Tips for selecting the right training program for your team.

When it comes to choosing the right training program for a team, it can be so overwhelming. A couple of months ago, I signed up my team for a workshop that sounded amazing on paper, but it didn’t address our specific challenges at all. We needed help with collaboration across departments, but the training focused more on generic leadership tips. How do you make sure a program will actually meet your team’s needs before committing to it?

This is such an important topic. I think the key to any successful training program is understanding your team’s strengths and gaps first. A lot of people jump into training without really assessing what’s needed, and that can lead to a mismatch.

In my case, I’ve found that programs with follow-up sessions or feedback loops work best. They help reinforce what’s been learned and ensure that the team actually applies the skills in real situations. Just my two cents!

That’s a great question! I’ve been in a similar situation before. One thing that really helped me was looking for programs that could be customized for our team. It’s worth checking out options like https://cmaconsulting.com.au/ because they offer tailored training for specific skills like collaboration and decision-making.

A tip from my experience: talk to the provider beforehand and explain your goals. A good program should be flexible and address what your team truly needs. This approach saved us from wasting time on irrelevant training, and the results were much better.
