You're facing resistance from employees on HR Operations training. How can you motivate them to participate?

To motivate employees to participate in HR Operations training, highlight its direct benefits, such as smoother workflows, reduced errors, and career growth opportunities. Make the training engaging with interactive sessions, real-life case studies, and gamification. Address their concerns by showing how it simplifies their daily tasks rather than adding to their workload. Incentivize participation with recognition, certificates, or rewards. Lastly, secure leadership buy-in to reinforce the importance of training and encourage a culture of continuous learning.

Employees resist HR operations training, feeling it’s irrelevant to their daily tasks. To motivate them, understand resistance - listen to their concerns about time, complexity or lack of perceived benefits. For instance, a team worried about learning new software might fear it’ll slow them down. Address these concerns by showing how the training will save time, improve processes and make their jobs easier. By connecting the training to their needs and providing clear, simple explanations, you transform resistance into engagement.
