Until just over a decade ago, employee training was not a particular priority for many businesses in the Western world. New employee orientation was generally deemed the province of the new recruit's immediate superior, who was tasked with the business of directing him or her towards the cafeteria, pointing out whom to avoid as a general rule, and perhaps running through the 'how to pick up your monthly salary' procedure.
Nowadays, however, companies fork out millions for employee training programmes which familiarise the worker with the detailed ins and outs of the company. Employees spend time at training conferences, educational retreats and workshops dedicated to teamwork, synergetic interaction and productivity.
Is this money well spent?, some might ask. Should employees not arrive at a company fully trained? Is it not the duty of the education system to prepare workers for the workplace.
And what is more, how much do employees really take away from the workshops, conferences and retreats? Isn't there a chance they simply arrive and doze off, lulled to sleep by the monotony of corporate education?
The second of these two objections is by far the more pertinent. While it is the duty of the schooling system to ready employees for the workplace, it cannot be said that college teaches the specifics of individual company politics in any detail. However it can be said, on the other hand, that employee training is occasionally boring. In short, corporate education programmes are useful, however it is necessary that they are run in such a way participants stay away. Learners who enjoy the learning process, studies have shown, take more away than those who are comatosed with their heads on desks!
