What has the down economy taught us about training our employees? Quite frankly, A LOT! It’s more important than ever to have effective training with a positive ROI. 
Below are the top 5 things the down economy has taught us about training our employees.
- We have less time to attend traditional training events, so we must look outside the box to find effective solutions.
- We need better performance right away, there is no time for ineffective processes, course, or programs. We need to take another look at the types of training provided and align them with adult learning styles. Once we get better performance, training reinforcement programs must be put in place to keep the skills sustained.
- We have less people who need to do more, skills like time management are more important than ever.
- We need to validate with metrics, we can no longer train our employees and hope they learned something we must have a way to measure success.
- We need to re-assess and re-evaluate our current team. With less people to do more work, we have to make sure the people on our team are as capable and motivated as possible.
