Training Needs Analysis No 1: Know Thy Staff
How do you communicate with them (daily, face-to-face, email, meetings, visits, communicator, webinars, and social media: LinkedIn/Twitter)
What do they like to do?
DO they read the paper, do they like presentations? Do they like to connect together as a group e.g. social evenings? Are they playing games on their Phone?
Do they have small children and would like to nip off 30 mins early and then would they read your communication at home for 30 mins?
Do you have regular training sessions?
Some people do not fill in training needs analysis information and so observation of how they work is very important.
When you are making changes in your company you want to engage with your staff as quickly as possible so that they buy-in to the changes. They understand the changes that are coming and what it will mean to them. They are
positive with the changes and you know it is for the best reasons.
They have been consulted at the start and can take some ownership of the new system or the new processes.
Tip No 2 is coming along.
