Close Up Radio Spotlights Cassie Kane of Kane Learning
Newark, OH – Cassie Kane is the founder and CEO of Kane Learning, a highly regarded boutique consulting firm dedicated to helping leaders enhance business outcomes by developing the performance of their people.
On Tuesday’s show, Kane spoke to why the need for effective leadership is greater now than ever. In an era of such rapid growth and unprecedented change, Kane believes good leadership is the beacon that fosters innovation and sets the standard for the entire organization to thrive. But leading teams in times of change and uncertainty to take on even the most pressing challenges is not easily accomplished, unless you have an exceptional team of seasoned professionals in your corner. Developing that exceptional leadership talent is a must, and Kane will share insights on how to do just that.
Kane has made it her mission to help develop authentic leaders who make a positive impact on their organizations. Working with companies of all sizes, Kane Learning offers a broad range of services in three areas: organizational effectiveness to improve leadership skills and how teams work together, custom learning solutions to scale skills and behaviors throughout an organization, and strategic communication partnerships that help companies communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders. Kane Learning’s approach is integrative, collaborative, and rooted in continuous growth to help leaders inspire their teams to perform at their best, and that, says Kane, is first and foremost for any organization to achieve long-term success.
“Developing and growing leaders means examining critical issues getting in the way and opportunities that exist both internally and externally,” Kane says. “That’s why we partner with leaders to develop custom training programs, implement leadership development strategies, and guide strategic communication.”
Kane is excited to launch a new service in late spring called Spark Development, designed to bring leadership development to any organization's fingertips. Spark Development provides curated e-learning and resources on leadership topics, powered by an LMS so organizations can track completion and tie learning to performance.
“I’m excited to support our clients in a new way,” says Kane. “Spark makes leadership accessible for any organization, no matter the size. The interface is easy to navigate, the courses are engaging and interactive, and the learning includes application, so employees will be interested and know how to use what they are learning on the job immediately.”
In 2024, Kane Learning received the 2024 Better Business Bureau Torch award, an award that honors businesses for putting integrity into action. A testament, Kane humbly but proudly points out, to how they operate with a track record of integrity and high ethical standards.
Prior to starting her consulting business Kane, a notably high achiever with an unwavering drive for success, started working at a young age, embarking on a successful career in specialty retail. For nearly 20 years, her contributions to the field were influential and included a position leading the Bath and Body Works Learning and Development team. Kane credits her success to the many talented mentors she had along the way who helped shape her thinking about leadership. With a focus on strategic vision and a growth mindset, Cassie decided to try her hand at consulting, and in 2015, Kane Learning was born.
With tangible, proven sustainable results, Kane Learning is leading the way in developing tomorrow's leaders inspiring them to tap into their full potential and achieve the best results.
