All our blog posts have been pretty serious and formalish to date. We thought why not add a punch of humor for a change. As humans, we are emotional creatures and its good to have a mix of both humor and seriousness in our sanity mix in order to understand the issue.
The topic “why you shouldn’t eat skills development in India” is actually a humor based take on the ever growing problem of lack of skilled manpower in our industries. So here are some of the reasons why you should not be eating your own skills development programs.
Drive Innovation
Number one reason that you cannot ignore skills development for your industry is that unskilled workers will never be able to be innovative. They would fail to innovate as they are not masters of their game. They are still understanding the things. We all know without innovation survival is a bit hard in modern business.
Lining up Skills with Needs
Until unless you give due attention to skills development, you wouldn’t really know what you need and how your existing skills sets are living up to the expectations of the competition. It pays to do your homework everywhere. So start early on your skills development program and stay above your competition.
Higher Skills: Higher Wages
Now being a businessman you know that higher skills will incur higher wages. So what? Higher skills will also mean boosted productivity and a better product which can always pick up some good prices in the market.
Focused Resources
If you a skilled workforce, then that means that they are focused on their work. That’s what skills mean right. Higher skills mean that the workforce is less emotional and more rational when it comes to being productive. This kind of workforce will also be saving on resources, enabling the industry to have a more focused resource allocation which would, in turn, boost the overall productivity of the setup.
Creating New Jobs
Last but not the least, you as an industry running a skills development program, not only boosts your business but also caters for creating meaningful employment for the masses. It is not necessary that a person trained by you will remain in the company forever. Even if they move on to another employer, they would still be an asset to the entire Industry.
