Five years ago, Ed Betof, vice president of talent management and chief learning officer for Becton, Dickinson and Co. (BD), a medical technology firm headquartered in Franklin Lakes, N.J., arrived in his office with 30 boxes of training books and a charter from his CEO to create a corporate university.
Faced with the prospect of developing this learning organization from the ground up for 25,000 employees worldwide, Betof created a vision in which the bulk of the face-to-face training would be delivered by company leaders. Doing so would fill the instructor gaps quickly and cost-effectively.
"We started with a blank sheet of paper, no track record, no credibility, no momentum. We had no programming," recalls Betof. "Inch by inch, we developed programming with powerful impact."
Now, 10 months into the program, he not only has developed a dynamic learning organization, but also has seen the unintended benefits of having employees create and teach the curricula. Those benefits include increased employee morale, better talent identification, enhanced high-potential employee leadership development, improved companywide communication, higher employee retention and lowered costs.
It is important to become a teaching organization, not just a learning organization, asserts Noel Tichy, professor of organizational behavior and HR management and director of the Global Business Partnership at the University of Michigan Business School in Ann Arbor.
Having employees teach others is nothing new, but many companies, such as BD, are formalizing the process and making it the primary way in which they deliver training and develop their employees--as both teachers and students.
In Bangladesh perspective to motivate the managers we can use the techniques stated and explained by the social researchers. Motivating staff by training, self motivation, recognition, awards, incentives, incentive programs, employee satisfaction, employee reward programs, team building, employee recognition programs which will ultimately increase employee productivity. Special motivational techniques identified after looking at all the theories of motivation. These theories are applicable in the business environment of Bangladesh.
