« Back to Human Resources Management (HR)Using training effectively (HR 28)
An effective team
Training can make a mediocre employee good at something, and a good person excellent. On the other hand, a person without training can be a brake on the business.
Whether you are aiming for increased sales, more efficient production, better use of IT, or simply a reliable team that can solve its own problems, training is often the best solution. By taking a systematic approach, you can achieve an excellent return on your training investment.
This briefing covers:
- Identifying your important training needs.
- Deciding on the training objectives.
- Creating a training programme.
- Monitoring and evaluating training.
Personal development plans (HR 29)
Win-win at work
Personal development plans provide a powerful, flexible way to link employees' professional and personal development with the development of your business.
A personal development plan is a short, unambiguous written document - usually one side of A4 paper - that maps out how a person can develop skills and progress in his or her job.
Using PDPs, you can engage your people's abilities, commitment and knowledge to maximise their potential and that of your business.
This briefing outlines:
- What personal development plans involve.
- Who needs PDPs.
- How to implement PDPs.
