Default Tips for Training Employees

Neglecting to survey a training class is like shooting darts blindfolded. You have a general sense of your target, but hitting it is mostly a matter of luck and guesswork. Gathering information on attendees several days ahead, however, gives you time to profile the group, customize your presentation to its makeup, and maximize your company’s return on its training dollars.

An emailed questionnaire can expedite their responses and provide the information in a format that’s quickly summarized on a spreadsheet which makes it easier to review and digest. Collect details from these three areas:

1. Experience and Responsibilities
If trainees have similar jobs, this information may not be terribly important. If they come from a cross-section of positions or management levels, though, it’s good to know some general information about their current positions, major responsibilities, and career history. Use it to build rapport with various members of the group, draw on their individual backgrounds for examples or viewpoints; develop thought provoking questions; deal discreetly with controversial or sensitive topics; and generally “work the room” for more class participation than you’d get if you simply walked in with a blank sheet of paper.

Ask for these basic facts:
• Job title
• Department
• Major duties and responsibilities
• Number of people supervised
• Length of time in present career
• Length of time in current position
• Years of service with the company

Training is very important. It can increase the knowledge and efficiency of your employees, at the same time, reduces monotony and boredom at work. It can also be a strategy for retention.

Most small business owners take for granted the practice of training there employees. It is key to remember that these employees represent the company and are usually more in contact with the customers than upper management or sales. If they have poor training or lack PK this will cause many an unhappy customer.

But the greatest training would be train them to be initiative. Some people even if they already have experience and has a lot of knowledge still can't be reliable without initiative. And it is also important to train them to be competitive and confident with what they do. But doing that would be hard...

My biggest tip in trainging is:
Be a leader, not a director!
Show people how to do it, that way they'll do it to your standards.
