Delray Beach, Florida - April 30, 2002-Steve Strelsin, CEO of NewMindsets, Inc. joined Jack Kemp on his television show, "Business First", to discuss the specific needs that NewMindsets is addressing in the "soft skills" area of the workplace.

"We are filling a critical need for performance learning versus the compliance learning that is primarily being offered by other companies. We believe that learners get far more impact and value from accessing the right amount of content on demand, versus accessing whole courses they are required to take," says Mr. Strelsin.

Mr. Strelsin also noted "interpersonal skills, leadership and conflict management are among the soft skills that represent the biggest threat to organizational performance but they are also the skills that get the least attention. In today's workplace, there is a limited amount of time, and learning in this type of environment needs to be accomplished in smaller quantities to be most effective."
NewMindsets provides situation-based learning and engages learners through focused reflection and application to their issues. The learners control the learning experiences, and can document and share experiences through an online notebook. Mr. Strelsin described, "Being able to apply the learning immediately to a real issue increases the use and impact of the system."
