投資
員工培訓(xùn)對公司來說是一種投資(investment)。盡管效益不會在當(dāng)下顯現(xiàn),但培訓(xùn)中對相關(guān)領(lǐng)域內(nèi)知識的講解有助于提高員工的業(yè)務(wù)技能和生產(chǎn)效率,在競爭中領(lǐng)先對手一步(keep one step ahead of the competition)。培訓(xùn)有助于企業(yè)文化(company culture)的發(fā)展、凝聚力的形成。

為了讓培訓(xùn)達到最佳效果,員工應(yīng)當(dāng)對培訓(xùn)的目標(biāo)有清晰的認(rèn)知。
⊙What kind of results did we get from the training meeting?Was it worth the expense and investment?
我們從培訓(xùn)會議中能收到哪些效果?花費和投資都值嗎?
參與
無論哪個級別都有培訓(xùn)的必要。新員工需要產(chǎn)品、服務(wù)、客戶等相關(guān)知識,中層管理者需要提升管理能力和執(zhí)行力,高層管理者需要在領(lǐng)導(dǎo)價值和商業(yè)道德(leadership values and business ethics)等方面充電。

⊙Welcome to our safety training meeting.歡迎來參加我們的安全培訓(xùn)會議。

總結(jié)
培訓(xùn)帶給企業(yè)的利益當(dāng)下不易見到,但確實不容忽視。把從實踐中總結(jié)的經(jīng)驗和知識通過培訓(xùn)傳授給員工,可以提高企業(yè)生產(chǎn)效率。企業(yè)的文化通過培訓(xùn)可以灌輸給員工,提高工作熱情和士氣。培訓(xùn)就是給企業(yè)充電。

實景對話1
A:This week's training is for all new employees. Attendance is mandatory for all employees with less than one year of service with the company.
B:What a waste of time. Training is costly because it takes away from valuable working hours. It's just an excuse to get out of work.
A:That's not strictly true. While employee training does take time out of the work schedule, it is still a wise investment. Training promotes a culture of learning and keeps employees at their best.
B:Really?I find that hard to believe. What kind of results did we get from the training meeting last month?Was it worth the expense and investment?
A:Actually, you would be surprised. Employee motivation was up after the training meeting last month. We have record high morale.In the training meeting, employees were able to learn new technologies and methodologies, which has resulted in financial gain for the company.
B:Well, all the meetings that I've been to seemed to be boring and pointless.
A:Perhaps you weren't adequately prepared.To get the most out of the training session, employees should be very clear on the goals of the training.
A:這個星期的培訓(xùn)針對所有新員工,進公司少于一年的所有員工必須參加。
B:真能浪費時間。培訓(xùn)實在是代價高昂,因為它搶走了寶貴的工作時間。那只不過是一個擺脫工作的借口而已。
A:嚴(yán)格意義上說不是這樣。員工培訓(xùn)是占用了一些工作時間,但那依舊是明智的投資,培訓(xùn)促進了學(xué)習(xí)的文化并使員工保持最佳狀態(tài)。
B:真的嗎?我覺得難以信服。我們從上個月的培訓(xùn)中收到了哪些效果?花費和投資都值嗎?
A:事實上,你一定會很吃驚。上個月培訓(xùn)后員工的積極性得到提高,我們的士氣高昂。在培訓(xùn)中,員工們能夠?qū)W習(xí)新的技術(shù)和方法,并在公司的經(jīng)濟收益中顯示出效果。
B:我參加的所有那些會議都是百無聊賴,毫無意義的。
A:或許是你沒有充分準(zhǔn)備。為了使培訓(xùn)達到最佳效果,員工就得對培訓(xùn)目標(biāo)有清晰的認(rèn)識。
實景對話2
A:I'd like to welcome everyone to our safety training meeting. Please sign your name on the attendance rolls. Let us know if we're missing anyone.Any employee caught playing hooky from the training meeting will receive disciplinary action.
B:That seems pretty harsh……
A:It might be harsh, but this is a very important topic. Safety first, you know.
We don't want to have the liability of employees who have not been properly trained on safe working procedures. That's why attendance is mandatory.
C:I thought this workshop was geared toward senior management. But everyone is supposed to attend?
A:Yes, this is an office-wide training. The main topic for discussion today is how to safely complete your job responsibilities. Let us consider the different job tasks you have to complete each day.Which of these pose a risk to your health and safety?We want to do something hands-on today.I am going to put you in pairs and have different safety topics to discuss……
(an hour later)
A:So, in conclusion, we can all make our workplace a safer place when we work together. You're all going to practice implementing what you've learned today by making a safety chart for your desk.
B:You're kidding!We have homework, too?
A:Yes!Oh, and don't forget, next Monday will be our company-wide diversity training.
A:感謝各位來參加我們的安全培訓(xùn)會議。請在會議考勤冊上簽上你的名字,好讓我們知道誰沒有來。哪個員工被發(fā)現(xiàn)逃避該會議將受到紀(jì)律處罰。
B:看起來好像還挺嚴(yán)格的……
A:嚴(yán)格是理所應(yīng)當(dāng)?shù)?,因為這是一個非常重要的主題。安全第一嘛,你知道。我們不想承擔(dān)沒有讓員工接受工作環(huán)節(jié)安全培訓(xùn)的責(zé)任。所以說參加是強制性的。
C:我原以為是對高級管理人員的培訓(xùn)。但是每個人都被要求參加。
A:是的,這是一個辦公室范圍的培訓(xùn)。今天討論的主題是如何安全地完成你的工作職責(zé)。讓我們說說你們每天不同的工作任務(wù),有哪一些是對你們的健康和安全構(gòu)成威脅的?今天我們要親自動手做一些事情,我將把你們分成兩人一組,討論不同的安全題目……
(一個小時以后)
A:好,總結(jié)一下。我們都能夠使我們一起工作的辦公場所更加安全。各位將做一個安全圖張貼在辦公桌上,然后練習(xí)今天所學(xué)到的技能。
B:你在開玩笑嗎?我們還有家庭作業(yè)?
A:是的,還有別忘記了,下周一將是全公司范圍的多元化培訓(xùn)。
