Hi there,

Warm greetings from Onno and the entire crew at tealside! ??

It's that time again—time for our "Power Skills to the People" update, where we delve into the world of HR and L&D with insights and tips that truly empower. Let's dive right into it!

What's Been on Our Minds ??

If you are an HR or L&D professional, you might recognize this scenario: you discover an incredible solution, integrate it eagerly into your company, and then... the uptake just isn't what you expected.

Well, you're not alone in this. Based on our experience at tealside, here are three actionable strategies that can help transform your initiatives into resounding successes:

• Build a Strong Communication Strategy: Simply announcing a new tool or program isn't enough. To capture attention and drive engagement, you need a robust and ongoing communication strategy. Keep the conversation alive and your team informed and excited.

• Integrate Learning into Employee Goals: Learning is often seen as optional rather than essential. But you know the skill gap is real, and voluntary participation might not cut it. How about weaving learning into the fabric of your employees' individual goals? When personal advancement aligns with learning, motivation naturally skyrockets.

• Start Small, Then Scale: Launching a major initiative in one go can be daunting and is often met with resistance due to the sheer scale of change. Instead, start with a pilot program, gather insights, celebrate those early wins, and then expand gradually. This step-by-step approach can help mitigate fear and build confidence in your vision.

Spotlight on New Learning Journeys ??

We are thrilled to unveil our new series on Leadership Development, designed with a clear and focused goal: to forge a path for emerging leaders through simple yet profound leadership journeys.

Our aim? To make leadership development more accessible than ever.

Introducing: The Manager Essentials?

• Manager Essential 1—My Leadership Profile: The Manager Essentials Series is designed to help new and growing leaders become the leaders they want to be. The first part, "My Leadership Profile," encourages participants to look at their own experiences and leadership styles. They'll reflect on what leadership means to them, figure out their personal "Why" and come up with their own way of leading others effectively.
