“Good management is not what happens when you are there, but what happens when you are not there.” – Ken Blanchard
Whether you employ volunteers or paid members of staff, creating an environment in which they feel valued, motivated and enthused is key to retaining and also attracting the right people to positively represent your brand and promote your offering. Providing development support, advice and guidance can significantly impact your bottom line – investing in continual professional and personal development activities for both management and staff can increase efficiency, enhance performance and promote a positive working environment.
As contracted Human Resource Development Advisors with the Welsh Government, CIOTEK Ltd are able to work with eligible businesses on a full/part funded basis, supporting them in identifying areas for improvement, developing an action plan to address HR weaknesses, and obtain funding for training activities to minimise any skills gaps. Offering your volunteers the opportunity to learn and acquire new skills as they work can be a real boost – providing training can be a way of giving something back to your volunteers.
