Use This Simple Time Tested Process and Move Your Business Forward in 2006!
Another year is just about ready to finish and it is time to start thinking about next year. If you own your own business or you manage a business division, then you need to ask yourself if all of the expectations that were set forth at the beginning of the year were met.

This article relates to the Training competency, commonly evaluated in employee satisfaction surveys. It tells the story of a group of team leaders who worked together to find ways to use information sharing and communication to provide valuable employee training. A Gallup poll conducted in 1998 reported that eight out of 10 employees said they would be more likely to stay with their present employer if they were offered more or better training. Specifically, the questions included in this competency are written to measure the adequacy, availability, content of training, and satisfaction with the delivery of training within your organization.

This short story, Ideas for Everyday Training, is part of AlphaMeasure's compilation, Tales From the Corporate Frontlines. It illustrates how one department, under training budget constraints, found creative, low cost ways to use communication as an effective training tool.

Sometimes, effective training involves little more than paying extra attention to everyday communication practices. In my department, we have regular lunch meetings, just to touch base and make sure that everyone is aware of any new practices and procedures being implemented company wide, or only within the department.

We started this practice last year, when coworkers began to complain that they were caught unaware when new equipment and job functions began to appear in the department. They were given brief and cursory instructional sessions and left to their own devices. Soon after, an employee satisfaction survey yielded disappointing results in regard to the training competency.

Departmental budgets were very tight at the time, and only very basic, company-wide training initiatives were even being considered for funding. So a few team leaders in our department got together to try to find some creative ways to provide department specific training for employees, without spending a lot of money. We developed a few mini training programs of our own that have yielded impressive results.

One idea that's been hugely successful is the above mentioned lunch program. Sometimes we go out somewhere nice to relax, sometimes we order in pizza, depending on our workload. Our manager prepares a brief agenda, including the latest news, along with suggestions for articles and informative websites that are relevant to our business. We have a question and answer period, and employees are encouraged to come prepared to voice their opinions, concerns, and suggestions.
