Some team members resist cross-functional training. Are you ready to tackle their resistance head-on?
Cross-functional training is a strategic approach used in human resources (HR) to enhance the versatility and breadth of skills within a workforce. By training employees across different functions, organizations can foster a more adaptable and collaborative culture. However, not every team member might be on board with this change. Resistance can arise due to fear of the unknown, discomfort with change, or a lack of understanding of the benefits. As someone responsible for training and development, you must be equipped to handle such resistance effectively.
