Good employees and staff are hard to find because of many reasons including:

  • They aren't passionate about their jobs
  • They just want a paycheck
  • Companies and managers don't invest enough in their team
  • Training and instructions aren't useful and/or aren't retained
  • They don't match their job position and responsibilities 
  • Their management doesn't know how to lead
  • Management doesn't know how to communicate and instruct
  • Budget cuts have caused issues within the workplace
  • Communication and job relations need improvement
  • Work environment is not safe, either physically or emotionally
  • Employees don't feel valued

How To Get Ready To Instruct by Charles Mabra

How to Get Ready to Instruct

Teaching others how to do the job right isn't that easy. It takes time and preparation. Instructors, supervisors and leaders must be properly trained on how to get ready to instruct. 

TWI developers came up with three essential points for job instruction. By focusing on three most important steps to prepare for training and instructing others, we simplify what can be complicated. Too many processes and procedures can make things more difficult than they should be. The three points that are essential before instructing others are:

  •      Make a training timetable
  •      Prepare everything
  •      Arrange the workplace

Many supervisors often ignore these steps but it's important if you want to achieve the most effective program.

The first thing you need to do is plan the training. A training timetable allows for things to go smoothly and not be left out. Training should be done according to a plan not just by winging it. You should consider the following:

  •      What job are you training people to do?
  •      Who is being trained?
  •      When does the training need to be done?

Making a Training Table

Planning everything out guarantees that things will run well, be easy to understand and that you stay focused. It will also help you meet demands and deadlines. TWI's workbook offers a sample timetable, and an explanation of how to set it up, which serves to guide and plan out your entire training. However, since life and people are dynamic, just the workbook alone isn't enough. Well-trained and certified TWI Training Solutions Trainers give the best classroom instruction and hands-on learning. It is also proven that people learn best when being instructed by knowledgeable and experienced instructors and leaders. Also, they learn better when able to ask questions and get answers in a group setting. 

Getting Everything Ready and Arranging the Workplace

Many supervisors often don't pay attention to these two points because they're so simple and self explanatory. The most common sense things often get ignored. However, if time isn't taken to take care of these two processes, you may not be successful in your training. And your staff or employees may not understand what you are trying to teach them.

Getting everything ready means you arrange all the things you'll need when you're instructing and have them on hand. You don't want to be in the middle of teaching and not have the necessary materials. You could show that you're not prepared and this sets a poor standard. The person being trained may think that if it wasn't important enough for the trainer to bring the correct tool, then it must not be essential to use the exact tool in any certain way. A great leader leads by showing and doing; by example.

Arranging the workplace means setting up the work area neatly. It's important to have everything exactly as it would be during actual working conditions. It also must be tidy and organized because this will help set a high standard for the worker. Also, neatness will help prevent distractions caused by other material.

So if you want to instruct in the best, most efficient and effective way, learn and follow the TWI steps for getting ready to instruct. Contact us for a free consultation or to ask any questions.

How Supervisors Can Cause Employees to Lose Their Cooperation and Dedication to Their Jobs by Charles Mabra

How Supervisors Can Cause Employees to Lose Cooperation and Dedication to Their Jobs

 

Supervisors often find it hard to work with people and it's not always the fault of the employee. One of the reasons why this happens is because it's difficult to get people to be cooperative and dedicated to their job. Once employees lose interest and commitment to their jobs, it's usually hard to get them to find their motivation and passion. This can be the fault and/or choice of the team members. However, sometimes it's the supervisor's fault for the following reasons:

Unwilling to be the leader or boss

New managers and supervisors are usually not comfortable with telling people what to do because they were just “one of them”.

Unwilling to split up work

Supervisors who deal with the responsibilities they used to do often decide to continue doing the work themselves instead of delegating it and teaching others.

Not able to teach and train new workers

Whether they're new or experienced, many supervisors can't instruct or manage people who have never had a steady job before. People like this need time to adjust to an organized job with rules and discipline.

Getting over the lack of knowledge with the job

Supervisors may assign a job to the wrong person because they don't have any background or knowledge about it. This causes the workers to question the manager's judgment.

Handling work habits from different businesses

People who have worked for a different company think that everything is the same everywhere. However, when they start working for a new company, they have to adapt and learn all the new regulations. Supervisors may not know about this and may not know how to help workers adapt.

How to overcome these issues? To prevent, reduce and avoid these problems, supervisors must learn to lead people. This also means working with and through people. Training Within Industry (TWI) Training Solutions teaches managers and supervisors how to lead and train their employees. The purpose of the TWI Job Relations program is to prevent and solve these very problems.

