Visual Management and Awareness are just some of the skills I bring to the table. If training is the only means to an end, what is the end toward which it strives ?
It's PERFORMANCE . To contribute toward the success of the organization, you need people to perform their jobs and understand them. Unless they perform their jobs they can not accomplish your organization's goals and objectives. The key word here is ( Do ). It does not matter that someone is highly
knowledgeable or highly skilled. If that person doesn't do anything - if, that person doesn't perform the knowledge,it will be of no value whatsoever and there will be no results, no accomplishments no attainment or achievement.
Training is indispensable, when people need to know something,
( they don't know at the time), however performance requires more than skill. The facilitation of performance is a joint effort. Just as surgeons alone cannot assure health of their patients, and just violins alone cannot create the sound of an orchestra, trainers alone cannot assure the job performance
of the people they train. Successful job performance requires the following four conditions: * Skill, * Self Confidence, *Opportunity to Perform, *A Supportive Environment.
A supportive environment is one that encourages desired performance and discourages undesired performance, it is an environment in which workers are given reasons (incentives) to perform in a desired manner, a clear description of the results to be obtained and the standards to be met.
I am capable of accomplishing any objective in a timely and budgetary manner, I have a proven track record of team accomplishments in integration/standardization of Scheduling,Order Management, Call Center/Corrective Action, Process Flow, Crossfunctional Deployment,Min. Max.
Inventory Control, Metric Development and Measurement of Team Activities Supply Chain Flows and Accountability, Vendor Certification and Partnering. I prefer to use Critical Success Factors and Critical Success Indicators as my goal analysis to reduce the likelihood of misinterpretation or second
guessing, this process has been proven and is a Just In Time Tool ,to asses and provide real time data and accomplish multiple priorities both in written and graphical format to the front line, it also allows everyone to celebrate when goals have been accomplished due to time lines and Milestone illustrations.
I want to be part of a team that strives for excellence and expects the very best of its employees, I look forward to talking and discussing the future with you.
Sincerely,
