VMware is a software solutions provider specializing in cloud and virtualization services that powers complex digital infrastructure. Released in 2009, VMware vSphere is a cloud computing virtualization platform that supports container-based application development.
Why take this course?
VMware vSphere is designed for the system administrator or system engineer who is rather new to virtualization or has never played with a virtual machine. Students will learn how virtual machines interact with the physical hardware that they’re running on and about the VMware ESXi, an enterprise-class, type-1 hypervisor developed by VMware for deploying and serving virtual computers. As a type-1 hypervisor, ESXi is not a software application that is installed on an operating system; instead, it includes and integrates vital OS components.
Students will be building and playing with virtual machines, so it will be helpful if the student already knows how to install and manage Microsoft Windows or Linux Operating Systems. It will also be helpful if the student has at least some networking and storage experience.

Course Introduction
Introduction to vSphere and Software-Defined Data Center
Accountability means an obligation that an individual or team accepts to take ownership of. It is about taking personal responsibility for a job to be done. We can easily achieve this by simply showing up and doing the things that one has committed to. While doing so, we must trust our teammates and know that we can count on each other to get things done.
Why is accountability important?
For an organization to achieve its full potential, it is vital to build a healthy accountability culture across the board.
As a leader, do you face difficulty in getting your teams to showcase accountability?
If you answered yes to the above question, you have come to the right place.
You’ll notice that your employee’s job satisfaction levels increase when you let them own a piece. What does owning a piece mean? It does not mean that you are giving them ownership of your business. You are giving them the freedom to make decisions and making them responsible for their actions at work. Companies that adopt a culture of accountability have proven to improve their productivity by setting expectations and eliminating surprises for their employees.
How to build an accountability culture in your organization?
The transformation of your leadership style to accommodate an accountability culture might seem overwhelming at the beginning, but as you embark on this journey, you’ll notice that your teams have aligned with your company’s values and they have become more competent than before.
Let’s look at some of the key elements in shaping your company’s accountability culture.
Define Accountability
The first step in setting up an accountability culture in an organization is for leaders to have a clear definition of what, who, and how chalked out. There should be clarity on the expectations, what are the immediate goals and future goals, their timelines, how to measure growth, and ensuring that the resources to deliver are made available. If you don’t know how to define your company’s accountability culture, we can help you with it. Ask us how at mike@p2linc.com
Discuss Choices
The next step in the path of nurturing an accountability culture in your organization is to have conversations with your immediate team members and employees at the designing stage. We can collate this by conducting surveys, and weekly or monthly meetings. Engaging your teams to know what will motivate them will help you establish an accountability relationship. Giving employees the needed autonomy to accomplish their tasks with a focus on company goals will lead to an increase in productivity.
Identify Obstacles
Then comes the most exciting part of the accountability culture-building process, which is tracking your company’s progress. Collect data to track employees’ understanding of the company’s objectives and their personal goals. Aligning individual growth with that of the organizations eliminates ambiguity and builds healthy employer-employee relationships. That brings us to the next step of communication through mentorship.
Offer Mentorship
It’s time to use the metrics and identify employees who need mentorship. Not having clarity on what’s next builds stress and reduces the ability to perform. Knowing where we stand in the game helps us to figure out our next move. Offer coaching to your executives from time to time so they clearly understand their responsibilities, thus making them accountable for their actions.
Recognize Results
The ultimate step of inculcating an accountability culture within your teams is to recognize every small and big milestone of everyone in the organization. Peer elevation plays an immense role in keeping employee motivation in a healthy place, resulting in them taking ownership of their actions and consequences.
Send in your enquiries to know how you can build an accountability culture that’s best suited for your organization. Our team will be happy to equip you with the five-step model to create accountability within your teams.

If you are a business owner looking to set up a learning management system for your staff, get in touch with us now! We can help customize a system that’s just perfect for you. If you are new to LMS, I am sure you are curious to know everything about it. Don’t fret, we got you covered.
What is an LMS?
Learning management system (LMS) in simple words, is a digital portal for training and development for employees of an organization. Unlike in the past, where training meant that learners come together in a classroom to gain new skills, now, LMS allows them to learn as they go using online programs with just a click of a mouse. These learn-on-demand sessions help employees gain the skills on the job and continuously.
Why is LMS beneficial over traditional learning?
LMS has many advantages over in-class training. While training your employees is vital for businesses to grow. By setting up a customized learning management system, companies staff development objectives are met at a significantly lower cost as learning takes place online in a single software platform, thus avoiding all the expenses incurred at a physical venue.
How does LMS work?
We can incorporate training management systems into the company’s internal network. LMS delivers training via virtual classrooms, on demand videos, augmented reality, interactive courses, quizzes, games, and surveys. Since these courses are setup online, learners can choose to learn at their own pace and time, from anywhere, and on any topic of choice. LMS is gaining popularity with the increase in remote working environments.
What are some of the key benefits LMS can give your organization?
In no particular order, let’s look at the top 6 advantages of LMS for businesses.
Cost Effective
Workshops to train employees include expenses such as renting a facility, arranging for training material for participants, and taking care of the boarding and lodging expenses of the attendees.
Learning management systems are significantly more cost effective compared to traditional classroom training. Companies can totally avoid all the above expenses in a virtual learning set up, thus reducing costs drastically.
Time Efficient
Consider the increase in congestion in cities and the time lost in commuting from one place to another. It’s another story when employees travel between cities and countries to take part in training and development programs. The number of work hours lost will directly affect the productivity numbers.
LMS is available to employees at their fingertips on their laptops or computers. Further, microlearning programs allow learners to upgrade their skills with its bite sized curriculums. Lastly, on-demand learning allows people to learn the exact tech or soft skill that they are looking for at a particular time.
Flexible Learning Experience
Learning management systems allow learners to keep track of their progress in a chosen course. They have flexibility to start multiple courses at a time and learn as they go. Employees, irrespective of their location, receive the same content, which keeps the quality of the learning program consistent. And it keeps your organization unified because they use the same terminology and “speak the same language”.
Automated Data Capture
LMS, also referred to as the learning activity management system, collects and stores data for future reference. The system tracks progress, hours spent in learning, the number of completed and pending certifications, helps identify which skills employees are finding difficult/easy to learn and the feedback provided by the learners. These metrics aid in designing future learning plans that are beneficial for the company. Furthermore, this is a very useful tool for staffing teams to look up the employees with similar skills to fill in when needed, or to plan for the staffing of upcoming projects.
Engaging & Entertaining
Modern learning experience platforms referred to as LXP’s are gaining popularity with generation Z and it will continue to evolve with generation Alpha. With their intuitive UX designs, these new age learning methods make learning activity more fun and effective. Further, these learning applications allow learners to develop skills through simple short quizzes, simulation activities, and other virtual interactive games. Learning essential soft skills through P2L’s latest custom game – Elite Commander, is certain to enhance your businesses learning ecosystem.
Gamification – A fun LMS for next generation
Encourages Employee Retention
Retention of employees is a challenge that most businesses suffer. Offering advanced learning platforms keeps them motivated to continue with your organization. WIIFM—‘What’s in it for me?’ is a question that’s posed upon every hiring manager and when companies have a LMS that offers skills a step ahead of their industry, it gives them the edge not only with hiring of new employees, but with retention as well.
