Ladder of Learning Leadership Skills Management Skills Interpersonal Skills Personal Skills

HR Outsource has developed a learning approach, which includes its Ladder of Learning for development of people and organisations.

Each rung of the ladder consists of a number of accredited and aligned training interventions which should be mastered over time for the full development and learning of the individual.

On the bottom rung of the ladder is the Personal Skills set of Training interventions which must be developed and mastered before one can develop and grow to master Interpersonal Skills

Once the interpersonal skill too has been mastered, together with sound technical skills which are applied in our client organisation, the employee with the right potential should be considered for development to grow into a managerial position.  Such employees often require HR Outsource's Management Skills set of training programmes as s/he progresses up the organisational ladder.

Having now mastered all levels of personal, interpersonal and management training and practice, the next strategic challenge is to develop solid Leadership Skills and change management skills for our managers and leaders to grow, direct and redirect the organisation toward success.  Here our Leadership Sills rung of the ladder developed through a number of introspective and developmental programmes pitched at growing the to leaders or organisations to achieve their full potential as well as that of the organisations that they represent.

HR Outsource's proven change methodology is at the centre of our approach to change. Supporting our methodology, are over forty HR Outsource tools for use in the implementation of any type of change.

While we certainly do provide direct strategy and implementation consulting services to clients, we also can train and partner selected client change targets.

 Four main target groups have been identified.  These include:

HR Outsource differs from its competition and most larger accounting / technology consulting firms, in that we do transfer skills, methodology and tools to our clients to manage change during and post the change event.

Our highly skilled and experienced local team of South African and internal professionals understand how change affects human behaviour and how individuals react to change.  Our focus is on maximizing our clients' investment in their people and ROI, and minimizing the risks associated with change by balancing the business needs and realities with the concerns and issues that people may have.

 We have had a wide range of change experience and a proven track record in various types of organisational change projects.

Performance Management

What is Performance Management?

A formal management process for harnessing, directing, evaluating, measuring and rewarding human effort, competence and talent in realising an organisation's vision, mission and objectives.

HR Outsource philosophy is illustrated below in a simplistic image:

Principles that underlie Performance Management:

• Agreed framework of planned goals, standards and competence requirements (agreement between manager and individual on expectations)
• Process (not just a systems of forms and procedures) it is the ACTIONS people take to achieve the delivery of results
• Shared understanding (individuals need to have a shared understanding about high level plans and what organisational objectives they are working towards
• Approach to managing and developing people (how employees work together and develop their skills and knowledge)
• Geared towards achievement (it is about job related success for the individuals so they can make the best use of their abilities)
• The process owned and driven by line managers

Advantages and Benefits of Performance Management
