Director · PwCBusiness-impact learning solutions
Help your teams win more trust, deliver sharper work and grow client accounts.
When client expectations rise, proposals become harder to win and managers are stretched, Breaking Barriers Training helps consulting teams build the behaviours that improve revenue conversations, delivery confidence, stakeholder trust and leadership consistency.

Professional services credibility
For firms that need expertise to show up as revenue, trust and repeatable delivery quality.
We design around the moments that affect business outcomes: discovery calls, qualification, proposal strategy, procurement pressure, difficult client conversations, delivery escalations and adoption after the workshop.

Manager · EYBusiness problems we help solve
Practical solutions for the issues sponsors usually need fixed first.
Each solution targets a visible business problem and connects it to the right BBT platform, diagnostic, simulation, survey, LMS journey or client-facing intervention.
Slow adoption of AI at work
Help consultants use GenAI for research, notes, proposals, client communication and quality checks while protecting judgement, confidentiality and output quality.
View solutionWeak senior stakeholder conversations
Build sharper CXO conversations with stronger business framing, insight-led discovery, confident challenge handling and executive-level responses.
View solutionLow proposal conversion and unclear win themes
Turn scattered inputs into stronger proposal storylines, executive summaries, differentiated proof points, solution logic and pitch narratives.
View solutionMargin leakage during price pressure
Equip leaders to respond to procurement pressure, price pushback, scope creep and concession requests without weakening value or trust.
View solutionLow credibility in senior rooms
Increase senior-room confidence by building calm authority, structured messaging, crisp responses and executive presence under pressure.
View solutionEscalations that damage client trust
Help teams reset expectations, surface risks early, handle dissatisfaction and preserve trust during complex delivery situations.
View solutionTraining impact fades after the workshop
Use the Learning Impact Platform to extend sessions into assessments, practice tasks, certificates, progress dashboards and post-programme reinforcement.
Open platformPeople know the concept but cannot perform it
Use roleplay simulations to practise client pushback, feedback, negotiation, stakeholder influence, sales conversations and escalation moments before the real meeting.
Open platformLeaders lack honest behavioural feedback
Collect structured stakeholder feedback and convert it into coaching themes, development priorities and measurable leadership action plans.
Open platformFuture-leader readiness is unclear
Assess leadership potential, ownership, judgement, stakeholder maturity and communication readiness through behavioural assessments and printable reports.
Open platformLeaders do not know what employees really feel
Run anonymous satisfaction and culture surveys to identify what is working, what is not working and where trust, fairness, pride or collaboration need attention.
Open platformClient loyalty risks stay hidden too long
Use NPS pulses to measure advocacy, friction points, relationship health and service improvement priorities before dissatisfaction becomes escalation or churn.
Open platformValues remain posters, not daily behaviour
Make culture visible through peer recognition, behaviour examples, point transfers, manager views and leaderboards linked to the organisation’s values.
Open platformAccount growth is dependent on individual memory
Install a consultative sales operating rhythm for stakeholder mapping, discovery, white-space planning, proposal discipline and next-best actions.
Open platformRevenue, follow-ups and relationship ownership are scattered
Use the Business Tracker and CRM to manage clients, contacts, opportunities, proposals, training revenue, retention actions and monthly reviews.
Open platformWorkshops become passive and hard to measure
Run polls, quizzes, whiteboards, Q&A, forms and team activities so classroom sessions become participative, evidence-rich and easier to debrief.
Open platformClient-ready positioning
Designed around the moments where client value is won or lost.
The work focuses on behaviours clients notice immediately: sharper discovery, clearer executive communication, better proposal quality, stronger commercial discipline, mature stakeholder influence and faster AI-enabled delivery with human judgement.

BBT operating method
Find the business blocker. Build the behaviour. Prove the improvement.
For consulting firms, learning only matters when it survives utilisation pressure and improves day-to-day decisions. Our design combines short interventions, consulting toolkits, deal routines, coaching cadences and evidence that sponsors can use.
Diagnose
Pinpoint the client, commercial or leadership behaviour that is slowing performance.
Install
Turn the desired behaviour into scripts, decision tools, routines and realistic practice.
Embed
Make the new behaviour stick through deal clinics, manager nudges, simulations and cohort reporting.
Engagement formats
Start with one high-value problem, show movement, then scale with confidence.
A single solution can begin as a senior pilot, expand into a cohort lab and then become a measurable capability journey.
90–120 minutes
A sharp session that gives senior teams practical language and tools they can use immediately.
Best for pilotsHalf-day
Realistic practice and feedback on one priority behaviour that affects client outcomes.
Best for behaviour shiftOne day
A deeper practice sprint for managers and client-facing teams who need more consistent execution.
Best for cohortsBlended
A complete journey with diagnostics, workshops, simulations, LMS reinforcement and manager follow-through.
Best for scaleMeasurement and reinforcement
Give sponsors proof that learning is changing behaviour, not just attendance.
When HR, L&D or practice sponsors need measurable adoption, we add diagnostics, roleplay simulations, 360 feedback, leadership assessments, LMS modules and manager dashboards.
Before
Readiness checks, stakeholder interviews, capability pulse and role-specific scenarios.
During
Cases, roleplays, business writing, pitch practice, live feedback and action planning.
After
Simulation replay, LMS reinforcement, manager nudges and 30-day transfer tasks.
Report
Cohort insights, capability gaps, adoption metrics and next-step recommendations.
Recommended first move
Solve one visible business problem with one consulting team first.
Start where the pain is most visible—AI productivity, CXO conversations, proposal quality or executive presence—then scale what works into a diagnostic-led journey.
