Training Needs Analysis Management  Masterclass

"Train people well enough so they can leave, treat them well enough so they don't want to."

Richard Branson
Founder VIRGIN Group

- Do you believe that your employees can be better performers?
- Do you want your employees to be more 'switched-on' and become more 'self-starters'?
- Do you want to measure and optimise the performance of your employees?
- Do you want your employees to contribute more to your bottom line?

These are typical dilemmas Human Resources specialists, managers and directors face who on the one side are willing to invest in their workforce but on the other side they want a direct uplift on the bottom line from this investment. Add to that the phenomena of people fluidity and training becomes an 'iffy' investment.

In this two half days Masterclass participants will be learning all about Training Needs Analysis and how to use is Strategically to improve the bottom line relatively quickly.

Job Reviews and How to Do Them Across Various Functions

Cross Functional Assessment/Tools
We will look at how to build simple and effective cross functional assessment tools in MS Excel (templates provided) in order to capture, formalise and automate the number crunching process across various team functions using Kanban and Scrum techniques.

Goals Alignment
We will delve into the goal alignment between what needs to be done, what is being done and how it can be done in the future to meet defined purpose-goals. We will also explore how this can be done across multiple management laters, different skill sets and across different industries.

Designing Training Plans and Executing Them
We will examine how to design bespoke internal development programmes for teams and individuals and how to put these programmes in practice across various operational layers.

Performance Measurement
We will probe how to measure performance improvement across all programmes and also address areas of no improvement, resistance to change and lack of initiative.

HR Development Dashboards
Research show that such programmes need to be of strategic value to the organisation with high level commitment. This commitment has to be nurtured with appropriate figures on a regular basis to measure the change (delta) of the optimisation process. We will discover how best to come up with effective and efficient HRD Dashboards which a meaningful of the task.

HR Strategic Direction and TNA
Finally we will scrutinise how to use the TNA to strategically deliver through our teams the set goals for the organisation and build resilience to face business challenges.
