HRM FPX 5025 Assessment 3 Hiring and Training Forecast Plan
For employees promoted from skilled workers to shift lead supervisors, CapraTek should consider leadership training and development, as these individuals may lack prior leadership experience (Roupnel, Rinfre, & Grenier, 2019). Leadership development programs provide the necessary knowledge and soft skills to prepare individuals for their roles. CapraTek should identify potential candidates for leadership positions early and begin preparing them for these roles. Leadership training can take various forms, such as coaching, mentoring, and action learning (Roupnel et al., 2019). CapraTek may choose to implement a mentoring approach, allowing candidates to learn by interacting with and observing leaders within the organization.
Placing candidates under the mentorship of experienced shift supervisors can be particularly effective. Mentorship has been shown to work well in organizational development, as it helps mentees gain confidence, develop focus on objectives, and enhance career and network development. Additionally, mentorship is a cost-effective option for CapraTek, allowing the company to allocate funds for new hires. Using technology can also help CapraTek consider minority populations according to their numbers to ensure compliance with equal employment opportunities.
