WORK METHODOLOGY

All organisations have a life cycle. At each new stage of development, organisations face specific challenges. How well or poorly these problems are addressed, and the necessary changes that are made, determine the success or failure of that company.

COOPERATION WITH ADIZES INSTITUTE

Since 2019, in close cooperation with the Adizes Institute in Latvia, KRONUS takes care of the company’s transformation, analysing the company’s processes, introducing changes, and working on potential improvement points in various work groups, in an atmosphere of mutual trust and respect. The transformation process was started with the diagnosis of the company and the structure of KRONUS has been transformed. KRONUS received the “Company of the Year” award for significant business achievements in implementing Adizes methodologies.

INDIVIDUAL STUDIES

Since 2020, we have started creating and implementing individual training plans. Each employee, in cooperation with the manager, can plan their training needs based on the goals and priorities of the department and the company. Funds are allocated for each employee’s priority training to ensure sufficient professional development.

Sales skills

Every year, the colleagues of the sales and operations departments renew their knowledge of transaction negotiation techniques; we also work with internally developed principles of export sales – how to talk with customers, how to deal with objections. These principles are alive because they develop along with the situation in the market, in our clients’ companies and also with us. That’s why we study with industry professionals, finding the most appropriate training service providers for the current training needs.

IT skills

Continuous technological development has become the new normal in every organisation. This is why the acquisition of new IT skills has become an important criterion for improving the development and competitiveness of employees and the company. We regularly provide IT skills development courses for both production plant and administration employees; we mentor and support new colleagues in learning KRONUS IT programs and systems on a daily basis.
languages

Languages

As a multinational company, KRONUS learns languages. Our team includes colleagues with knowledge of Latvian, Russian, English, French, German, Spanish, Lithuanian, Chinese and other languages. We are open to different languages ​​and communicate every day in the languages ​​we know best and our communication is at a high level. This multilingualism also motivates us to learn more languages.
management

Management skills

Kronus is convinced that the company’s success is helped by strong, professional managers of various levels who care about their own and their employees’ development and well-being at work. The company has more than 30 managers of different levels, with varying experience, personality and style, but they are all united by Kronus’ goals.

The development of leaders is important to Kronus; therefore, in 2021, a Leadership Training Programme was created, where managers of different levels learn the necessary skills and tools that help them manage themselves, others and achieve results in working with people.
production

Production

Kronus provides training, in which production employees are trained to work with equipment. That’s why we train our production colleagues to recognise different grades of timber, to identify damage to pallets and pallet collars. Every employee who starts work at Kronus is trained in the training centre, where even a new colleague who knows nothing about production and timber has the opportunity to learn and become an experienced employee in this field. There is in-depth training on working with equipment and also on work safety and fire safety. Our mechanics and engineers learn equipment programming and service skills from equipment manufacturers and in cooperation with various Latvian schools and universities.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT

We regularly measure the employee engagement index and see that learning, developing as a professional is what motivates people to stay at KRONUS, work hard and participate in growth with the company. The higher the qualification of the employees – the more successfully the company can overcome various situations, both in the market and inside the company. High-level specialists are those who can react even in uncertain situations, which we face every day.

KRONUS LIBRARY

KRONUS is a company that is always learning! This is proven by the example of our managers, who always encourage their colleagues to read new books about people, process, change management, different theories and development as managers. We regularly replenish the KRONUS library with the latest business literature, which every employee has the opportunity to read. We learn not only from the books, which are already around 160 in the KRONUS library, but also from situations, events and our own experiences.
