Pre-job training will give your employees the knowledge they need before they need it.
My client, Dick, sent his 24-year-old plumbing foreman down to Orlando for me to train and relate the top management strategies for running his business. Ray started with Dick at age 18 and worked his way through a four-year plumbing apprenticeship program. His ability and effort moved him up to the top of the company’s jobsite management team, so we were preparing him to do likewise with the entire company operations.
Dick told me that the young man was definitely a superstar, but he did not produce good documentation or job-to-office communication. He also wanted him to learn about estimating, project management, cash flow and finances, as well as taxes and depreciation schedules.
