Employee training that is custom-made for your organization can make the difference between an effective program and a waste of company time. Find out how a series of custom development sessions that our team facilitated in Canada helped the Royal Canadian Mint discover the tools to manage a large change within their organization.
THE QUESTION – “Do you have any custom programs that could help us tackle a large change to our business model?”
Our team is proud to partner with organizations all across North America in working towards a broad range of business goals. When the Royal Canadian Mint connected with our team, they were looking for a custom training and development program that could help them manage a major shift in their marketing strategy.
As a commercial Crown Corporation in Canada, the organization needed a completely customizable program that would speak to the unique aspects of their company and help employees:
- Recognize the changes that needed to be made
- Gain the necessary skills to effectively manage the change
- Define a strategy to implement the change
THE ANSWER – “Custom Change Management”
A customized three-part learning and development program, with a focus on executing and managing change, was the ideal solution.
Each session allowed different groups from the company to focus on different stages of implementing the change:
- Session One: The first session was held in November and focused on preparing over 65 employees for change within the company.
- Session Two: In December, the Mint’s leadership team participated in a program that provided the skills and mindset required to lead employees through change.
- Session Three: The final session in February provided another group of 65 employees with guidance on how to implement the change.
Highlights from the sessions include:
- Employees learned how to prepare for a major shift in how they do business.
- The leadership team learned how to manage change, and found alignment on how to lead employees through the shift in their business model.
- The Mint team learned and practiced the skills necessary to manage the change, and employees left with a concrete list of actions.
- Each group gained skills and a comprehensive understanding of what it means to be ready for change, how to create an effective strategy, and ways to take action.
