TLG can find the right program for you. We conduct a Skills Needs Assessment, and evaluate the skills needed in the position and the skills gaps in the employees. TLG would develop and deliver a tailormade program to give the employees the skills they need to do the job better and become more valued employees.

Organizational Needs Assessment

Looking for improvements in productivity, employee retention and workplace safety?

An Organizational Needs Assessment or ONA can solve common workplace issues such as:

High staff turnover
High absenteeism
Low motivation and/or productivity
Employees who resist change
On-the-job accidents
Difficulty meeting your business goals

An ONA examines the Skills for Success levels in the workplace. You can use the ONA to examine these skills of your organization as a whole or to assess specific department(s) (e.g. Accounting) or groups of employees (e.g. all entry-level positions). After, we create a report of findings and recommendations.

After the assessment, recommendations are made and TLG can even mentor staff into how to use clear language in their day to day communication. The option of editing documents is also available.
