Organizations are doing many of the same activities right now. They’re budgeting and planning for the New Year. They’re speculating about what the new government will be like and the impact it will have on business. While we don’t have all the answers right now, there’s a few things we do know.

Organizations expect to accomplish their goals. To accomplish goals, organizations need to have high-performing employees and high-performing teams. This involves a training and development investment. High-performance doesn’t just happen. It takes having an intentional plan to give employees the knowledge, skills, and abilities they need. 

If you’re looking at your training and development opportunities, here are a few articles that might help you focus on the topics to cover for high performance. 

3 Proven Ways to Make New Team Members Feel Welcome and Included

Making new hires feel welcomed and included should begin at the candidate stage and continue during orientation and onboarding. In fact, some organizations have new hire buddy programs to help with the process.

Team Building and Team Development Are Not the Same Thing

Team development and team building serve two different purposes, this isn’t an either/or situation. Both should be done. A group that has team development but not team building might struggle because they don’t understand their role and goals. And a group who attends team building without team development might know what they’re supposed to do but not have the skills to get it done.

Managers: The One Thing to Improve Employee Performance

Employees want to hear feedback about their performance. This isn’t a generational thing. Specifically, individuals like getting well-thought-out feedback, with an emphasis on the “well-thought-out” part.

Create Effective Organizational Change Through Leadership Development

The key to successfully managing any type of change starts with leaders. Organizations should give leaders the training and tools they need to manage change at every level. And that happens during leadership development.

Organizations that want a high-performing workforce need to start the process at the very beginning with onboarding. Employees should receive training for their role as well as development on how to be a good team member. Managers need to provide regular feedback to employees about their performance. And everyone needs to learn how to effectively manage change. It looks like that will be critical in the years ahead!

The business world is constantly changing. We should expect it. But organizations still need to make money and accomplish their strategic goals. The only way to do that is with the right workforce. Focusing on high-performing teams will create a competitive advantage.
