11 OH-11 Questions What do you need to get started? How can HRD help you? What should they be doing? How will (could) this strategy help you achieve results? Which results?

12 OH-12 Coaching Involves listening, observing, encouraging, and giving feedback. Shapes performance needed to meet goals. Involves setting objectives for learning and developing an action plan.

13 OH-13 Mentoring Provides advice, increases understanding of the organization, and helps build networks. Develops employees by increasing their skills and expanding their awareness and perspective.

14 OH-14 Mentoring (Continued) Mentors typically are not in reporting chain and are about two grades higher than “mentee.” Provides learning outside of normal channels or training programs. Prepares “mentee” for new job/function.

15 OH-15 Job Rotation and Special Assignments Job rotation involves detailing to positions preferably outside the current unit. Special assignments can be short- or long- term. Both should provide new skills and knowledge that are linked to organizational goals.

16 OH-16 Manager as Teacher You set the tone, pace, work habits, and behavior. Think of every interaction with others as a teaching opportunity. Ask yourself: What could be learned? How can I strengthen learning? Who needs to be here?

17 OH-17 Learning Teams Meet regularly to focus on own develop- ment. Form around particular area of interest. Manager’s role is to provide encourage- ment, support, and resources.

18 OH-18 Self-Development Identify what you want to learn and develop a plan. Use computer programs that help analyze skills and interests. Maintain learning logs or diaries to analyze “lessons learned.”

19 OH-19 Self-Development (Continued) Get involved in professional organizations or interagency committees. Read professional journals and trade magazines. As a manager, promote employee self- development by identifying learning opportunities.

20 OH-20 Individual Development Plan Developed jointly by manager and employee. Identifies development needs within the context of the organization’s mission and performance requirements. Helps achieve results because learning is structured and intentional. Review and update regularly.

21 OH-21 Meetings View every meeting as an opportunity for learning. Look for ways to improve communication and understanding among members. Discuss lessons learned from project reports and special assignments.

22 OH-22 Action Learning Group effort that involves solving real problems and focuses on acquired learning. Involves a sequence of discussion, action, reflection, further action, and reflection. Use when there are no obvious solutions.

23 OH-23 Cross-Functional Teams Composed of individuals with different backgrounds and skills. Collaborate on common work issues and accomplish same task. Learn from each other and acquire greater knowledge of business issues and decision- making processes.

24 OH-24 Workouts Super-accelerated reengineering projects. Teams meet—without management—to identify ways they can work faster and more efficiently. Can last from one to several days and conclude with a “townhall” meeting. Managers must make immediate public decisions to accept, reject, or ask for more information. Save time and money and have lasting impact on people.

25 OH-25 Strategic Planning Begins with the end in mind. Includes your vision of the future, mission, goals, and indicators of success. Sets a direction that everyone understands.

26 OH-26 Parallel Learning Structures Temporary groups that cut across traditional organizational boundaries. Formed to address a specific issue or need. Bring creative approaches to problems that have challenged traditional decision making. Result in bringing organization to a new level of awareness.

27 OH-27 Corporate Scorecard Tracks measurements that have meaning to the organization. Tracks both financial and nonfinancial measures. Distributed across the organization so everyone is reading the same “score.”

28 OH-28 Benchmarking Continually compares your organization with other organizations. Involves identifying areas that need improvement and studying “best practices” of those who are recognized leaders.

29 OH-29 Benchmarking (Continued) “Best practices” can then be customized to fit your own organization. Particularly helpful in looking at: –Meeting customer requirements. –Setting relevant, achievable goals. –Developing accurate measures of productivity.

30 OH-30 Flocking Involves small groups that come together to learn collectively. Promotes collaboration and exchange of learning, and establishes ongoing networks.

31 OH-31 Groupware Facilitates communication and decision-making processes. Allows for people’s anonymous input. Makes group work more efficient. Gives instant information about how work is progressing.

32 OH-32 Computer Conferencing An application of computer and telecommunications. Allows people to interact when separated by time and space.

33 OH-33 Aligning Strategies Review strategic plans Determine your contribution Identify and set up supporting learning Tie into business outcomes and ultimate organizational performance

34 OH-34 Next Steps Where do I want to be? How can I get started and get support? What do I need personally to carry out this responsibility?

35 OH-35 Quotation “Learning and performing will become one and the same thing. Everything you say about learning will be about performance. People will get the point that learning is everything.” — Peter Block
