L&D has the power to change your behaviour towards a situation, a task, the team & the organization. Make the growth trajectory visible to all the employees. The only cape that can save the economy during these untoward times is your most valued asset – The workforce.

L&D Triggers Teamwork and Cohesion

We find employees not sharing a social bond beyond professionalism. When people mingle with colleagues in a team while interacting with an L&D Module, they tend to keep aside their thought perspectives. Giving it a boost on the team operations effectiveness. Acquaintances in a team tend to collaborate their best to achieve a greater output as compared to sessions framed for individuals. The attributes of discussions, brainstorming, communication, resolving, supporting, debating & forming a final stand as a team can build a strong bond amongst the workforce. As per the survey of SHRM, 77% of employees stand that their relationship with their colleagues is an important driver of engagement & motivation. With the acquisition of skills & tools, individuals can greatly contribute to the overall performance of the organization.

How does Training Modules Impact Employee Engagement?

What makes an organisation a Great Place to Work? A perfect play of time can help us explore, evaluate & explain to us the different aspects of the employee experience map. By measuring the Employee Happiness Quotient & Satisfaction, we find employees are more than happy o step out of their routine to learn & unlearn a skill that can help them progress at work & move efficiently. In a world that has replaced hard work with smart work, learning & development push every boundary to be a relevant resource with the right set of skills. Many employers tend to look at this domain as a risk, but the new normal adds the view of an essential practice that can add value to your people as well as the organisation. Remember the crux of a Best Employer attracts the Best Employees, the more training you give, the more productivity is reaped.

Plan the Best Suited L&D Program

I. Analysis

An Employer should first plot the Organisational goals, along with Functional objectives that can have definite key results attached. Competencies of employees, Personal analysis is a must to understand one’s demography and needs before you introduce an L&D Module.

II. Plan

It is highly essential to translate training into practice. These objectives serve as the starting point for the design of the training’s content and the methodology followed to impart training. The active dosage of these modules across a year can have a better impact on the employees.

III. One Size Does Not Fit All

Training methods can either be trainer-centred or trainee-centred. Pacesetting, referral handouts, active exercises, and many more factors are some of the detrimental factors. Each department might have a different set of needs that has to be catered to, and each learning and adopting style might vary, thus a flexible yet customized approach has to be conquered.

IV. Post Event Engagement

Does your training have an everlasting impact? How do make sure, employees take learning to their work tables and eventually combine them in the tasks assigned to them. In-cubicle training at work can have prominence more than just theoretical expression. We believe the place of work can be an office or even home. Post-event engagement & deliberate interaction with the employer is a necessity.

V. Tracking Progress

Linking learning and career growth to employee interests and aspirations. A Simple yet powerful way to make operations transparent is to view every employee’s way ahead. Career Growth Trajectory is one of the major reasons that can hinder talent retention in an organization. You can start today.
