We are continuing to journey towards your success through Engaging Your People. There are so many facets of the work environment that can be engaged to give amazing results.  However they are so often overlooked as the drive to get to quick revenue takes over.Whilst we need revenue to succeed , we can't just drive towards it without taking into account our people, or at least not for too long, until things start to derail. This is where I talk about formal training programs being one of these hidden gems that can really support the structure and backbone of your business through engaging your people. This should be an area that you focus on as it links to everything else your people do in, with, and for your business. Hence it's one of those areas that can help complete your people engagement tool kit and drive massive returns and success.

We have a great mix of Global businesses, small and large that listen in every week, a big congratulations as you  employ 57% of the planet's population, and their needs are often overshadowed by the needs of Big Business in most countries or economies. So if you are finding your business in this situation, and your training has gone out the window or is not effective please reach out to us at IBGR.  We are here to help improve your ability to succeed by focusing on you and your business. You can always reach out at our version of a Chamber of Commerce. Join Up and gain access to our Hosts and access our library of best practices. Or you can contact me directly at www.apexbrs.com.

Show Objectives

Today’s show is about Formal Training Programs for Job Demands, Career development, and Organisational Development, and why they are so vital to get right. Without them you lose many key people benefits in your business, and miss out on really achieving the success that you should. This is an often overlooked key piece of your people management toolkit, and should not be forgotten as the benefits it brings are huge.

 Every business has some type of training need from onboarding, specific technical competencies, management, leadership, marketing, sales, communication etc.. Investments in talent development help to improve job satisfaction and retention by providing a path for personal and career development.  At the same time having open, inclusive and supported training programs will help to improve the culture in your business, as they lead to staff feeling valued and recognised, which in turn spreads to their work ethic and motivation. To really capitalize on this in your business, you then need to take things to the next level, and also provide training programs around organisational development. When this occurs you have the opportunity to fully engage your people and really increase the potential of the success of your business. However, this is a big mindset shift for many businesses, as it means training programs needs to be valued as an investment and not seen as a forced cost. If you can shift your mindset here you will reap massive benefits.
