[Sustain] [OR] [P3-S3] Building Operational Resilience: Your Guide to Training and Awareness

• Identify the key stakeholders and their roles in OR.
• Develop a training plan that includes the training's objectives, scope, and content.
• Deliver the training through various channels such as classroom sessions, online courses, and workshops.
• Evaluate the effectiveness of the training by measuring the learning outcomes and feedback from the participants.

Who Needs What Level of Power-Up?

Not everyone needs the full-on berserker training. Just like a well-stocked armoury, you need different tools for different roles:

• General Awareness: All hands on deck! Basic training for everyone covers the OR framework, key concepts, and why it matters. Think of it as everyone knowing where the emergency exits are.
• Targeted Training: Some roles, like the OR core team, need more profound training. They are the knights on the front lines, mastering specific skills like incident management and recovery procedures.
• Education and Certification: For the generals leading the charge, consider specialized education and certifications. They'll be the master strategists, ensuring your OR program is top-notch.

Training Methods: From Bootcamp to Brain Games

There's no one-size-fits-all approach. Mix and match these methods to create the perfect training blend for your team:

• E-learning modules: Bite-sized knowledge nuggets, perfect for busy schedules.
• On-the-job training: Learn by doing, shadowing experienced colleagues.
• Testing and exercises: Practice makes perfect! Simulate disruptions to identify gaps and hone skills.
• Workshops and seminars: Interactive learning for deeper understanding and collaboration.
• Certification programs: Validate expertise and build confidence.

Remember: Training is not just about cramming facts. It's about building confidence, fostering a culture of resilience, and creating a team that can face any challenge together.

Become an OR Champion

Implementing training and awareness is not a solo quest. Here's how you can be the hero of your organization:

• Identify your training needs: Assess your organization's specific risks and roles.
• Choose the right tools: Tailor your training methods to your audience and goals.
• Get buy-in from leadership: Show them the value of a resilient workforce.
• Make it engaging and accessible: Keep it fun, interactive, and relevant to real-world scenarios.
• Measure and improve: Track the impact of your training and adapt as needed.
