Training

Are you training and developing your staff to tackle the issues they will face, tomorrow?

Most training is reactive, it’s about filling gaps in skills or knowledge, but don’t you actually want your staff to know what they need to know tomorrow, or the next day, or next year?

If you think about it, training and developing staff to do the work they did yesterday better doesn’t really make sense.

That is why, at Top Banana we encourage our clients to look ahead and equip their people for the future.

It is why we take more time than is usual to really understand your clients’ needs for the future. So we can put a programme in place to maximise the return on your investment.

We then encourage line management and HR to take ownership of the agreed content and reinforce the importance to them and the company. All programmes must have deliverables for the future (Action plans). These action plans should be monitored and when the committed completion dates have passed they should be able to demonstrate how these were achieved. An effective way to re-enforce this is to link this to their appraisal review.

Learning is a lifelong pursuit and personal development is the individual’s responsibility. All learning is fun, working smarter not harder is the key.

Training Philosophy

  • Clearly identify the need, desired outcome and objectives.
  • Design programmes which meet the individual company needs, objectives and goals.
  • Make the experience enjoyable, fun and interactive.

Follow up and measure improvements ensuring a return on investment.
