Wordhoard’s training and mentoring supports cover a wide range of topics and skills.
Areas include visitor experience development, business idea development, and marketing destinations to domestic and international audiences.
If we do our work well, we help you to do things for yourself.
We give you insights, we suggest strategies, and we support you through the early stages of implementing those research-based strategies. But our main goal is for you to be able to progress as independently as possible after that point.
We work directly with tourism and retail clients. We also provide training on behalf of agencies including Fáilte Ireland and LEOs, delivering workshops and one-to-one mentoring supports to SMEs, business clusters, and communities that are looking to develop and achieve growth.
We provide ongoing supports on a tapered basis on occasion, but we know our work is done well when we get to watch as you work away for yourself and click ‘love’ on the signs of your success.
The training and mentoring supports we provide are often delivered on a confidential basis, but sample engagements include:
