Training and Communications

At Switch HR we believe “training” is just one form of what we call Strategic Communications.  Training without application, without reinforcement and without follow-up is a waste of time.  That’s why, for example,  our training materials and employee performance management systems are integrally linked.   Furthermore, knowlege sharing efforts across the enterprise are often limited to a single e-mail announcement or one-and-done policy document posted online and a hardcopy slipped into an overstuffed binder that no one reads.  Amazing how we send a message once, document it in a remote place  and then believe the new information is fully assimilated and completely understood by all.   A framed Mission Statement on the wall does not cause engagment or commitment.  A handbook full of rules and compliance jargon does not make people do the right thing or protect your employees from harrassment. OSHA-compliant policy statements do not make your facilities safe.  You get the picture.

Our Corporate Communications products range from business cards and paperstock to high-quality videos and complete web sites.  Switch HR also offers a full array of Strategic Communication products to support your employee development and knowlege sharing efforts.  These include:
