Ad hoc counselling and Training interventions


Training and consultancy are two fundamental tools in today’s world of work, especially in a constantly changing market. Training, which includes continuous education activities, enables employees to update their skills and adapt to new technologies and working methods. Consultancy, on the other hand, supports companies in planning and implementing targeted training strategies, helping them to improve operational efficiency and respond effectively to the challenges of the global context. As pointed out by Salas et al. (2012), well-designed training has proven to be effective in improving performance, reducing errors and promoting innovation within organisations. Companies that invest in employee training see an improvement not only in technical skills, but also in the ability to adapt to complex changes, maintaining a competitive advantage. According to Bashir (2013), organisations that invest in the training and development of their employees achieve numerous benefits, including improved productivity, greater ability to innovate and reduced turnover. Investing in the professional development of employees not only enhances their satisfaction, but also contributes to the company’s competitiveness. In fact, a continuous learning environment stimulates employee involvement and makes them more flexible and ready to face the challenges of the future. Consultancy also plays a key role in improving corporate performance. As highlighted by Sartori et al. (2018), career counselling provides companies with concrete tools to manage change and foster innovation. Through targeted consultancies, organisations can develop effective strategies for upgrading the skills of their employees, thereby improving their ability to adapt to market dynamics. In conclusion, the integration of training and consultancy offers added value to organisations. Investing in these two aspects not only improves employees’ performance, but also contributes to a flexible working environment that is ready to face the constant changes required by the market.
