After all perhaps a fraction of the budget is spent on training; we want to eat a cone of icecream and keep on measuring the impact of the cone in quantified terms rather than acknowleding the positive feeling already generated; complain would anyway come if the icecream was bad enough.<BR/><BR/>some humble sharing and response, regards!<BR/><BR/>shantaramkhrd@yahoo.co.ukkshantaramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15252322004592712012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3623132.post-44876080530029437692008-08-21T10:25:00.000+05:302008-08-21T10:25:00.000+05:30If training has failed the business..then we can a...If training has failed the business..then we can also say education has failed the system (here by system I mean the world we are living in).

'fire you?' watson bellowed. 'i just spent $10 million educating you. i merely want to be sure you learned the right lessons.'<BR/><BR/>i think businesses need to get well beyond training programs and focus more on how to get people to learn from experience. and by experience i mean both successes AND FAILURES, which are typically neglected because no one wants to revisit them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
