Ask any CEO what it takes to survive in a harsh economic climate, and they'll point to flexibility, running lean, and staying ahead of trends and changing technology. Tami King started Technically Speaking in 2002 to help her client companies do just that.
"For eight years," King says, "we've provided onsite training directly to corporate IT departments, as well as military and federal agencies nationwide." Technically Speaking has even established a global presence, offering services for Microsoft Certified Learning Partners around the world.
"When I started the company," King says, "the IT training industry was going through a slump. Schools were going out of business and instructors were being displaced. Many instructors had been travelling and teaching classes for companies that filed bankruptcy while owing them $40,000 or more a pop. Soon enough, I found myself unemployed."
The major setback became a unique opportunity. "I personally knew many of the instructors that had been impacted by unethical companies, so I decided to start Technically Speaking. It really had been a vision for a couple years."
Today, King is focusing on expanding services and working with more Latin American-based businesses. "The biggest challenge," she says, "is that I don't speak Spanish or Portuguese, but I have a lot of instructors who do."
King's vision for saving clients time and money by providing on-site IT training helps them keep a competitive edge. Most importantly, she's keeping those highly-trained experts out there doing what they do best—sharing information.
