If you’ve worked longer than a day in your life you most likely know the value of quality training. Whether you HAD the quality training and felt confident and content in your working environment, or you WISH you had it and were mostly dissatisfied with your work experience – everyone knows the importance of quality training.
So why is quality training such a big deal?
What organizations may not realize is that training affects both managers and employees.
From the management point of view, they want a healthy, productive, quality employee, and so they should be willing to do whatever it takes so they can achieve the positive end result.
Now, let’s take a look from the standpoint of the employee. While managers want a quality employee, employees want to feel that they are a competent and valuable part of the team. So how do employees become recognized and appreciated within their organization - by striving to become the productive, quality worker that managers are looking for.
So now that we know we have both parties on board with training, how do you make this happen?
- TRAIN, TRAIN, TRAIN until they get it
- INVEST time, money, resources...whatever it takes to get the job done properly
- MOTIVATE them on a consistent basis
Only good things can come from investing the right time, money and resources towards quality training. A well trained employee will develop a positive attitude toward their work; their success leads them to develop a stronger work ethic. In turn, they will also develop team spirit and leadership skills that transform the workplace. As a result you will get a more productive workforce, with employees that will represent your company well.
This is the epitome of a healthy and thriving workplace, and who wouldn’t want that for their organization?
But here’s what you DON’T want...
You don’t want to see a once zealous and hard-working employee become frustrated because they were not trained adequately...this will only lead to a drop in their morale and motivation, which leads to less productivity and loyalty to the company.
Think about what kind of employees and the type of working environment you want for your organization. Wouldn’t all managers want the best for their employees and company? Make the right choice and choose quality training for a healthy and productive workplace.
