Boston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/01/2014 -- Nick Conner trains twice a day, seven days a week plus another three nights of sparring. All of this while making lunches, getting kids off to school and running a business that may entail international travel. So, why is he and so many other men and women deciding not to walk, run, cycle, or race for charity or fundraising? He and more and more people are participating in Haymakers for Hope to fight there way into fundraising. Not just the competitors but also the crowds of paying spectators that these events are drawing are really making these events very successful.

Boston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 04/01/2014 -- The frustration with corporate training and development can be daunting. Global business need to take in a breath of fresh air when it comes to training executives. Scavenger hunts, raft building, ropes courses, sweat tents, walking on coals and even culinary programs may be fun but these programs bring results? Do managers really become leaders sitting in a canned two to four hour a day workshop with fifty other managers from other industries?

There is a lot of talk in the business world about Nick Conner and his successful approach to creating high performance teamwork and providing leaders with the tools to lead successful teams. "Finally," say Nick's clients, "teamwork that is measurable, meaningful and most importantly applicable".

What do Nick's clients know?

Studies show that in-house training costs 73% more than outsourced training which can be very expensive. Among employees who say their company offers poor or no training, 41% plan to leave within a year which is also very expensive. Additionally, firms that invest $1500 per employee in measurable and applicable training compared to those that spend much less on canned, one size fits all training, experience an average of 24% higher gross profit margins. They also receive 218% higher income per employee. This is cost effectiveness at its best.
