Crane Industry Services will highlight solutions for both skilled trades workers and leadership during The Utility Expo, Sept. 28-30, in Louisville, Kentucky. See them at Booth N2008.
During the show, attendees can participate in a brief, free assessment of their crew’s communication and feedback skills, emotional intelligence, processes, accountability and cohesion. Results are delivered onsite and can be compared to aggregate industry data. “This assessment is a powerful first step in helping utility crews reduce risk and improve productivity,” said Peter Krammer, senior partner, Okos Partners and TradeUp senior advisor.
CIS uses cutting-edge training and assessment tools to help public and investor-owned utilities, rural cooperatives and the utility contractors who serve them, achieve organizational excellence. “Self-sustaining workforce development—not just mere compliance—is what sets CIS apart from other skilled trades training companies,” said Debbie Dickinson, CEO of CIS.
Workforce development encompasses four key areas—recruitment, assessment, training and leadership. CIS and Okos Partners work with employers to evaluate and execute workforce development plans in these four areas with its customizable TradeUp program. Learn more at www.tradeupworks.com.
