“Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.” – Benjamin Franklin

 

There is no escaping it, you will have to intentionally acquire new skills and competencies if you want to keep up or better yet, stay ahead of the game. It is imperative that organizations invest in training their team so that they can maintain their company’s competitive edge.

 

On this episode of The Entrepreneurial You podcast Brian shares insight into how this can be managed effectively.

 

Here is a snippet of what Brian shared:

 

“When we think of ongoing learning for organizations, I think that the definition of learning needs to be expanded beyond the training environment. Having an opportunity to take a step away from life, take a step away from emails, and phone calls, and get into the training room, or go to a conference and meet other people and network, that’s super important. But a lot of organizations are like, well, we don’t have a budget. If you take a look at ATD, the Association for Talent Development, they have an annual State of the Industry Report, and that will tell you about, according to respondents for this study, how much organizations are spending per head on training, and I think that’s a really interesting benchmark for organizations to take a look at. You know, do we spend any money on formal learning for our staff? How are we measuring up to what the average is.”

 

Listen to the episode and let us know what is your biggest takeaway.
