3 Steps to Building a Smarter Training Budgets – One that Gets Approved by Executives and Impacts the Business

Organizations continue to budget and spend billions of dollars each year on training and development for their employees – programs that typically fail to produce tangible business results. No wonder the majority of executives are looking at ways to aggressively cut training costs.

While we know that training events have their place in terms of career development, employee engagement, and team building, we have yet to find a client who believes that training “by itself” will drive tangible change or lasting business results.

Based on over 25 years of experience, here are the three steps that we have found to be most effective.
