Training for Report Interpretation, Feedback and Action Planning

Your survey consultant can provide training for other levels of administrators, department heads, and managers. They can either train them directly in one-day sessions, or can train staff to conduct the training. As an alternative, if you want to weave in some of your management development approaches to this training, they can share our methods with your management development group and they can modify it to be consistent with your development objectives.

Organizations that are most successful in driving change with the help of Strategic Organizational Surveys spend as much or more time and resources on survey follow-up and actions as they do in survey administration. Organizational Survey follow-up and actions are most influenced by effective management training. Manager training is invaluable for driving organizational change through surveys. Training would include data analysis, employee involvement techniques, targeting the priority issues and change management skills.

Training may also focus on: a review of organization-wide priorities; individual manager responsibilities; analyzing survey data; utilizing problem-solving and action teams of employees; conducting employee feedback meetings; action planning strategies; identifying key issues that are actionable; measuring business improvement; post-evaluation communication techniques.
