Staff Development

Not only is working in an environment of mutual respect and cooperation more pleasant for everyone, it is also a factor in a school's overall success. Increased outcomes across the board including the bottom line results can be enhanced by increasing every staff member's understanding and commitment. When people feel a part of the big picture, regardless of the level of administrative responsibility, their performance is boosted and much more involvement is generated. They feel valued, they offer more suggestions, they focus more on quality, they offer more help to fellow employees, and they do not consider their position a mere link that may or may not matter.

Ask yourself these questions:

• Does every support staff member go the extra mile?
• Do all employees understand their roles in building and retaining the student population?
• Do you often experience support staff involved voluntarily in school operations or activities that do not fall into their areas or your expectations?
• Do you have requests from support staff employees to get more involved and learn more about the school and promotional opportunities?
• Would your school receive a customer service award if a survey were conducted today?

Staff development is a Training Masters strength. When we work with schools and organizations, time and time again we discover untapped resources, interests, and abilities within the support staff. While many leaders and managers are struggling with getting more productivity out of fewer people, wearing multiple hats themselves, utilizing fewer full-time and more part-time employees, streamlining duties, trying to find the turnover solution, and worrying about making budgets, some are getting the results they want by devoting resources to staff development to build morale, commitment, and the desire to contribute to the school's overall success.
