A question I often get asked by CEOs is how important is it to link manufacturing training to our business goals?
And here's what I've got to say-
To achieve the business goals, linking them to manufacturing operations training is a must. Only then can the organization strategically align the entire workforce to achieve operational excellence.
There are three main benefits to linking training with goals, namely- firstly, training empowers employees and motivates them to do their best at work. Also, there’s enhancement of skills which ensures that employees operate machines safely, optimally leading to workplace safety, decreased equipment downtime and increased productivity. This goes in line with the business’s goals of increasing output while decreasing costs.
Secondly, well-trained employees have a solid grip on the production process. This ensures that the process output is of consistent quality, so no rejects or rework, thus further increasing manufacturing efficiency and decreasing production overheads. Quality products also ring in customer satisfaction and repeat sales.
Training employees with the latest manufacturing technology and operational excellence tools further motivates them to innovate and/or suggest ways to improve existing processes, thus cutting costs.
Last but not the least, motivated employees have higher job satisfaction. So lower turnover and skill drain. Highly motivated employees can do wonders for their organization. For example, they can increase customer satisfaction leading to increased sales and the company can achieve brand leadership.
Training is not just skill development. It is a vital tool for employee engagement, employee retention, enhancing productivity as well as to foster innovation. Linking training to business goals will take your organization on the path of operational excellence and market leadership.
