You need to start out with an overall or strategic plan. This includes setting out your learning principles for the organization. You might also want to start with a series of short interviews with all your key stakeholders.

Send me an email if you want more help.

Learning Path Consultants has it:

What are your executive's key issues today and what key issues do they forsee being challenges in the future? (what keeps them worrying, what obstacles keeps them from maximizing the company's value)

Which of these issues can be addressed with a form of a training intervention?

Of these training interventions, how do we get these to the right employees at the time of need, and if needed, how do we track where employees are in training (this is your case for an LMS or not)?

Keep it very simple- find what issues your executives need resolved and start on these. Only deploy what is needed to address these before moving onto anything else, and do not overburden with extra administration of systems if they are not needed.
