The sixth in our series of sample templates of Training Needs Analysis templates – this one for looking at management and leadership skills.

TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT – For  Management And Leadership

Introduction

An organization is basically constructed for a purpose. Business is (usually) to make profit; education is to touch the heart and teach the minds of its students, health care is to take care of the wellness of its patients, etc. These organizations comprise human resources that work on the fulfillment of its purpose. The attainment of the vision and mission of any organization depends on the direction of its leaders. Managing the organization’s business and leading its people would be a difficult task to an un-prepared individual assigned to be, as they say, “captain of the ship”. The purpose of this TNA is to make an analysis of your competency as managers and leaders/supervisors of your respective departments.

This is to help you nourish your strengths, improve your limitations and bring out your potentials.
