Training Management: Employees Will Appreciate It

All who have spoken to a hiring manager has heard the complaint that good people are just too hard to find. The secret is that the reason for this isn't that there aren't any good people. There are plenty of highly skilled and qualified employees in the workforce. They just don't go on the market - they're just too darned happy where they are. A big part of the reason for this is that they didn't necessarily start out as highly skilled and qualified, but were brought to that level through management coaching and competent business.

Certainly many CEO's have a Harvard MBA, but well below the CEO level, the fact is that a large percentage of management started out at the bottom. There's not much reality to the old quip "Why back in my day, you started at the bottom - and by God, you stayed there!" In fact, everyone knows that competent training management (often called "on the job training") is one of the chief ways companies have of increasing the worth of their in-house talent. And this worth doesn't just leave the company indeed.

Employees want to know that they are important to their companies. Investing in an employee validates their contribution. The various forms of training management let them know that their company is willing to help them become more successful. This results in employees feeling a greater stake in their company and being less enthusiastic to work elsewhere.

Another dirty secret is that training management works well for companies whose employees don't know exactly what they're worth. Unlike employees holding a Harvard MBA, those with training management do not have a piece of paper that suddenly makes them too expensive to hire. At the same time, though, they are often just as motivated, perhaps even more so, after taking on the paid job training than someone who has just slugged through academia. This is one of the many reasons companies are eager for training management.

Another function of a company is change management, just as important as training management. Would that the market never moved! That once we designed a product, we could keep selling it forever. But the fact is that change is a constant part of our world, and even a product as venerable as Coke gets a redesign from time to time - not to mention the ad campaigns. Through continuous management, a company is able to keep its workforce very new.

Diplomas last forever, but changes occur continuously in the world of business. But even Harvard sees change occur all around it and must adapt. Change management helps your company stay current in an ever-changing world.

There are not many skilled people available in the job market because they are happy where they are. A major reason for this is that they did not necessarily start out as highly skilled and qualified as they have become, but were elevated to that level through constant and competent business and management coaching.
