What if we feel the participants need the training but they tell us that they do not have the time or resist the attendance of classes?
First of all, we do not anticipate this to be an issue with new recruits’ orientation types of programs. On other cases, our experience tells us that you are better off not pushing against resistance. We would recommend that the program be offered to few select people who are willing to self nominate for the program with their managers approval and are willing to put in the effort to finish the program with satisfactory grades and acceptable attendance. We do not believe that performance problems should be approved in the PRIDE Program. It is important to state the reasons why the company is making the investment for these few self selecting, motivated employees and why the competencies gained from the classes will be instrumental in the advancement of their career and for their marketability. Once the first graduation takes place, the feedback is so positive that with the right communications and internal marketing strategy there will be many people knocking on the door.
