Going Beyond Product Knowledge
How to train young talent on your company practices and policies.
Whenever a new generation enters the work force, it brings a new set of strengths and weaknesses. As Generation Y, also known as Millennials, individuals born between 1980 and 2000, are hired, what talents and challenges do they bring? The MHEDA Journal surveyed nine distributors around North America to find out how they are recruiting and training young employees in their company. How do companies incorporate these individuals’ strengths and improve their weaknesses? When product training is said and done, how do MHEDA distributors incorporate a new generation with unique skills and values into their company culture? Among the methods that have proven effective are job shadowing and mentoring programs. Following are examples of ways distributors are able to recruit and integrate young talent into their companies and cultures.
