How Annem Trust OS lives inside our other programs

  • Audience: Individual Contributors

    On the surface, goal setting is a tactical skill: define objectives, align on metrics, track progress. But the way you set and communicate goals is an act of Interpersonal Banking.

    In our Goal Setting program, participants do not just learn SMART goal frameworks. They learn how the process of setting goals builds or erodes trust with the people around them, and they practice doing it in a way that strengthens both clarity and the relationship.

  • Audience: People Managers

    This is where trust is most visibly on the line, and where most managers get it wrong.

    The instinct in underperformance situations is to avoid, delay, or soften the message so much that it loses meaning. All of these are trust withdrawals: to the underperforming employee who deserves honesty, to the rest of the team who sees the issue going unaddressed, and to the manager's own credibility.

    Our Managing Underperformance program teaches managers to navigate these situations as trust-building opportunities rather than trust-destroying ones. When done well, a performance conversation can actually deepen trust because the employee experiences a manager who cares enough to be honest and is committed enough to help them improve.

  • Audience: All Levels

    Cross-functional projects are trust stress tests. They bring together people from different teams, with different priorities, who often have no formal authority over one another. The only currency that makes the work move is trust.

    In our Project Management programs, participants learn to manage not just tasks and timelines but the trust dynamics that determine whether cross-functional collaboration actually works. They learn to see every handoff, status update, and escalation as an Interpersonal Banking moment.

  • Audience: All Levels

    This program flips the trust dynamic in an important way. Most people think of trust as something leaders build downward. But trust flows in every direction, and individual contributors who manage up effectively are making deliberate deposits in their credibility through competence, reliability, and transparency.

    Our Managing Up program helps individual contributors see their relationship with their manager as a trust bank they actively manage. It gives them a framework for understanding why some requests land and others don't, and practical strategies for building the trust that makes upward influence possible.

What Makes Our Programming Unique

Human-Centered Design

We approach program development with empathy for the learner experience. Our programs aren’t just information transfer; they are designed to create moments of connection, understanding, and practical application well after the session ends.

Grounded in Learning Science

Our programs leverage evidence-based instructional design principles, including spaced retrieval practice and scenario-based learning. We design with cognitive load in mind, ensuring learners can absorb and retain key concepts without feeling overwhelmed.

Customized to Your Culture

We don’t believe in generic, one-size-fits-all programs. Every part of the learning experience will reflect your unique values, language, and business model. Learners will see themselves and their work reflected in the content.

Built for Scale and Longevity

As former HR and Talent Development leaders, we understand the operational realities of learning programs. We design programs that are easy to maintain, update, and scale as your organization grows. Our source files and documentation ensure your team can make future adjustments without dependency on external vendors.

Partnership Approach

We view each project as a partnership, not a transactional engagement. We bring our expertise in instructional design and learning systems, and we collaborate closely with your subject matter experts who know your company best. Together, we create learning experiences that are both pedagogically sound and authentic to your organization.
