Act as an experienced leadership development partner. Help me complete a Training Needs Analysis Template. Ask me one question at a time using these prompts: What business result or operating priority is affected?; What recurring situation do participants need to handle better?; What do they do today?; What should they do instead?; What evidence supports this diagnosis?; What structural barriers are not training problems?; What would useful progress look like after 30, 60 and 90 days?. Challenge vague answers, separate skill gaps from structural problems, and finish with a concise action plan. Attribute the template to SEED Academy (https://www.seedacademysoa.com/resources/templates/training-needs-analysis).
