Training provides employees with guidance on how to become a manager and advance within the firm.

Project purpose or justification including specific measurable business impacts or results (fewer than 50 words)

The purpose of this training is to provide the staff (including management) with the tools to better manage their day to day responsibilities. Thereby saving time and money, lowering overtime costs for the company and providing better service to the customer base.

Measurable project objectives and related success criteria including metrics (Provide three to four objectives with metrics)

Employees must be armed with special assessment tools that enable them effectively work in the organization. Simulations and work samples enable employees understand the task at hand effectively give their best. Problem solving skills encompassed with structured and unstructured interviews will give a credibility check on all employees to make them concentrate on giving their best. Managers and supervisors will have to be positive in the workplace. Building good communication among their inferiors will ensure a positive rapport develops between them which will improve the efficiency of the company (Okes, 2013). Problem solving when issues arise should be handled with uttermost care from the superiors. This will build trust between them and the employees. On the other hand, employees must build a team player technique which will enable them earn promotion. Moreover, an employer needs to make themselves indispensable and more reliable.
