Organizations
do realize that people are their most valued resources. And... there is so much
to do in running a department, group, division, that there leaves little time
for an organization to also focus on creating a strong workforce development
initiative.
I have worked
these last few years with organizations that are ready to invest in their human
resources. These organizations are investing and moving to uncover a clearer
picture of their personnel's' strengths and abilities. An additional benefit to
the organization is learning specifically where their talent gaps are, and where
the organization is growing and changing.
The outputs of
the workforce development consulting may include some of the following:
Competency domains and related tasks performed by the staff
Identification of personnel strengths and talents
Gaps where there are limited resources
Excess capability of staff not currently being utilized
Clarity and focus for the organization's strategic direction
Performance indicators and needs for the organization
Performance indicators and needs for the organization
Professional individual development plans
Career path progressions for the staff
Job/task analysis

Why Performance Improvement and not just "Training?"
Formal training
isn't always the answer to growing or developing your workforce. The goal is to
improve or maintain performance at a level that satisfies the employee and
benefits the work requirements of the organization. Developing staff may be an
individual or group activity.
Regardless of
the number of staff, it will be effective if it meets the needs of the
organization and the learning styles and motivations of the learner. Solutions
may range from formal training to informal learning. The latter may include work
rotations, mentorship, coaching, external educational conferences, workshops,
etc. The list can be long and rich in its value to both the organization and
staff member.
Performance
Improvement is a broader view and focus of how an employee may grow to offer
significant value in the workplace.
I am a
certified performance technologist (CPT) awarded this designation by the
International Society for Performance Improvement (ISP). This professional
association is dedicated to improving productivity and performance in the
workplace. My career in performance improvement began as an instructional
designer for government subcontractors and has evolved to be more than just a
developer of training programs.
My focus is to
support the organization by connecting with their personnel to encourage
increased motivation to take ownership of their development in support of their
employer. The coaching expertise I bring is blended with my knowledge of
training development for an integrated approach improving workplace performance
and the organization's support of its greatest assets.