The Key to Success is in Your Hands by Charles Mabra

Fundamentals of the TWI Program Give You The Key to Success

The fundamentals of TWI Training Solutions hands you the key to developing and carrying out standardized work and to make changes and improvements. For decades, companies such as Toyota use TWI's services to reach their business goals as they learn how to:

  • Match jobs and responsibilities with the right employees
  • Set goals 
  • Encourage communication skills
  • Insure that basic skills are in place for employees to carry out jobs

Toyota refers to these as "The Four Rules". The company considers these rules as the "DNA" of their company's production. 

Training Within Industries' three main services are: Job Instruction, Job Relations, and Job Methods Improvement. These come from the "Five Needs Model for Good Supervisors" that was developed during World War II. This defined the main things that must be fulfilled before any boss or manager can accomplish their responsibilities and job successfully. The Five Needs are:

  • Knowledge of Work
  • Knowledge of Responsibilities
  • Skill in Instructing
  • Skill in Improving Methods
  • Skill in Leading 

The first two needs deal with knowledge and the last three focus on skill. Gaining knowledge must be joined with gaining skill, which is only acquired through practice.

The Five Needs were experimented and tested in real industries during production while the war was happening. These guidelines have made teaching the three J's more effective and consistent. Be sure to contact us to learn more. 

What Are Our Clients Saying About TWI Training Solutions? by Charles Mabra

"The TWI method of training just makes sense. It’s as simple as that. How often do you train a person to do a job and know, without a doubt, they understand the steps to getting the job done, the key points that will make or break the job, and the reason why the job is done the way it is, the first time you walk away? 

In my experience it hasn’t happened very often, but then I learned the TWI method. When the TWI method of training is used, you walk away confident the job is going to be done right, knowing the individual you trained, completely understands it. '' - Sonia Parham

"TWI Training Solutions" is so common sense that it makes extreme sense. How often do we complicate things by forgetting the basic common sense stuff? This program and the things taught by certified instructors can - and should be used- in all areas of life, not only in business. It would save a lot of time, issues, money and problems from lack of communication." - Geoff B.

The Importance of A Skilled and Educated Employee

There is somewhat of an epidemic happening within the American workforce at this very moment. The dying breed: a highly skilled and properly trained employee of the manufacturing industry.* More and more employees in the United States manufacturing workforce are trained at a minimal level, leaving but a mere number of (close to) retiree-aged employees to fully understand and operate the equipment.

The issue of hiring and properly training educated individuals goes much deeper than a company or industry needing products to be made a certain way. If the number of skilled workers remains at a critically minimal level, it will hinder the U.S.’ ability to compete in a global economy. As the U.S. is somewhat of a hub for many, many different types of resources, importing/exporting of goods, etc., the issue will grow to a global scale.

The catastrophic dwindling of yesteryear’s ideal employee has become much more of a reality as time has passed. In 2010, 8,000 NAM ( National Association of Manufacturers) members conducted a survey in order to determine just how greatly the number of skilled workers has decreased. Partial reason (as to the lack of skill among workers) can be pinpointed to the 50% of current students dropping out of school. Studies have shown that only one-third of graduating students can perform at a senior high school education level, indicating the quality (or lack thereof) that the workforce will consist of in the coming decades.

Fortunately, there is still time to turn this issue around. There have been tools created in order to prevent a global panic. One of those tools is Training Within Industry. Organizations must change and think more creatively and be more innovative in regards to their morale, management and training programs. If companies choose to start from within and grow externally from there, then they will solve a lot of problems before they become problems. 

Educated workers are the key to America's success and the key to preventing a global problem. TWI Training Solutions insures that workers are armed with the tools and education they need to do their jobs properly, effectively and efficiently. This makes for a win-win situation for businesses and their employees. Learn more by contacting our team.

Job Relations Training (JR)

Job Instruction Training (JI)

Job Methods Training (JM)

Too much affliction on equipment and tools
Machines malfunctioning
Accidents within the business
Employees inattentiveness and not paying attention
The product quality isn't up to par
Deadlines aren't being met

Problems such as these aren't ever expected; however, they can't be ignored. It's important for supervisors and employees to take responsibility and be trained well enough to come up with solutions that will be effective.

