Overview: |
HR and OD professionals face tremendous pressure
to improve required performance. All too often, the
response to such pressure is…training; despite
numerous studies and documented cases demonstrating
clearly that training is rarely sufficient and often
ineffective as a stand-alone solution for achieving
long-term desired performance goals. If you have not
properly diagnosed performance concerns, determined
highly probable causes of a performance gap, and calculated
costs and values of alternative interventions, any
solution implemented is merely a guess solution. The
likelihood of successfully implementing sustainable
results is slim to none. During your efforts, you
have spent valuable resources and wasted employees’
time.
This interactive 2 day workshop provides you with
systematic methods for not only taking the necessary
steps to diagnose performance issues before you prescribe,
but also helps you cost out your interventions and
calculate what the organization will receive for its
money and effort. This research based approach is
a result of testing in organizations such as Sun Microsystems,
Hewlett-Packard, Manulife Insurance, and other small
to large firms.
