Case Study: Able Engineering & Component Services achieves 20%+ sustained annual growth and unlocks 200,000 hours of capacity with Skillsoft

Able Engineering & Component Services - Customer Case Study

Able Engineering & Component Services is an aviation component overhaul specialist that has pursued continuous improvement to stay competitive. CEO Lee Benson, influenced by Jack Welch’s leadership teachings, wanted to scale the Welch Way program across the company and create a proprietary evaluation system to ensure the leadership principles were applied and conversation extended company-wide.

Working with Skillsoft, Able rolled out the Welch Way to its leadership across three business units and built an online operating system, Execute to Win, to institutionalize accountability and track business outcomes. The program helped deliver sustained 20%+ CAGR, uncovered nearly 200,000 hours of capacity in one year (avoiding roughly 100 hires), and positioned the company to grow in size by about five times.
