Lengel Vocational Services, Inc. is a workforce and career development organization. Our special niche is inspiring and promoting an entrepreneurial (”E-Ntrepreneurial”) workforce across America.
We’re All About the “E” …
We’re all about the “E” and mainly that means Entrepreneural thinking! The “E” is energy, excellence, education, effectiveness, essentials, empathy, envisionment, exuberance, engagement, environment, establishment, and much, much more. And did we say the “E” happens everyday (E-Veryday)!
Entrepreneurial Focus and Lifestyle …
Entrepreneurs already exist in our workforce. Some own their own businesses. Others work for businesses and organizations in the local community. No matter where they work, entrepreneurs are the people around you who naturally see problems as opportunities for success.
While most people see a problem and worry, The “E-Ntrepreneurial Workforce” sees opportunity in every new problem. They seize the initiative by solving problems. And they achieve success and climb their own career ladders by serving others.
That’s the kind of thinking we promote at Lengel Vocational Services! The “E-Ntrepreneurial Spirit” can be caught. “E-Ntrepreneurial Activity” can be taught. And the “E-Ntrepreneurial Lifestyle” can be learned and passed on to others! That’s what we do at Lengel Vocational Services! It’s what we are all about!
Services …
Our primary purpose is to train and inspire workforce and career development professionals. The workforce and career development professionals — in our schools, career centers, employment offices, colleges and universities, and other locations — are the people who will have the greatest, ongoing impact on a local workforce.
We also work directly with dislocated workers and at-risk youth. Our message of creating opportunity and achieving success through “E-Ntrepreneurial Activity” plays well with many different groups in today’s changing workforce.
We deliver training at conferences and in local areas and school districts across America. We also teach the National Career Development Association’s (NCDA) Career Development Facilitator (CDF) curriculum. Of course, we put the “E-Ntrepreneurial Workforce” slant on the CDF training program too.
Our Background …
We have been in business since 1989, providing private counseling and facilitation services to individuals making career decisions. We have also delivered services through federally funded programs, such as the Jobs Training Partnership Act (JTPA), Welfare-to-Work (WtW), and the Workforce Investment Act (WIA).
Our client base not only includes individuals, but also local workforce investment areas, state and regional workforce training organizations, local school districts, community-based organizations, city and state governments, and privately-owned businesses and corporations.
The Success Story …
The bottom line is “success.” We teach success! We promote success! And we enable workforce and career development professionals to prepare their customers, clients, and students to be successful in tomorrow’s workforce – today!
Success is not an accident. It is a deliberate, intentional process that anyone can learn quickly and begin to practice immediately. And because success is contagious, it can transform an entire local workforce. The key is understanding the important relationship between “inspiration” and “transformation”.
Approachable Excellence …
One good friend recently said of Lengel Vocational Services, “You guys have approachable excellence. You do some amazing things, but you are for real. And what you do is easy for others to access!”
That just about sums it up! The Lengel story is a success story. It was built on the same “E-Ntrepreneurial Attitude” we share with others. If you want to know more … or if you would like this to be part of your story too, contact the Lengel team today!
Remember … success happens now, or it does not happen at all. Today matters!
