Matt Oldroyd’s Post

A number of years ago, I was talking with my team about training. Someone asked the common question, “What if we train our people and they leave?” Followed by, “What if we don’t train them and they stay?” That has always stuck with me. The internal “people” processes we have implemented are all designed to do one thing: to help our people grow and develop so they can be their best every day. The fluid power industry continues to evolve because of the talented individuals who share their knowledge with the rising generation. One of the ways we encourage this knowledge sharing is through our Hands-On Training (HOT) Schools. Our trainers travel across the country, putting on three-day seminars where attendees get to learn from the experts. Helping people experience practical, hands-on training that they can apply every day is an invaluable development opportunity. This is a simple way to invest in your team and help them to keep the industry moving forward. https://lnkd.in/gcqwyMhe
