Not everyone is made with what it takes to train new hires. An extension of patience and understanding of the work is a must. So you would think that the person you are having doing the training would be good at it? No, that is not always the way it would turn out. Even though the person may have done every job that it takes to run your company and the person does it wonderfully, so much so that you wish you could clone them. But just because they have the knowledge of every job that is done does not mean they are capable of doing the training. Now, how would I know all of this.
That is an easy one to answer, I am speaking from experience. I am the person that you would never ever want to hire to do your training. I am the type of person that believes if I can do this then everyone else should be able to do it “just like me”. For instance I type some where around 100 wpm. And if I can do it why can't you? Unfortunately that is not my only fall back. If you do not do it as fast as I can, then I have the bad happen of trying to take over and finish if for you! When you are training someone, that is just not the thing to do! So if you happen to see a woman with gray hair heading into your company to be a trainer, be sure to ask if it is me!!!
