Training cycle
Performance Reviews Instead of waiting months for formal review from their manager, people have begun to ask their peers for continual feedback. Using social software, peers now ask other peers to help them learn how to improve right away. Think of it as a virtual (and selfprescribed) 360 performance evaluation
Mentoring (even after the mentors leave) Many companies have started private YouTube-like channels on their internal intranet to help mentor and reverse-mentor employees. With in-house videos, employees planning to retire create videos about their areas of expertise. A senior executive creates mentoring videos and gives advice to newcomers. A technical employee creates a step-by-step video to explain a procedure (great for all those Train-the-Trainer programs out there). Employee Orientation Many companies have gone the route of creating their own, in-house social network specifically for their employees to get to know one another. New hires can easily find five people who went to the same college they did, three who worked for the same company, and two who grew up in their small town. Whenever someone with a similar history joins the organization, he or she gets an alert of all the other people with that similar history. With the ability to make these kinds of connections, cold and impersonal first days quickly turn warm and welcoming.
Project Management Companies have started to use the free tool of wiki to create both private and public wikipages that employees can constantly update. Wiki (Hawaiian for quick) allows a group to make changes to a shared web page. Wikipedia is the largest wiki in the world; however many companies use smaller wikis to keep conversation and projects constantly discussed. On-the-Job Training or Field Training (Also known as Train-the-Trainer programs) By equipping technicians and potential trainers within the organization with a media mindset and a culture of collaboration, everyone can begin to share responsibility for educating one another and giving each person an opportunity to seek focused help. The workforce becomes the organizations lifeline to whats happening in the field right now. Yes, you will still need classes to teach people how to properly instruct (or how to use the media), but field training will begin to happen organically and minute-by-minute
CONCLUSION
The role of HR management becomes extremely important in an industry as dynamic as the media industry.
