Reflection - Learning Launch 

 Challenge : 

 I was tasked to set up a new revenue generation vertical in our organisation . We are in the business   of providing Industrial automation solutions to manufacturing industries in the automotive , FMCG and   general machineries sectors . The challenge was to create a new business vertical , which , obviously   would not compete with the current business processes and operations . Also , the goal was not to   develop a centre of excellence for a dedication application . We had to come up with a totally new   process / activity / service which will eventually contribute organisation ’s revenues . Over the years we   have been hearing customers say that there are n’t adequately trained fresh graduates in the field of   manufacturing automation . These graduates lacked the exposure and hand on training on automation   equipment ’s . Customers face difficulty in getting these freshers skilled up as the expensive   production ( capital ) equipment ’s can not be freed up for training and on the job trainings failed to   deliver desired results . To address this customer problem we decided to start a training academy . 

 Selection : 

 We wanted to test this idea of training academy and hence used the learning launch tool . We had to   create a practice set - up where the trainees would be trained thoroughly . The necessary resources   like spare machinery , space and budget was allocated . 

 Application : 

 We started out by laying out the equipment in way it would be in the factory rather than it would be   set up in a training lab . To enhance the learning and understanding experience graphical user   interfaces were set up which give additional information to the learner . We then invited team leaders   from the manufacturing units to check if the facility was able to provide training in a way which would   enable the trainees to perform and function at efficiencies which were desired by the industries .   Feedback was collected from representatives of different industries and the training modules and   equipment were tweaked so that we could meet at least 70 % of the requirements . 

 With the modified modules , equipment , layouts , etc . , we invited fresh hires from those manufacturing   industries who had participated in the earlier learning launch exercise . These trainees were trained   on the equipment and processes and also tested on the same . By practising the learning launch tool   we have tested our idea of a training academy in a quick and economical way . We did not have to   invest on new machinery or ( capital ) equipment . Now , the trained new hires were now deployed back   to their jobs . An assessment was carried out on their delivery post training and the feedback was very   positive . We were successful in delivering what the customer wanted . Their burning issues were   addressed to a great extent . A dedicated and holistic training for 2 weeks , time - lapsed the efficiency   of the trainees by 6 months ! 

 Insight : 

 By applying the learning launch tool we could understand how successful our design was , we could   estimate the extent to which we could achieve our customer ’s expectations and we also learned that   there is a market for this business vertical to scale up . Additionally , we also discovered new avenues   for growth in this segment . We could deliver better results if we grouped trainees from a particular   industry and provided them training . We could achieve 2X satisfaction levels ! 

 Approach : 

 Learning launch is an appropriate tool for validating before deployment . The team will use this tool to   expand portfolio of training provided ( like covering more industries ) or approach schools to participate   in the training programs to make the students ready to be absorbed by the industries and for   validating any modification to the content and delivery mechanisms . Learning launch can also be 

 used to test the concept in new geographic locations . Based on the outcome the business model can   be duplicated or tweaked and the final roll out could happen .
