Motivvit Solutions is a Greensboro-based training and workforce development firm. We partner with employers, public agencies, and education partners to strengthen leadership, improve workplace performance, and build workforce capability that drives results.

Employer-Centered Training, Designed for Workplace Application

Led by Dr. Toni M. Bennett, Motivvit combines more than 20 years of executive leadership, adult-learning, curriculum design, and workforce development experience.
Every engagement is designed around the employer's goals, the learner's workplace reality, and the outcomes the organization needs to achieve.

From Employer Need to Workplace Application

Motivvit supports the full training lifecycle, helping workforce partners and employers move from an identified need to an engaging learning experience, practical resources, and meaningful follow-through.

Five Steps

01 DISCOVER

Clarify the business challenge, target participants, workforce context, current gaps, and delivery requirements.

02 RECOMMEND

Translate the need into a proposed structure, learning outcomes, delivery format, sequence, and engagement strategy.

03 CUSTOMIZE

Adapt content, terminology, examples, scenarios, resources, and activities to the employer and participant group.

04 FACILITATE

Deliver an interactive experience using discussion, skills practice, reflection, problem-solving, and action planning.

05 EVALUATE

Review participant feedback, learning evidence, application commitments, and opportunities for reinforcement.

The Motivvit Learning Arc

CONTEXT

Connect the topic to the participant's role, workplace, and current challenges.

APPLICATION

Practice through scenarios, discussion, reflection, and skills based activities.

COMMITMENT

Identify actions to apply after the session and a plan for follow-through.

Every session moves participants from context to application to committed action. The structure stays consistent while the content, examples, activities, and resources are adapted to the employer and learner group.

A Repeatable Standard, Adapted to Each Engagement

Consistent structure

Every engagement follows the same arc, so employers know what they are getting and participants know what to expect.

Adapted content

Examples, terminology, scenarios, and activities change to match your workforce and your operating environment.

Measured outcomes

Each session ends with named commitments, so application can be reviewed rather than assumed.

Choose the Right Level

Every course in this portfolio can be delivered three ways. The difference is simple: does the course already exist, and how much of it changes?

STANDARD

Delivered as written

An established course, scheduled and delivered without modification.

  • Common professional development
  • Open-enrollment audiences
  • Short implementation timelines

Example: Time Management and Workplace Productivity, delivered as written to a mixed-department group.

TAILORED

Your terminology, your scenarios

The same course and the same outcomes, rebuilt around your workforce, policies, and real situations.

  • Organization-wide training
  • Supervisor and team development
  • Industry-specific application

Example: Customer Service Excellence, rebuilt around a client's own escalation scenarios and service standards.

CUSTOM

Built from your goals

A new program designed from discovery interviews. Outcomes, structure, and sequence created for you.

  • Supervisor academies and series
  • Organizational change initiatives
  • Specialized workforce needs

Example: A supervisor academy designed from interviews with a leadership team, built around their promotion pipeline.

Available Delivery Configurations

  • 60 to 90-minute focused sessions
  • Half-day and full-day workshops
  • Multi-session learning series
  • Cohort-based development
    programs
  • Two to three-hour workshops
  • In-person, virtual, or hybrid delivery
  • Supervisor and leadership academies
  • Train-the-trainer programs

What a Motivvit Engagement May Include

  • Employer discovery consultation and needs clarification
  • Customized facilitation plan, workplace scenarios, and case examples
  • Interactive facilitation and participant action planning
  • Optional reinforcement, coaching, or follow-up session
  • Recommended learning outcomes, format, sequence, and delivery plan
  • Participant workbook, resource guide, job aids, or application tools
  • Evaluation summary, employer feedback, and recommendations

Not sure which level fits?
Most employers start with a short discovery conversation. We look at who needs the training, what is prompting it now, and what constraints you are working within, then recommend a level and a format.
