Every organization that has implemented a process improvement methodology or methodologies is faced with the dilemma of how to train new employees in such a way that they fully understand the organization and its approach to Continuous Process Improvement (CPI). You are seeking to provide an overview of your Continuous Process Improvement program and how it ties to your strategic business plan. Once an employee has been hired by an organization that understanding needs to be communicated as soon as it is practical. This article discusses strategies and methods that could be employed to accomplish this monumental task. In addition, since there are many topics that new employees are trained on, this article only focuses on the process improvement portion.

The focus of current study is to understand the affect of Training and Development, On the Job Training, Training Design and Delivery style on Organizational performance. The back bone of this study is the secondary data comprised of comprehensive literature review.

Adoption of agile development methods have increased in popularity over recent years.
Agile seeks “early and continuous delivery” of software, promote requests for changes, requires daily collaboration between business people and developers, increases simplicity, values an iterative approach, and preaches constant communication among all involved in a project.
However, many companies have faced following challenges,
Effective coordinating multiple teams
Implementation of system features and non-functional requirements.
The human factor is a well-recognized issue in organizational information security management; however, there is a tendency to equate the human factor with insider threat of end users. It is critical to take a holistic view, examining the roles of three groups of people: end users, information security professionals and top executives. Each group plays an important role in organizational information security management. Top executives should take the leadership role in envisioning an optimal security strategy, security professionals should be able to execute the security strategy and end users must participate in security management processes. All three groups are accountable for information security.
Data is causing a revolution in businesses and this has been brought about by realizing the potential of effectively analyzing the data that is available to us.

Managers are busy people. They often have large teams of direct reports to evaluate, observe, answer questions from and report on – not to mention their other job responsibilities. One-on-one coaching often falls by the wayside, yet it’s a hugely important tool for managers to use to engage and retain employees and even to improve organizational performance. How can managers make the most of the time they have to provide the most effective coaching and feedback to their employees?
Two forms of Health Check are offered the Silver Appraisal (SCAMPI B) and Gold Appraisal (SCAMPI A).
Both are led by a Certified CMMI® Lead Appraiser supported by trained Appraisal Team Members.
The primary difference between the two types of Health Check is the level of rigor and the fact that the SCAMPI A Appraisal can provide a Capability Level for each of the PMO Process Area in scope, the results can also be published on the CMMI® Institute PARS Site (Published Appraisal Results) if required.
The key deliverable being a report highlighting strengths and opportunities for improvement. This can optionally be expanded into a comprehensive PMO Improvement Plan the implementation of which can be supported by DEMIX Consultants if required.
If your PMO is not adding the value you expected then perform a DEMIX PMO Health Check to find out why!
