Make Behaviors Stick

The Silega Traning Process is a time-proven system that guarantees effective training using the following 12 steps:

1. Needs and gap analysis - On the first encounter with your organization, our team will help you analyze current performance issues and how they impact the business as well as define potential areas for growth. Pre-workshop online questionnaires can be used as well.

2. Set expectations and define outcomes - This stage includes meeting the customer and defining crystal-clear objectives for the learning intervention. Objectives can be linked to performance both on an individual and organizational level.

3. Benchmark (current state) - Silega can measure the current performance levels of your organization, skills, and behaviors and compare them with improvements after the training.

4. Senior management engagement - Our team will actively involve your senior management in the design and delivery of the learning program.

5. Training fine-tuning - Silega customizes its programs to fit your specific organizational culture. The customization is done on various levels:

• Culture (role models, language, symbols, images, and relevance)

• Content (examples, relevance, case studies, terminology, and depth)

6. Engagement of participants prior to the training - Silega engages participants prior to training by creating awareness and cultivating excitement about the session.

7. Action plan creation - Silega works with the customer to create an action plan for conducting the training with excellence. This includes project stages, timelines, roles, and responsibilities. Specific commitments can also be tracked using our online system.

8. Logistics - Our team will support you with detailed checklists to guarantee that everything needed for the training will be available on site on the day of the session.

9. Training - The training session is conducted using the principles of experiential learning. Silega ensures that participants are fully engaged, group dynamics are smoothly managed, and learning makes business sense.

10. Transfer of training - The ultimate goal of training is enhancing performance. Silega offers solutions that increase the degree to which participants successfully apply skills gained in the training room to their jobs. These include tools and job aids, additional training sessions, telephone or live coaching, advice to managers, and e-learning through our training transfer system called Silega Lattitude™.

11. Benchmark (before and after comparison) - As an option, Silega can evaluate the effect of training by comparing your company performance levels before and after the session. Another option is using Silega’s Training ROI Audit™ to help you quantify the advances achieved.

12. Report - Silega can provide you with a detailed report about group attitudes, conclusions reached during the training, the facilitator’s observations, and an action plan after the training. Some of our programs include measurement tools which provide even greater reporting reliability.