Three Essential Points That Make or Break Your Work Streams by Charles Mabra

 

There are three essential points in a company that makes sure the work streams perfectly. The crucial things are expense, top quality, and manufacturing. It is necessary to make a product of high quality, on schedule, and within the spending plan. Falling behind on any one of these points can make the difference between failure and success.

It's the manager (or managers') job to handle every specific detail each minute of the work day. Occasionally, mistakes are made and things fail but this does not always mean the supervisor is careless. Sometimes there are troubles, or points, that just do not work out. Nevertheless, it's important for managers to have the know-how and capabilities to be able to repair and expect problems. Many supervisors encounter issues such as:

Damaged equipment.

Product is of poor quality

Mishaps in the job place

Perfunctory workers who could care less

Training takes too long

Machines break down

Staff members do not comply with directions

Supervisors regularly deal with battles such as these. These difficulties are never intended. Regardless, they have to be handled. The ones responsible for dealing with them are the managers. TWI assists train supervisors and administrators to be able to do what it takes to fix these difficulties or to even stop them from occurring in the first place.

These points of trouble and problems are just a few of the many areas that the TWI Training Solutions teaches. Contact us for a free consultation to learn how we can improve your business and make it grow. 

 

Three Steps of Job Instruction by Charles Mabra

Breaking Job Instructions in Three Main Steps 

There are three essential things in a business that ensures the work flows smoothly.  Learning about these three steps keeps things simple and easy to teach and learn. The three things are cost, quality, and production. It's important to make a product of good quality, on time, and within the budget. Falling behind on any of these things could make the difference between failure and success. It's the manager or supervisors job to handle every single detail each minute of the work day. Sometimes things go wrong but this doesn't mean the supervisor is irresponsible. Sometimes there are problems or things just don't work out. However, it's essential for supervisors to have the knowledge and skills to be able to fix and anticipate problems. Most managers face problems such as:

Broken equipment

The product is low quality

Accidents in the work place

Uninterested employees

Training takes too long

Machinery breaks down

Employees don't follow instructions

Supervisors regularly face struggles such as these. These challenges are never planned. However, they must be dealt with. The one responsible for taking care of them are the supervisors. TWI helps train managers and supervisors to be able to do what's needed to fix these complications or to even prevent them from occurring in the first place. 

TWI Training Solutions is the Teachers of Teachers by Charles Mabra

TWI helps teach how to get ready to instruct. Yes, teachers must be instructed on how to teach. Those who train need instructions on how to train others so that they can easily learn and retain the necessary info in order to get the job done right.

To instruct a job, it's necessary to know four things:

Break down the job

Prepare everything

Making a training timetable

Get the workplace ready

To break down a job, make a list with detailed steps of the job and list the main points in each of those steps. It's important to go through the task in your mind so that you're sure that you are teaching other employees correctly. 

Preparing everything means you have all the right tools, equipment, materials, tools, and supplies needed to complete the job. Using the wrong tools, hodgepodge materials, or forget something, sets a low standard for the person (or people) completing the task. Also, you risk undermining the authority as a supervisor. 

Your job as a supervisor or manager is to teach and train others. You want them to learn how to perform their jobs and responsibilities correctly. From the start is the best way to learn how to get something completed. In order to do this, you as the instructor or teacher, must do the best job possible in order to train. With the help of TWI, the Teachers of Teachers, we can help you and your business prepare to instruct and to train in the most common sense effective way. Contact us now to learn how we can help you become a better leader, supervisor or manager. 

Fundamentals of the TWI Program by Charles Mabra

What are the fundamentals of the long-standing, successful TWI Program? What are the most important things that make TWI the key to developing and carrying out standardized work? Companies such as Toyota use TWI's services because the historically proven methods work yet why do they work? What are the fundamentals behind this successful training program and solutions?

Here are some fundamentals of the TWI Program that withstand the test of time and can be applied to all businesses in any industry:

  • Decide which responsibilities and jobs belong to which employees
  • Set goals 
  • Encourage communication skills
  • Make sure the basic skills are in place for employees to carry out jobs

These are the top four fundamentals that make businesses grow and succeed when implementing TWI Training Solutions. Toyota refers to this list as "The Four Rules" and consider them the "DNA" of the company's production. To this day, the famous auto makers still implement TWI. 

Training Within Industries' three main services: Job Instruction, Job Relations, and Job Methods Improvement come from the "Five Needs Model for Good Supervisors" that was developed during World War II.

Because they were actually put in place during a very rough time, the "practicing" was actually real life DOING. The skills were put in place through action and have proven decade after decade and so by using the Training Within Industry methods, supervisors and managers can effectively and consistently teach the three J's.

