Once
hired, L.M. Berry employees are introduced to a state-of-the-art blended
learning approach where we combine web-based and instructor-led
training to ensure maximum learning comprehension and retention.
Our goal is to develop employee capabilities (mindset, knowledge
and skills) to help them succeed throughout their careers and exceed
our customers' expectations. Employees are continually challenged
to reach farther, expand their skills and knowledge and they are
empowered to do so with numerous training opportunities.
The
Training and Development Department provides a continuous learning
environment that includes internal and external classroom work, computer-based
training and self-study opportunities. Additionally, as members
of the AT&T family, L.M. Berry managers are encouraged to take advantage
of the extensive management-training curriculum available through
the AT&T Learning Center, which focuses on developing
key skill sets found in successful leaders. Finally, management and supervisory employees participate in the Management Curriculum Development Program, that ensures the correct training support is provided on a timely basis.

Leadership Training
Our
extensive management training curriculum enhances the ability of
our managers to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to elevate
their teams' success. New managers are provided with three weeks
of intensive activity-based learning
with the expectation that what is covered in the classroom will
have immediate practical application on the job.
L.M. Berry

During
these sessions, managers are taught to recruit, develop and retain
quality employees, to uphold L.M. Berry's corporate philosophy, culture
and values, and to utilize many diagnostic and developmental
sales development tools.
