Change Management: Training Is Not Enough
It is difficult to find organisations that would say, "We find that training has little impact on our bottom line year on year".Is this because organisations know exactly what return they get from training? The answer to that question is a clear no. The American Society for Training and Development reported that only 3% of organisations measure what happens to their bottom line as a result of training.Or is it that it is politically incorrect to say in an organisation that has a high investment in training, "We waste our money on training". My observation is that this is somewhere near the truth.Designing training that allows adults to learn is no simple feat in

By that I mean they arrived close to 8 or 8:30AM and left between 5 and 5:30PM. By 6 PM the office was empty. No one seemed to notice or care how many hours people worked.

Several times however when I had a big sale pending I would stay late to get the contract in order or to put the final touches on a big proposal or presentation. On those occasions I would get teased by my colleagues. They thought I was nut

The experience that your customer has with your company has more to do with your behavior towards them than anything else.Too many people treat a customer like a moment, rather than an important EXPERIENCE. You see, people just want to know that they matter. Not just their money or their time, but they want to know that they matter as a human being. When you treat your customers like taking care of them is the absolute most important part of your day, you solidify in their minds good thoug
