13. Strength
Our location, the
business model we
will be operating on,
varieties of payment
options, safe and
reliable delivery and
our excellent
customer service
culture will definitely
count as a strong
strength for Eagles
Wings
Weakness
A major weakness
that may count
against us is the fact
that we are new
commercial drone
delivery company
and we may have to
ride on external
publicity of the
reliability of drones
as a safe and fast
means of delivery to
grow our business.
Opportunity
We have been able
to conduct thorough
feasibility studies
and market survey
and we know what
our potential clients
will be looking for
when they hire our
services; we are well
positioned to take on
the opportunities
that will come our
way.
Threat
A major threat that
may work against us
is the fact that
people and
businesses in the
United States have
not fully
embraced drone as
a means of
delivery. So also,
legal and
regulatory
environment can
stand as a challenge
to us.

15. The developing a training program are as follows:
1. Needs assessment and learning objectives. This part of the framework development asks you to consider what kind of
training is needed in your Drone services. Once you have determined the training needed, you can set learning objectives to
measure at the end of the training.
2. Consideration of learning styles. Making sure to teach to a variety of learning styles is important to development of training
programs.
3. Delivery mode. A delivery drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) used to transport packages, medical supplies, food, or
other goods. Drones may be remotely piloted or autonomous.
4. Budget. How much money do you have to spend on this training?
5. Delivery style. Considering this, ice breakers, breakout discussions, and activities can you incorporate to make the training
as interactive as possible. Role plays and other games can make the training fun for employees. Many trainers implement
online videos, podcasts, and other interactive media in their training sessions. This ensures different learning styles are met
and also makes the training more interesting.
6. Audience. if you know that all the people attending the training are from the accounting department, examples you
provide in the training can be focused on this type of job. If you have a mixed group, examples and discussions can
touch on a variety of disciplines.
16. 7. Content.
1. Be able to define and explain the handling of hazardous materials in the workplace.
2. Be able to utilize the team decision process model.
3. Understand the definition of sexual harassment and be able to recognize sexual harassment in the workplace.
4. Understand and be able to explain the company policies and structure.
8. Timelines.

2. The second and third Tuesday will consist of vestibule training on management skills and communication.
3. Twice yearly, in August and March, safety and sexual harassment training will be given to meet the legal company
requirements.
▪ Developing a dependable training schedule allows for better communication to your staff, results in fewer communication
issues surrounding training, and allows all employees to plan ahead to attend training.
17. Team Training
We can define team training as a process that empowers teams to improve decision making, problem solving, and team-development skills
to achieve business results. Often this type of training can occur after an organization has been restructured and new people are working
together or perhaps after a merger or acquisition. Some reasons for team training include the following:
• Improving communication
• Making the workplace more enjoyable
• Motivating a team
• Getting to know each other
• Getting everyone “onto the same page,” including goal setting
• Teaching the team self-regulation strategies
• Helping participants to learn more about themselves (strengths and weaknesses)
• Identifying and utilizing the strengths of team members
• Improving team productivity
• Practicing effective collaboration with team members.
18. Safety Training
Safety training is a type of training that occurs to ensure employees are protected from injuries caused by work-related
accidents. Safety training is especially important for organizations that use chemicals or other types of hazardous materials
in their production. Safety training can also include evacuation plans, fire drills, and workplace violence procedures.
Safety training can also include the following:
• Eye safety
• First aid
• Food service safety
• Hearing protection
• Asbestos
• Construction safety
• Hazmat safety
19. Basic Training Module for workforce.
Courses:
● Introductionto the company
● Health & Safety in the workplace
● Systems training on Epos
Actions:
● Attend a review meeting after week 1 with Manager
● Spend 1 shift with onsite Buddy
20.
21. The successful completion of all these Actions and Courses means the employee would
move up to Level 2 (Job Skills) within the Stage.
However, if new Courses or Actions were added as mandatory to the completion of that
Level, the employee would automatically move back down to Level 1 until that mandatory
part of the programmed was completed.
A systematic approach will help to complete the training on a quick basis and make an
employee fit to work as per industrial standards.
A good training module will also ensure that there is no confusion among employees
regarding standard protocols to be followed during critical situations.
22. Effective Shift Schedule
There are two types of staff-
The floor employees (Operations Managers, Warehouse Manager as well as workers (janitors, maintenance
employees) and people who work and are associated with the physical moment and handling of the service)
The office back-end employees (Customer care, Logistics Tracking team, H.R and Payroll)
Most employees are needed to work in shifts as the courier industry has this basic requirement of timely delivery and
mostly work 24x7.
Rotational shifts (1week night ,1 week morning, 1 week afternoon shift) are a best option for the on-floor employees.
This will help in reducing the night job work fatigue.
Fixed shifts are ideal for the back-end employees 9 am to 5pm is ideal industry standard. This is applicable to
employees whose work is independent to the on-floor employees. If backend has a direct or indirect relation to the
particular on floor team then an alignment of shifts accordingly shall be well coordinated by the shift scheduling
coordinators.
Division of schedule with minimum down time.
