Employee Training in Manufacturing

Employee training is an important process manufacturers need to keep in mind to benefit both themselves and their employees. Tuning your employees’ skills while also helping them to feel wanted and appreciated at your company are both results of employee training. People want to feel that they are growing in their position and having an employee training program can aid in this feeling for employees. Along with this, new employees can get the proper introduction into the company and have a clear idea of what is expected from them.

Goal setting is an important part of success. In fact, goals are like a roadmap to a destination and without goals, forward movement can be directionless. Identifying the right goals is an important part of any strategy and can be effective in promoting both short- and long-term results. This is true in business but also true for life in general.

In a recent chat for USA Manufacturing Hour on Twitter, host, Pavel Stepanov from VirtuDesk led a discussion about setting effective goals for both the short and long term.

Technology roadmaps are a great organizational tool for any company to map out technology developments and to determine how those developments are going to change the way a company operates.

What?

A technology roadmap is defined as a planning technique to create strategic long-term and flexible plans for technology developments, adjustments and technology initiatives over time.

Basically, a technology roadmap focuses on a company’s short-term and long-term technology goals. There are three main uses for a roadmap: to reach an agreement about a company’s technology needs, to provide a forecast for technology developments and to create a framework for planning and coordinating technological advancements.
