The 3 Important “C’s” of Independent Contracting Training

There are many important components that add up to the success of an HVAC, plumbing, or electrical independent contracting service company.  Whether working to increase leads, grow sales, maintain client retention, promote professionalism, or develop customer relation skills; there is one important activity that works to jumpstart and shape all of these important company components—Training.   In today’s post, we are going to explore three great factors that come along with implementing a training routine or investing in a specific training program:

-Training promotes Collaboration-

HVAC, plumbing, or electrical independent contracting training allows team members to be immersed in an environment that values and engages in collaboration and teamwork.  This type of group interaction is key to the learning and knowledge-retention process.  When team members feel free to discuss new ideas in a safe and learning-driven environment then these new concepts can be processed and practiced so they can become effective skills.  Collaboration breeds learning and growth, and company teams that learn the value of collaboration can effectively implement their newfound service excellence skills into every component of their daily interaction with both clients and coworkers.

-Training encourages Creativity-

Creativity goes hand-in-hand with embracing team collaboration.  When team members and trainers share their effective skills and advice with other technicians, CSRs, dispatchers, or managers then it jumpstarts creativity and ingenuity.  When we hear new ideas our brain natural begins to connect that new idea with other related ideas and thoughts inside our mind.  Thus hearing a new concept helps generate other new and potentially useful ideas and skills.  A little creativity goes a long way when it comes to improving services excellence, generating new marketing campaigns, or creating more proficient company plans.

-Training fosters Confidence- 

After collaboration and creativity begin to take root during a training session or training regimen, then confidence inside a company team will begin to flourish and thrive.  Training naturally promoting an environment of confidence because every team member that works to gain new knowledge and insight into their job will begin to feel more confident and capable to perform their daily tasks well.  Team morale and confidence will inherently begin to rise as employees implement the skills they have gained through training and they start to see how the skills will positively influence and affect their success in the independent contracting world.

The three important C’s of training: collaboration, creativity, and confidence are aspects that add to the success of every service company.  Independent contractors want their team to possess these three assets in order to attain individual employee success as well as overall companywide success.
