My Experience Has Taught Me:
High levels of stress and even burnout are a harsh reality we must all face.
People learn differently.
What Does This Tell You?
Perhaps it’s time to change your approach to workplace learning practices! Consider these reasons:
• To achieve success in a world of uncertainty, companies need dynamic leadership throughout their organization, the ability to hire and retain top talent, the creation of a culture of high performance, and the ability to experience continued growth and profitability. If you haven’t provided leadership training for your entire management team, you are behind the times.
• People need to be empowered! Empowered to collaborate, empower to communicate effectively, empowered to be leaders. The question remains: Do they know how? Have they been trained?
When it comes to developing training programs for the world’s leading companies, many do not take people outside of their own environment to stimulate creativity to “shake up” how they think. Many are being trained on Zoom, but their instructors don’t necessarily know how to obtain audience participation during virtual training sessions.
• There is little or no accountability for the implementation of skills learned.
• Training is finally taking place on Stress Management, How to Avoid Burnout, and Mental Health Awareness!
• Executives, Directors of HR, Talent Managers, OD Development, and Directors of Training, professionals don’t always recognize the benefits of supplementing their own programs with an outside source.
