New Manager Training Archives

You spoke and we listened! You asked for more convenient, effective support for your managers to internalize and apply Predictive Index^® concepts in your workplace. Now your leaders can review the core concepts of PI^® and improve their feedback skills easily through three 30-minute online courses.

Introduction to Behavioral Science and the Predictive Index is for anyone who wants to learn about the roles behavior and motivation play in employee productivity. This course covers the history of behavioral science, applications to business, components of the PI system, and case studies. Cost: $50 per person.

Two additional courses, Predictive Index Review and Delivering Powerful Predictive Index Feedback, are designed for those who have already been trained (they have already completed the Predictive Index Management Workshop^™). These two courses review concepts, refresh skills and provide interactive practice. Cost: $100 per person/per course.

Each of these courses is designed with the adult learner in mind. They are self-paced, content rich, and packed with science-based information that can be put to use immediately. They are delivered through the online PI Worldwide E-learning Center, providing anytime, anywhere distance learning. They are convenient and cost effective.

Beginning March 1, these three courses will be bundled with the instructor-led Predictive Index Management Workshop for a new price of $2,135. This is an improved approach to learning. Research shows that blending instructor-led training with online training improves knowledge retention. Attendees will be asked to complete the introductory course before they arrive for the first day of class, and complete the two other courses on their own within 90 days after they leave the classroom.

We are excited to offer these new ways for you to achieve workplace excellence and drive your organization’s success. As always your feedback is welcomed and encouraged.

Now that the economy is on the upswing, the job market has improved somewhat. What does that mean for you as an employer? There are more options out there. Now, I’m not implying that jobs are growing on trees. However, compared to what it looked like a year or two ago, the climate is indeed better. Let’s make sure we don’t only view this from the standpoint of our recruiting metrics and ramping up our new manager training, but also focusing on top talent and those with performance potential. Can anything be done to determine where you stand? Yes. First, assess if there is work to be done in improving employee morale. An anonymous assessment that systematically collects the right data can measure employee morale, loyalty, along with the percentage of your team that is at risk and to what extent. You won’t know exactly who is considering jumping ship. But, you will have accurate data that can’t be obtained otherwise. Consider it a check-up. If improving employee morale is an issue, a strategy to address it can be created and implemented. If not…whew! Breathe and sleep more easily. You may be uncertain if gathering this information has true value. Yet, when you look at the potential costs associated with inaction, assessing employee morale as a preventative measure seems like a pretty good idea, no?
