Learn and Contribute More

It is well said, "मैं सब जानता हूँ.. यही सोच इंसान को कुएँ का मेंढक बना देती है". Everyone learns throughout the life and one should keep mind open to learn new things.

       

Every Organization is committed to realize success by attaining its goals. It is rightly said that Success is being content, happy and satisfied with who we are, and continuously striving and challenging ourself to be the best person we can be. 

Training boosts Happiness Levels:

Whenever a person participates in any training program and start learning, unlearning, and relearning the knowledge and skills useful to perform better in workplaces, it increases happiness level. Training helps in building and maintaining social relationships. The participants feel they are undergoing self-improvement and exercising their participatory skills, ‘citizen flow’, thereby bolstering happiness levels. 

Assessing performance of training organizations:

There are plenty of organizations involved in providing training to the students, employees, animals, and birds. Everyone requires to assess their own performance and like to know their contribution. Merely a positive statement cannot justify their contribution. The assessment of money spent, the evaluation of outcomes arrived, and the figures of change in the whole situation requires a lot of effort. How to do such evaluation which can be seen as fair evaluation in the eyes of participants, client organization, sponsoring organization, and even for the trainers themselves. 

Filling Competency Gaps:

A trainer is expected to identify the Competency Gaps and fill the same through organizing training. The performance is increased and the organization be capable enough to fight competition and defeat other organizations. Let recall a statement: 

"When we know the enemy and we know our self, we need not fear the result of a hundred battles. When we know ours elf but not the enemy, for every victory gained we will also suffer a defeat. If we know neither the enemy nor our self, we will succumb in every battle, therefore read the adversities clearly, completely and be committed in life to perform - Good or Bad, let TIME decide..."

The contribution of training can be evaluated on various parameters.

Always remember,"जूनून आदमी से वो करवा लेता है जो वह नहीं कर सकता । हौंसला आदमी से वो करवाता है जो वह कर सकता है। परन्तु अनुभव उससे वही करवाता है जो वास्तव में उसे करना चाहिए !!"

It matters when an Employee is not adding value to an Employer:

The future is related to more use of machines, gadgets, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, etc. The time has come to replace the most of the work with robots. Why?

The robots can perform better in many aspects because they cannot do strike for demanding anything employer is not giving. They don't require tea or lunch breaks. They need not to be absent after office hours and can work consistently for giving high performance. 

The employees who are not adding values to the employers, soon be replaced with the robots. The robots are not competitors to the employees. If an employee is doing less in terms of generating revenues and a robot is capable to do more work with less cost as compared to the employee, he/she will be replaced with the robot/s or machines. This is the lesson everyone has to understand. The jobs are no more for the employees without potential to add value in an organisation. Gone are the days when it was not possible to find alternative to a person's work. Today it is required to be responsible and lead life with gratitude.

Learn Honesty from a short story

He had not told his mother that he was the Railway Minister.

 It was said that "I work in railways".

 He had once come to some program when his mother also came there asking if my son has also come, he is also in the railways. When people asked what is the name, when she told the name, everyone was shocked " said she is lying".

 But she said, "No, he has come".

People took him in front of Sh. Lal Bahadur Shastri and asked, "Is he the same?"

So the mother said "yes he is my son"

People showed her to the minister and said "is she your mother?"

Then Sh. Shastri ji respectfully took his mother and made her sit with him and after some time sent her to the home from where she came.

Then the journalists asked "why didn't you give a speech in front of her?"

He said- My mother does not know that I am a minister.  If she comes to know, she may start recommending people and I will not be able to refuse and she may also get arrogant too.

Everyone was stunned on hearing the answer. Sh. Lal Bahadur Shastri was so much selfless, truthful, and honest person. I salute him from my heart. 

A book on assessing contribution of training organization:

The trainer’s guide is the best book describing the whole process from pre-training to during training and post training evaluation of a training. Now-a-days, with the change in technology and new methods, new approaches, there is requirement to develop an app for making the whole process quantified through machines, computers, or robots. The artificial intelligence to detect the level of performance with assessing the change in numbers; requires the joint effort of technology experts and trainers to be developed..... <<Continued...What, Why and How an event is evaluated>>
