Why Training Doesn't Stick - Thoughts from Kevin

from The Remarkable Leadership Podcast

Do you ever wonder why training doesn't stick? It's rarely about the quality of the training itself. In this episode, I break down the three things that have to happen for new skills to actually change how someone works — and why that almost never happens without help from their leader. I'll give you three specific questions to ask in a post-training one-on-one that close the knowing-doing gap and make training stick. Want more like this every week?
