership messages. Both programs engage participants though a series of behavioral simulations that increase their capabilities in real-life, high pressure situations. 

The results to date have been outstanding with all key metrics achieving greater than a 4.5 out of 5. This program was also awarded the 2015 CLO Learning in Practice Award for Excellence in Gaming and Simulations.

"This part of the programme is always done in the early stages; the difference it has made to clients has been overwhelming. Once clients have returned they are more motivated, their managers notice a big difference from carrying out their daily activities to taking on new responsibilities, and they speak highly of the staff that supported them.”

"My brief to Impact was to create an assignment that would unite senior people in a common task to demonstrate that their combined skills create greater capacity to find solutions to strategic problems. Using the parallel challenges within the NGO’s brief, this event enabled us to address the challenges of strategic marketing in our organisation. Plus the team found extra motivation from the fact that their marketing expertise was able to really help Sight Savers."

“Training at KPI has undergone a significant transformation to focus more on talent development. Senior KPI managers are closely involved in the programmes and act as observers to provide verbal one- to-one feedback, which greatly benefits the candidates. We also encourage people to take personal responsibility for their individual growth by creating their own development plans and this is achieving high levels of buy in and commitment.”
