Abstract
This project will focus on the importance of associate training, development, recognition
and involvement within an organization. Initially, the associate involvement and
developmental tools currently being utilized at Rexam Closures and Containers will be
examined. Once this assessment has been completed, the developmental needs of the
current workforce will be examined in order to determine what areas are not being
addressed and to gage effectiveness of the existing processes and programs. New tools
will then be developed while current tools are redefined in order to meet the demands of
the associate base. Actions will then be taken to gain support from management and
develop implementation procedures in order to implement the new tools and filter them
throughout the organization successfully. This step will involve detailed communication
to the management team and the development of smaller focus groups to drive the
programs throughout the departments, shifts, individual facilities and the organization as
a whole. After implementation takes place, there will be ongoing evaluation to ensure
that the desired results are being achieved. As the associate population changes, updates
and revisions will be made in order to improve performance. These follow-up actions
will be developed and performed by Human Resources and management team members
throughout the organization.
