The Hazard of Not Training
Our most successful employees are the ones who have the persistence and optimism to learn from difficulty and use what they learn to re-imagine, recreate and re-experiment.
They are the ones who have learned to be positive and to constantly hunt for opportunities. As the economy struggles to recover, successful organizations will reinvent their futures by focusing on these opportunities.
When the going gets tough, the first thing to normally go off the budget is training. If you are thinking of this, then be warned! Recent research has shown that this can be false economy. Those firms that do not train are two times more likely to fail.
While some curse and yell, others see failures as opportunities. Poet Maya Angelou writes, “I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he or she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights.”
Failures can either destroy or advance our goals; but it’s our response to them that really determines the outcome. During a recession, people are fearful of the future and morale may be low. Well planned, evaluated and integrated training can lead to higher productivity and higher profits.
What percentage of your employees’ potential, do you think you achieve on a daily basis?’ The most common answer is 60%! What answer would you give?
Imagine what it would mean to your business if you gained a further 5 -10% productivity from your team on a daily basis. A highly skilled, knowledgeable, motivated, and well managed team can be the difference between success and failure.
The important thing in achieving that is identifying training that gets the results you need. Supervision is a relationship, one in which both supervisor and supervisee actively participate and interact. It is a process of unfolding- not simply following a recipe, but engaging in a rich and dynamic relationship.
To train supervisors and managers effectively, you need a program that’s easy for you to deliver and that requires little time out of busy schedules. Also, if you're like most companies in these tight budget days, you need a program that’s reasonable in cost.
