Company Description

The Regis Company is a leadership development consulting firm that not only teaches people what to think, but how to think. The managing directors and teams have years of experience formulating and shaping the next generation leaders. We are assisting our clients to become value workers in a fast-paced global business environment.

Job Description

Working in a project capacity, you’ll apply your creative talent toward the design of award winning leadership development programs for some of the world’s most recognizable corporate brands.  Your experience authoring advanced level interactive education programs using adult learning theory will add even more depth to our skill portfolio – that means we can take on more incredibly cool projects!  But wait – you can’t just rest on your academic credentials – we need your business acumen, experience managing complex change and international experience as well.  We regularly engage free agents to help us with unique projects or to enhance our internal team – want to jump in our pool?

Some of the cool stuff we might ask you to do:

  • Participate in visioning sessions with the project team and client stakeholders to define and document project objectives and requirements
  • Create simple, elegant and educationally rigorous designs for simulations, including design flows, wireframes, storyboards,  assessments and feedback, and course materials for both the student and the facilitator
  • Interpret and communicate technical, abstract, and complex constructs in ways that make sense to the your audience
  • Partner with  graphic artists, programmers and client stakeholders that identify optimal solutions to learning challenges
  • Travel to clients’ sites depending on need – some months require up to 25% based on project needs

Qualifications

What you’ll bring to the table:

  • MS or MBA in a business, instructional design or education discipline
  • A minimum of three years of experience designing learning programs for an adult audience
  • Exposure to and interest in business simulations or rich multi-media learning
  • Demonstrated knowledge and thought leadership in adult learning theory
  • Experience creating learning focused on core thinking practices – creative, critical, and systems thinking
  • Ability to adapt instructional design practices to an Agile work environment
  • Ability to negotiate scope, schedule and effort tradeoffs with subject matter resources and team members based on value to the learner and the program
  • Advanced level competency with MS Word and Excel
  • Exceptional personal, written and presentation skills – executive presence – authentic, respectful and kind
  • Innovation, an eye for detail, and strong communication skills with the self-confidence and willingness to tackle unchartered territory
  • Pride in producing a quality work product whether completed individually or as part of a team
  • Ability to travel to either our Denver or Chicago office without a plane ticket as needed
  • Goal-oriented mindset with a drive to meet identified project success measures
  • Creative problem solving ability and logical thinking
  • An address within 100 miles of Golden, Colorado

 

Our consultants enjoy:
