the task and what was should be done by using two methods, critical incident technique and job
inventory questionnaire. Using the critical incident technique we would choose one of the best
flight attendants to record good and poor behaviors that he/she have seen during a period of time,
describe each incident, and suggest why the behavior was effective or ineffective. This would
help us understand the causes of both effective and ineffective performance. Using the job
inventory questionnaire we would develop a questionnaire asking the flight attendants about the
job tasks, then we would give the list to the supervisors to evaluate each task in terms of its
importance and the time spent acting. Also we would ask the supervisors to identify the require
(KSAOs) to do each task perfectly.
Step #3- Identifying the (KSAOs) needs to do the job: we already know the necessary
(KSAOs) to do the job efficiently by asking the supervisors as mentioned in step #2, but we
would ask some experts and review some relevant literature just for more sureness.
All this information would be studied, evaluated, and connect with the information that has been
reached via need assessment process and based on the result we would design appropriate
training program that emphasized exceptional customers services. To guarantee that the
questionnaire would reach the customers we would place it in the airlines website, send it to the
customers via emails, and provide it as a hard copy in the plane.
As training managers we believe that customers satisfaction is very important, because
any lack in customer service can cause significant financial lasses or destruction the
organization. As an airline our reputation is very important among our customers. So we worked
hard to train flight attendants at the airline in order to make them qualified and able to provide
the highest level of customer service. So we would recommend two types of training for the
flight attendants to reach the exceptional service to our customers (1) intensive theoretical
training and (2) practical training. The intensive theoretical training would include courses and
training programs which provide the trainees with:
To address this situation the Learning and development group at Rockwell Collin decided to
offer more training to greater numbers of employees by using outside training vendors and
changing the training methods.
Any lack in one of these three points while writing the training objectives would cause
confusion, to avoid that we will use the right words and let the supervisor review the objectives
to insure that they are pretty clear.
After the completion of the formulation of training objectives we would select the
appropriate instructor to provide the training program. The internal programs that related to the
company will be provided by the companys trainers in order to preserve company's privacy
and property. Other programs will be provided by external trainers which can help the companys
trainers to gain more experience and sophistication. Later, the programs designers at the
company will transform the training objectives into an enforceable training program by develop
a lesson plan. That would help us determine the training content, methods, techniques, and
materials. According to Gilley and Eggland our lesson plan will identify the following: (1)
determine the types and level of KSAOs that needed to achieve the organizational goals
make the organization's environment conducive to learning
provide the necessary resources to conduct a program design
Find and offer access to off-the-job and on-the-job learning resources
Provide individual help and feedback on individual performance
Serve as role models and mentors to trainees and the organization
Consider the individual learning styles, abilities, and work and life circumstances
In other words, to ensure the success of the design processes, they should be applied in
conjunction with aforementioned responsibilities.
In general, our suggestions concerning who should provide the training would be the
internal trainers responsible for providing training programs that related to the
company's privacy and property in order to save the confidentiality of information and
companys plans. External trainers are responsible for providing training programs on common
issues, or general matters, or on subjects that the internal trainers havent had sufficient
experience to provide them such us designing and implementing. We have twelve trainers only at
the main branch that have subject matter expertise but lack in designing and delivering the
Also we will take into account selecting appropriate time to submit the recommendations. In
other words, we will try to avoid the peak work hours in order to ensure that there is sufficient
time for the top management to see and study the recommendations. Such issues take a long
time somewhat to reflect and make appropriate decisions. After that we will select the
suitable time to provide the presentation. The presentation will assist us to explain and clarify all
the aspects and dimensions of the recommendations in order to remove any ambiguity or
vagueness and answer the questions.
