Today kicks off Learning at Work Week, and I want to talk a bit about the importance of offering upskilling opportunities to employees. By providing upskilling resources to your employees, you empower your team to master new technologies, methodologies, and best practices, ensuring your organization remains competitive. Not only does upskilling help them in their career journey, but it also helps your business thrive. After all, it can be difficult for hiring managers to fill in certain skill gaps. Instead of waiting around for someone with every technical skill you need, you can always provide them with opportunities to learn and develop those skills. It's also important to note that upskilling employees doesn't just improve their technical skills—it can also boost employee engagement and productivity. This positive environment fosters a culture of continuous improvement and innovation. #LearningAtWorkWeek #EmployeeUpskilling #ContinuousLearning

Embracing Learning at Work Week: The Joy of Seeing the Lightbulb Moment! One of the most rewarding aspects of my HR Partner role is witnessing the "lightbulb moment" – that instant when a complex concept suddenly clicks, and you can see the understanding dawn in someone's eyes. It's a powerful reminder of why continuous learning is so vital in the workplace. When I train managers on HR topics, whether it's navigating employment laws, understanding the intricacies of performance management, or mastering the art of effective change management, I create an engaging and interactive environment. It's not just about transferring knowledge but about inspiring confidence and competence. These sessions are always practical and relevant, focusing on real-world applications that managers can immediately implement. Seeing them leave a training session with newfound insights and the enthusiasm to apply what they've learned is incredibly fulfilling. Learning at Work Week is the perfect opportunity to celebrate these moments and to recognise the value of continuous professional development. It's a chance to reaffirm a commitment to creating a culture where learning is not just encouraged but is an integral part of our daily work lives. #learningatworkweek #hrdelivered #lovelearning #HR
