The Strategic Training Objective Creation Process:  This is where the magic happens!

You take a “lowly” task and elevate it in status to a Strategic Training Objective

How do I do this?  What exactly is happening in this process of task to STO?

• Using the appropriate template from this module, “simply” begin to describe the work.


• THINK, but don’t overthink. If you experience “overwhelm” you’re overthinking.


• The “biggest win” here is documenting the work, no matter how rudimentary to start. Perfection at this stage is not the goal – “Getting it out of your experts’ head” is the goal.


• Use the below ideas and to guide you, motivate you and inspire you…

• The work is scrutinized to ensure it is part of the vision – if not, it’s deleted.


• You ask questions about the work – “what are we doing, why are we doing…”


• The work is described


• The work is brought into the light – it is focused on


• The work is documented – it is no longer just verbal


• The work is elevated in importance – it gets it’s own STO name


• The work is named: you create a shared language, a training vocabulary


• The work is becoming a system – it can be replicated


• The work can be delegated to someone else


• You are getting free of this responsibility – a chunk of the work that you once did, is now successfully transferred to another
  
  
  
  • You can do your higher calling work
  
  
  • You can work ON the business
  
  
  
  


• The work is thought about – THINK


• The work is broken into segments/modules – Training chunks with a beginning and an end


• The work takes on accountability – it can be assigned and initialed, you can create quizzes and tests for competency and understanding


• The work becomes more efficient, you eliminate unneeded steps


• The work is integrated into all other company systems and divisions


• The work becomes effective – it is part of the vision
