Management Training:
Career Management Training – Do You Need It?

If you're in a leadership or management role you must think in terms of some type of career management training if you have any chance of being successful!

I've talked with some in the past that continued to complain that they just didn't have enough time to spend in management training. They said that their work day was just too busy with all the duties being piled on them to step away to learn something new.

Foolishness, I thought to myself.

Before I tell you a personal story, let me give you an analysis of that statement.

You have a man digging post holes by hand. He is down on the ground scooping out handfuls of dirt one at a time as the job of digging the post hole seems endless. His fingers and knuckles are growing more and more abused and painful. Another man comes along and mentions to the man digging that there is a new course out on digging post holes, and he should consider going.

The man stops digging for a moment and looks at the man telling him to attend yet another training class on digging post holes. He glares at the man interrupting him. He then tells the man that there is only one way to dig a post hole and that is to remove the dirt one handful at a time deep enough so that a post can be placed into it. If I keep talking with you I will never get this post hole dug. After all, I must dig hundreds of these. Now leave me alone.

At the course the instructor introduces a new way of digging post holes. He holds up a shovel! In addition, he tells them that there is even talk of a more advanced way of digging post holes that could revolutionize the art of post hole digging. He mentions that although it is still in the testing stages, but they have begun using augers that can dig a post hole in seconds! Everyone applauds.

Several years ago I went to a career management course and learned some amazing new techniques and ideas to manage and lead my staff. Ideas that if applied correctly could help to increase morale, productivity, and most of all reduce the stress in my life.

It covered a number of things from motivation to time management. I was amazed when I finished how much better I was able to approach employee issues, as well as, manage my daily schedule so that I could fit in the most important things and push the unimportant to the side or off the table. Just the way I was communicating to my staff in the past was improved upon.

I was so excited I went back and began telling the fellow management team about the course. I can still remember one of them specifically telling me that she wished that she had the time to attend training. She was much too busy to take time away from the work area to waste time going to training. I must not have enough to do, she said.

It wasn't a year later that she was let go and I not only led my department but I was also placed in charge of hers as well. Funny thing was that I was able to do both very easily using not only the things I learned at that training session, but all the others I continued to attend. This included correspondence course on my own and books that I read.

You see if you are serious about leadership and management, you must seek sound career management training. If you don't it is like driving a car and never changing the oil or putting gas into it.

Good luck and seek out some good career management training.
