5 Challenges Companies face in Training & Continuous Improvement that we address with Tr-Action

1. We just don’t have the time to stop production and train.
2. We sent people to get training before and they had trouble implementing what was learned.
3. Implemented Continuous Improvement efforts never stick around, we always slide backwards.
4. Our business is unique and have struggled to find a trainer that “gets” us.
5. We know it is important, but we have trouble justifying the cost of training.

How Tr-Action addresses these challenges:

1. We just don’t have the time to stop production and train.
   To be honest, no one has the time to stop production. We get that, but we also understand that without training, your company can never get any better than it already is right now. We work with leadership to address two things: How to select an area/opportunity of focus and how to then build a team that will minimize disruption to production.
2. We sent people to get training before and they had trouble implementing what was learned.
   This is a frustrating conundrum for both Leaders and employees. Leaders want to see results for their investments, and employees want to have the opportunity to implement what they have learned. Unfortunately, both groups are oftentimes left disappointed. Tr-Action addresses both of these opportunities by combining focused classroom training with immediate, hands-on, application in their own environment. This not only ensures results for the Leaders, but it also reinforces the learned principles and tools.
   
3. Implemented Continuous Improvement efforts never stick around, we always slide backwards.
   Sustaining efforts is always the hardest step! We help you overcome this in a variety of ways. First, we make sure that all parties involved have been trained concerning the necessary steps to ensure sustainment. This training includes both Leadership and front-line employees. We also leave the group with the tools needed for sustainment. This could include any or all of the following: KPI tracking boards, routine audits, Standard Work documents and robust training/development plans.
   
4. Our business is unique and have struggled to find a trainer that “gets” us.
   Trust us, we “get” you! We agree that you are unique, but we have also established tried and true principles that can help ANY business run to its potential. We start off all Tr-Action engagements with a Master Planning Session with Leadership to help us identify the strengths and challenges of the company. We utilize what we learn to create a focused plan moving forward. This ensures that while we are training your team, we are also focusing on your biggest challenges.
5. We know it is important, but we have trouble justifying the cost of training.
   The Effective Syndicate’s clients have historically enjoyed 5:1 ROI with our engagements. For example, if a company spent $10,000 on an improvement event, they can expect $50,000 in improvements. Want to hear a little bit more, watch this case study to see how we identified over half a million dollars worth of cost reductions and improvements.
