Introduction

One of the key aspects of business success is the employees’ performance. This means that when a business aims at optimizing the performance of the employees most probably the best results which are achieving its objectives will be reached. Optimization also works to increase the profitability of the overall business. Any type of improvement especially that of employees demands for other actions which are aids to it.

They include documentation, training and prior communication to employees. Putting some considerations in hiring which is the first step to any job. From this point the firm employing workers have to come out clearly on some issues which are part of its responsibilities. The responsibilities at times include providing and offering the employee with training facilities and training services throughout his or her employment life with the form (Abraham, 2014)

Performance appraisal is one of the main methods of optimizing performance of the employees in an organisation. Performance appraisal can be referred using simple terms as an investigation conducted to check on whether employees are performing their duties according to the set standards. The aim of performance appraisal is a working technique that seeks to improve the productivity of workers by not indulging in total supervision of them (Angelo, 2012).

Training remains critical while executing any performance appraisal as it aims at improving the performance of employees. This will in turn improve the workability of the


employees and as time progresses the overall profitability of the form will be improved or there will be an increase in profit margin of the organisation. Training aims at improving the skills of the workforce which in turn brings efficiency in the work being done. Thus, this makes training to be one of the most important aspects of appraisal as it directly affects the organisation positively.

Training has the biggest value to both the efficiency of the organisation and the wellbeing of the workers. Training improves the current skills with the workers which mean there will be an improvement in the performance of workers. Training to employees thus translates to increased efficiency among workers. This will in turn attract an increment in the total output of the organisation. Training will also impact the lives of employees positively as it will help them attract good pay due to their improved skills thus have a positive change towards their lives through improvement of living standards (George, 2010)

With the Matrix organisation training should conducted starting with the supervisors. This is so because they will be able to pass their skills to junior workers and by the end of the process there will be a positive impact on performance. Supervisors are the ones who regulate the output of the firm and thus they should be properly skilled so that they can be in a position to mobilise the other workers working in the production unit.

There are different types of training which are based on different working units and the nature of the organisation. For a manufacturing organisation the supervisors should be trained on how to mobilise workers with an aim to increase production. There is training for the managers of the firm including the human resource managers on how to handle the assets of organisation properly (Anne, 2013).

The Matrix organisation with the aid of other business partners should take part in the provision of training to employees. It is the mandate of any organisation to provide training facilities and services to its workers during their working tenure. This will help in the improvement of its efficiency. It is part of the working agreement that the organisation should take their employees to the training where necessary.


Effective training to workers will help them appreciate each other`s role and thus they will be in a position to respect their colleagues’ efforts in the place of work. Training will also increase knowledge and efficiency to workers thus eliminating the bias that is associated with properly trained workers upon their untrained fellows, everyone will have something to present to their colleagues at the place of work (Abraham, 2014).
