Here's a hypothetical elevator
speech to convince a supervisor that training is still an important asset in the organization.
Mike let’s talk training. Be
honest, are you an expert with the Microsoft Office Suite, or do you know all
the ins-and-outs with the passport software application, and do you have the
time to spare to help your folks when they need it?
Training doesn’t always
occur in the classroom. Effective training
also occurs in informal settings, while still influencing employee performance
improvement (Matthew, 2103). We help you
make your job easier; we ensure we are in line with your office vision and
effort.
How about job aids, eLearning
videos, or one-on-one time. We can individualize based on you or your
employee’s needs, focus specifically on the need at hand, chunk the information
into bite size morsels with less impact to the daily mission (Neal &
Hainlen, 2012).
We take the time to become
the experts with the software and develop methods to enable your folks to immediately
apply what they’ve learned.
Consider this, the cost
when Joe asks John how to do something in MS Word after struggling himself,
taking John away from his work, in reality, both are taken from their work. Top
that, with the realization of the bad habits Joe picks up from John, costing
even more time, and money.
Think about it.