What is TWI? by Charles Mabra

What is TWI or Training Within Industry?

During World War II, changes had to be made to meet all the needs and demands. Production was increasing and emergency groups were formed by the government which is how Training Within Industry was created. TWI called for a whole new purpose of the people and the way they were trained in industry. TWI's goal was to find out what they could do to make people more useful and productive. The staff and leaders soon came up with the three "J" programs which make up Training Within Industry's methods:

Job Relations Training (JR)

Job Instruction Training (JI)

Job Methods Training (JM)

People in an industry were trained by TWI and then would, in turn, train other people. This reduced training time and only required a minimum number of qualified trainers. TWI's service played an essential war in helping the war effort. 

Training Within Industry is even used to help businesses today to teach employees valuable lessons without wasting time by breaking down jobs and helping people master their work. Many managers and supervisors struggle with quality, cost, and production problems such as:
Too much affliction on equipment and tools
Machines malfunctioning
Accidents within the business
Employees inattentive

Tried and True, TWI works. by Charles Mabra

 

Since World War II, TWI Proves That It Works

Training Within Industry has shown that it works in helping businesses grow and be more productive. TWI helps to simply and minimize processes that are complicated, costly and hard to understand. One example of success by implementing TWI is listed below:

In the early 1940s a company that was equipped with the proper tools needed to manufacture lenses would have to wait nearly five years as that is how much time it took for an average person to learn and master the art and sciences behind making lenses. However, by implementing Training Within Industries' methods, that lengthy number of years was reduced to around 4-6 months from start to finish.  As this company kept using the common sense methods which simplified and organized the way it trained its staff, the training time eventually decreased to six weeks. From five years to six weeks! That's definitely a huge improvement and shows that TWI works.

 

 

So how did this happen? There were no changes made in equipment, the companies, or even the employees. The workforce even remained the same. The only major change was the way the companies trained (or re-trained for that matter) their employees. Training Within industry and TWI Solutions can do for your business what it did for lens makers and countless other companies in nearly every industry. TWI had a monumental effect on changing the way organizations in the United States trained their employees. And it still does so today.

TWI took the 5 year time requirement and threw it out the window to set a new standard for productivity. 

Just like it has done for so many other businesses, the program can transform your business into what it should be. Through hands-on training and concentrated classroom instruction by Certified TWI Trainers and Instructors, your supervisors and managers will be equipped with all the tools needed. 

Your company's supervisors, managers, leaders, trainers and employees will acquire the ability of critical thinking. They will also develop a sense of accountability to raise the bar of previous job performance standards. They will want to do the best job for the company as they will have a sense of pride and individual accountability. When employees possess this, they care about the company and they want to work as a team in order to gain success. They see the whole picture of the business's goals and they feel appreciated and valued. 

This is only a small facet of the positive changes that implementing TWI will bring. These are cost effective and long lasting changes that will prove to be the best thing you've ever done to try improve your business.

TWI Training Methods by Charles Mabra

 

TWI Training methods

What makes TWI different from other training methods?

Maybe you're familiar with the term Training Within Industry and are starting to understand a little about what exactly TWI Solutions does but you still have questions as to what makes TWI better than other industry training programs.

training.jpg

 

You may know that TWI was developed during WWII with the help of the best from government, private industry, and academia but the ideas that went into  the program are profoundly simple and easy to understand and highly effective. The Training Within Industry program was created with a sense of urgency because of the constraints of WWII with the war being referred to in the TWI report as 'an emergency'.

The developers of TWI came up with four essential requirements to turn the three facets of TWI (existing knowledge, new ideas, and thorough testing) into workable programs.

The four essential requirements were as follows:

1. The programs must be simple

2. The programs must be prepared using a minimum amount of presentation time

3. The programs must be built on the principle of demonstration or "learning by doing"

4. The program should provide a "multiplier effect" so that a group of employees who have been trained can also, in turn, train other employees.

These ideas laid out the basic foundation for the TWI program and resulted in a basic yet condensed training program without the the use of extraneous text or training. Every aspect of the program was developed to train workers effectively and efficiently. 

These methods work for every industry, including yours! Blue collar or white collar, the program will result in improvements anywhere that someone does a job. This means that you can achieve the same cost efficiency and productivity by implementing TWI Solutions. If you're tired of falling behind or maybe just not getting ahead. 

TWI Solutions is here to help you not only fight but to win your business battle.
