What has made them the successful leaders they are today?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While their years of experience certainly help, proper training can give new hires a leg up and put them on the path to success. Training new team members to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trainingmag.com\/employee-effectiveness-vs-productivity\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">not just be productive but also <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">effective<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in their roles can lead to better outcomes for individuals and the nonprofit as a whole. Explore these tips for upgrading your training program and transforming new hires into potential leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Tailor training to each team member\u2019s needs.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not everyone learns the same way or needs the same training. While you should find a balance between generalized training and a different training program for each team member, here are some strategies you can implement to personalize the training process:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Issue self-assessments. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No one knows what you\u2019re capable of better than yourself. By issuing self-assessments to new hires, you can gain a better understanding of their prior knowledge and learning styles. That way, you can analyze what content you\u2019ll need to include in training and how to adapt your training materials to different formats to serve various learning styles, such as visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and interpersonal.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Consider prior experience. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While individuals know their strengths best, your team knows its <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">work<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> best. Review each new hire\u2019s job history to identify skills that overlap with their new roles. Then, ensure your training program covers any skill gaps.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Develop specialized training for different roles. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you may receive general training for organization-wide operations, other roles will require specialized training. Break new hires into separate groups by department, such as fundraising, programming, and volunteer management, so that they can learn more about their specific roles in depth.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Along the way, check in with new hires to ensure training suits their needs. For instance, you may find that one of your new hires used the same project management system at their previous organization, allowing them to skip that part of the training to expedite the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Create an interactive training experience.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making training more interactive creates a more memorable experience that helps new hires retain the training material. Additionally, hands-on training is more engaging, providing new hires with a positive first impression of your nonprofit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may make your training program more interactive by:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Implementing roleplaying exercises. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mimicking real-world scenarios can help new hires apply what they\u2019ve learned in a low-stakes setting. For example, let\u2019s say you\u2019d like new hires to practice <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bloomerang.co\/blog\/donor-stewardship\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">donor stewardship techniques<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can create fake donor personas and stage phone calls with these donors, allowing new hires to learn what makes an effective donor thank-you call through hands-on experience.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Putting team members in donors\u2019 shoes. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conversely, acquainting new hires with the donor perspective can help them approach their roles with a deeper understanding of the people they\u2019re serving. For instance, you may have new hires <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/donation-pages\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">navigate your donation page<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so they understand exactly what donors experience and can assist them in troubleshooting during the donation process.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Hosting peer-to-peer learning sessions. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve heard of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/peer-to-peer-fundraising\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">peer-to-peer campaigns<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but what about peer-to-peer learning? Have new hires come together to reflect on what they\u2019ve learned and offer any insights that might help their fellow team members succeed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interactive training elements also help to break the ice among new hires and build camaraderie. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/workplace\/397058\/increasing-importance-best-friend-work.aspx\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A study by Gallup<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> revealed that having a close friend at work increases employees&#8217; likelihood of recommending their employer, staying with their current organization, and being satisfied with their workplace. Therefore, please encourage them to get to know each other throughout the training process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Ensure team members can effectively use relevant tools.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By the end of the training process, new hires should be familiar with the tools they\u2019ll need to use regularly and how to leverage them effectively. Build an understanding of your top tools and resources by:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Hosting technology workshops. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lead sessions demonstrating how to use tools in your tech stack, like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trainingmag.com\/how-can-modern-businesses-build-greater-trust-with-ai-driven-platforms\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">artificial intelligence (AI) platforms<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, your constituent relationship management system (CRM), fundraising tools, and marketing software.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Highlighting unique features. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you should familiarize new hires with the basics of each platform, don\u2019t forget to point out the special features that can add greater value or save time. For example, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bloomerang.co\/blog\/nonprofit-crm\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bloomerang\u2019s nonprofit CRM guide<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> explains that top platforms will have features like supporter timelines that allow you to dive deeper into each donor\u2019s engagement history with your organization.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Reviewing cybersecurity best practices. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping donor data safe should be a top priority. Help new hires uphold cybersecurity by teaching them how to create effective passwords, use multi-factor authentication, and enable data encryption.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of the training process, consider testing new hires\u2019 knowledge by giving them tasks to complete within your different systems and evaluating their execution. For example, you may instruct them to add a new record to your CRM or automate an email campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Develop leadership skills.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fostering a positive <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trainingmag.com\/is-kiss-up-kick-down-your-organizations-default-leadership-culture\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">leadership culture<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> starts with instilling leadership skills from the onset. Help new hires build their leadership capabilities and envision a future at your organization by:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Creating a mentorship program. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pairing new hires with mentors can help them learn from organization leaders, ease into their roles, and hone their skills. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trainingmag.com\/training-apex-awards-best-practice-bell-and-howells-new-hire-mentorship-program\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bell and Howell\u2019s new hire mentorship program<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> found that \u201cMentees have demonstrated improved confidence and faster skill acquisition, reducing their onboarding time by 20 percent. Additionally, 85 percent of new hires report higher satisfaction with the mentorship experience compared to previous onboarding processes.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Offering leadership coaching sessions. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition to one-on-one mentoring, nonprofit leaders can offer advice on broader topics such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/bloomerang.co\/blog\/nonprofit-strategic-planning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">strategic planning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, decision-making, and conflict resolution within the workplace. Allow new hires to ask questions to get the most out of these sessions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Making promotion requirements transparent. Inform new hires of the tasks they must complete to advance<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0to the next level upfront. That way, they can focus on building the necessary skills and preparing themselves to advance.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider offering other leadership skill-building opportunities throughout employees\u2019 time at your organization, such as a book club featuring leadership-related titles or monthly webinars featuring different organizational leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Encourage a learning-oriented culture.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employees should never stop learning and growing during their tenure at your nonprofit. Instill a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/trainingmag.com\/creating-a-culture-of-continuous-improvement-in-the-workplace\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">culture of continuous improvement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and innovation by implementing the following strategies:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Discuss industry-relevant news. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep employees informed about news and trends affecting their work and the industry at large. For instance, you may assign a different team member each week to compile and present the top three most relevant news stories to the rest of the team.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Support external learning opportunities. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encourage employees to take advantage of other learning opportunities. Provide stipends or free access to online courses, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nxunite.com\/nonprofit-conferences\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">conferences<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, or certification programs that can help team members expand their knowledge.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Recognize employees who prioritize learning. Demonstrate your organization&#8217;s commitment to learning by publicly acknowledging employees who complete various<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0training programs or attend conferences. You may also reward this drive for knowledge with increased pay or bonuses.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learning opportunities are also a strong employee retention tool. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/councils\/forbesbusinesscouncil\/2022\/11\/11\/why-and-how-to-center-a-workplace-culture-around-learning-and-development\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ninety-four percent of employees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> claim they would remain at a company if it invested in helping them learn, so developing this type of company culture can help you attract and retain top talent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While these tips will help you provide a more enriching and meaningful training experience, every new hire and organization is different. Throughout the process, gather feedback from new hires and staff to determine what is working well and what needs to be changed to improve your program.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Training new hires to be effective team members can be challenging.
