Updating Skills: One Way to Recession-Proof Job March 24th, 2008

I needed a corporate team building program to help keep my employees on the right track. This recession has them scared and frankly, I don’t blame them. One way to ensure that you keep your job during times like this is by updating your training. I enrolled all of my people in organizational development programs and leadership training.

It was hard to have a third of the office out at a time but we managed. I told of them to display their new skills without being obnoxious. I knew this would be difficult for a few of them but I wanted them to know that I and my colleagues would be watching them.

This training turned out to be great. I really saw my employees’ skills on display and it showed through to everything. Our customers loved it and sales increased. I think I’ll continue to have training for my team even when the market is good.
