PplDev helps you close gaps in employee performance by using appropriate methods to Integrate, Empower, and Retain valuable employees. Dennis Wade is principal of People Development Systems. His 20+ years as an adult educator and his ten years with Intel Corporation helped prepare him to provide employee development services. Leadership, team development, management skills, customer service, and on-the-job training programs are some of his areas of expertise. He has several certifications including Robert Mager’s Criterion-Referenced Instruction, Jeff Nelson's Expert OJT, William Bridges’ Transition Management, and Achieve Global’s Trainer Excellence & Organization Effectiveness. A graduate of UC Davis, he earned a Masters degree in Organization Development from the University of San Francisco. Tyler Wade spent nine years in the “win-lose” world of California politics before moving on to the positive, collaborative, “win-win” world of workplace learning and performance. His greatest thrill as a people developer is the “Aha! Moment”—that moment of clarity when some additional understanding, wisdom, or recognition brings learning home. He believes that is when learning is truly meaningful. Tyler has a master’s degree in Public Policy from Pepperdine University. He lives in the Sacramento area with his wife and two sons. Dennis and Tyler are co-authors of "The New Supervisor's Coach: A Guide to the Top 3 Priorities in Your New Position".
