In doesn’t matter if it’s managerial or technical, with the next decade’s shortage of labor and fast-paced change, quality training is going to be an absolute must if you want to maximize your productivity and people.

Having production-line staff that have a “full understanding” of heat-treating operations and know how each element of production is connected is important to minimize micromanagement and error rates and maximize productivity. More important than that is having managers with the skillsets necessary to build and lead high-performing teams.

Understand this – employees are leaving their bosses, not their companies. A lack of technical training and supervisors with no managerial skills will plague any company that lacks proper training.
