For a Good Laugh: Crash Course? More Like Smash Course.

 

SUPER COMMON SCENERIO:

Managers want to “save time and money” by squeezing GD&T into a single day of training. We can explain to them until we are blue in the face that we do NOT recommend that - but they're still going to demand it.

We can’t ignore the feedback — the #1 complaint we hear after training is: “There was too much crammed into the training."

 

Leaders want speed and cost savings.

Learners need time and space to absorb.

 

Reality: At the end of the day, you can save money on training… but if no one walks away actually able to use it, what did you really save?

-Tom
