WELCOMEto the ‘EUROBANQUA’ Dissemination ConferenceChristos GortsosSecretary General HELLENIC BANK ASSOCIATION
THANK YOU • for your Participation • We count on your feedback • and your contribution to the follow up. • Christos Gortsos • Secretary General • H.B.A
‘European BankingNetworkfor QualityAssurance’: • Personal thanks • Joao Delgado, from the European • Commission, • for his participation in the Conference • the EBTN President, Prof. Mario Spatafora • who led the project • and our colleagues • from the partner Institutes, • for their effective group working
The rules of the game • The QA guidelines indicate WHAT we have to do • It is our responsibility to define WHO should do it • Who is the right person for QA Management • Who are the right people to undertake quality training and development activities • The tool provides us with the rules of the game • VET & HRD have to provide the good players • They have to insure the success of a fair play
I. A new mindset • QA increases responsiveness to the newly emerging demands: • Achieve extraordinary results • with ordinary people • Quality in VET & HRD is the only way for such result • Quality in VET & HRD means transforming manpower • into efficient and effective professionals • Today, VET & HRD should undertake • an extra-ordinary activity • But you cannot do anything extra-ordinary without • a different Mindset: that focuses on outputs and outcomes
II. Effectiveness first • Effectiveness is not at all the same thing with efficiency • Efficiency is a balance between input and output • Effectiveness means making sure • that the resources are available • to get the results that you want • CQAF is about effectiveness: Indicators provide information on the degree to which objectives have been achieved • Resources should be available in all levels in order to get • ‘an agreement on quality objectives in all levels’
III. Enlarge the sense of learning • The professionals must be effective in • all the fields: productivity, profitability, efficiency, innovation, growth… • Learning must increase creativity, responsibility, good reasoning, initiative, vision… • Learning should cover development and change • Enlarging the sense of learning will facilitate HR transformation into a real resource of abilities, competitive advantages, values.
III. Enlarge the sense of learning • While enlarging the sense of learning, • we should restrict the scope of participation, • to an individual point of view: • taking into consideration • the particular needs of the employees • the perspective of the particular institution
IV. First Who… then What • Extraordinary results, in all fields and levels, • need motivation and commitment • to quality and excellence • We need motivated and committed trainers, designers, quality managers… • Learning agents must be emotionally intelligent and self-motivated • Culture helps in choosing the people who fit to the • character of the institution • People chose the ones who resemble them
V. Shortage of the main resource • Trainers with very high levelof knowledge and long professional experience are non available • There are only few chances to find the right qualifications and experience combined with emotional intelligence • Emotional intelligence is not a matter of training. • But it determines the possibilities to learn all those skills based on personal and social abilities. • Even with the small number of experienced trainers who dispose some of the 25 emotional abilities, it is hard to establish a loyal relationship, with lasting commitment.
VI. QA and Ethics • You cannot buy enthusiasm and loyalty • You cannot attract the right trainers if you only offer good prices • You need a value proposition, with elements of a culture oriented to results, an environment of trust • You need rewards and recognition • You also need standards to end the agreement
VI. QA and Ethics • Quality is never an accident • Quality is always theresult of intelligent and ethical effort • And so is Quality Assurance
Thank you • for • your kind attention!
