Righttrack Press Release

Righttrack’s Kasmin Cooney awarded OBE for services to Training and to Exports

Kasmin Cooney, Managing Director of Righttrack Consultancy, has been awarded an OBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours 2011.

Kasmin comments “The OBE notification arrived as a complete surprise. I see it as not just as recognition of my efforts over the years but for all the immediate and extended Righttrack team who all contribute to our work in the training industry.”

Kasmin founded Righttrack Consultancy in 1988 and has built it into one of the UK’s top training companies with 35 learning and development specialists and a business team of 10. Nearly half of Righttrack’s sales come from outside the UK and it is Kasmin’s single mindedness and determination which has helped her to crack tough markets like the Middle East.

Under Kasmin’s leadership, Righttrack’s success has come from working in close partnership with clients to design learning interventions that are bespoke to their unique requirements.

Kasmin attributes the award of the OBE partly to her innovative and creative approach to training. “We take time to understand important things such as the client corporate culture, vision and direction. People are important to us, so when we design training programmes we like to know about the roles and responsibilities of the different delegate groups and the challenges they face in their day to day work. We want our clients to feel they have an extended training department and that the Righttrack team are part and parcel of their team. “

Kasmin is very much looking forward to her upcoming visit to the Palace to receive her OBE.
