Removing the Roadblocks to Performance Improvement |
Every change initiative (including training, process development and PMO
installation efforts) faces a variety of operational and cultural hurdles.
In all performance management efforts such as project management or customer
service, potential problems abound.
The best training efforts can lead to little or no return on investment
if these barriers are not addressed in an organized fashion. Of equal
concern is the fact that each failed initiative makes successive
initiatives less likely to be successful (i.e., just like success breeds
success, so too does failure breed failure). Conversely, by addressing
these basic issues early in the life of the initiative, you can
significantly enhance the return on your investment.
Here are just s few of the systemic barriers that our approach helps you
to address: |
-
Managing resistance to change
-
Ensuring alignment between consequences and
desired behavior
-
Managing the performance infrastructure
-
Ensuring that the training is tailored to
the needs of the audience
-
Ensuring that management is aware of and
supportive of the training initiative
-
Measuring skill application
-
Creating a direct and clear link between the
training being offered and the strategic and operational goals of the
organization
-
Building awareness, ownership and commitment
to actual performance improvement
