Why is TRAINING important?

What's one of the first line items to get slashed when the company budget gets squeezed? It's training for employees that often ends up on the cutting room floor. Unfortunately, trained and energized employees are just what a company needs to stimulate growth and problem solve in the lean times. Here are some of the reasons whey employee training is so important...

The innovation, flexibility and dedication that are necessary to build truly dynamic companies come from well-trained and supported employees. One of the best ways to encourage and support individuals in your workforce is through professional development and training opportunities. As employees develop new skills, increase networking and represent the company out in the larger world, and develop leadership opportunities, the business work environment becomes infused with energy and creativity.

Sending employees to training opportunities, or bringing opportunities into the company, actually infuses a business with new ideas and creative ways of solving old problems. Sometimes, just getting employees out of the day-to-day grind of their everyday work schedule is enough to jump-start energy and encourage employees to recommit to their jobs and the company. But learning new skills and interacting with new and different people has a direct impact on the productivity and development of the work environment.

Trainings need not be expensive or last several days in order to be worthwhile. Workshops, classes and cross-training in other departments within the company can be as invigorating as expensive courses and conferences. Encouraging employees to learn all they can about the company--not just the department where they work--is one way to approach training. Providing individuals with information about accounting, production, marketing, or other aspects of the business can give them a good overall understanding of how all the pieces work together to contribute to the whole, as well as how their individual jobs or department fits into the whole, big picture.

Manusia adalah faktor utama. Dalam sebuah organisasi, perusahaan, yayasan ataupun dalam sebuah kelompok. Pendidikan formal telah membekali pribadi pribadi dengan skill yang diperlukan. Namun perkembangan menuntut kita untuk tetap selalu belajar dan belajar.

Belajar adalah membangun kemampuan dan menginstall value value positive. Sebuah organisasi akan berjalan dengan jauh lebih efektif, bila angota teamnya memiliki  value value positif dalam dirinya. Dan inilah yang membuat sebuah organisasi berjalan dengan jauh lebih baik dan efektif. Disadari ataupun tidak, terlalu banyak permasalahan di kantor yang seharusnya tidak perlu terjadi. Namun harus terjadi karena kemampuan dan attitude karyawan yang kurang baik atau belum mengerti bagaimana menyiasatinya.

Belajar juga merupakan proses produksi ide-ide, karena belajar adalah sumber inspirasi, memicu dan memacu ide ide segar dan temuan temuan baru. Belajar adalah pupuk asli untuk sebuah pertumbuhan.
