Why Successful Organizations Spend Time & Effort on Learning & Development? If Not, Is There an Impact?

# – 2 Do you also believe that An organizations ability to LEARN, and translate that learning into ACTION is the ultimate COMPETITIVE EDGE?
If a LEADER believe it costs too much TO DO, think about how much it will cost to NOT DO.
If a LEADER think investing 1 OR 2 DAYS TIME of their RELEVANT TEAM’s for TRAINING by EXPERTS is far too much time, think about the cost of replacing people that leave because of a lack of development.
If a LEADER think spending 2 to 4 hours a month with every member of your team talking about their problems and how you can help adds up to too much, think about the cost of dealing with the reputation of being a bad employer that doesn’t care about its people.
If a LEADER think spending few thousand dollars on any LEARNING & DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES is too expensive, think about the cost of dealing with losing few of your market share over the course of some months due to LACK OF QUALITY, TIMELY DELIVERY & WRONG PRIORITIZATION.
If a LEADER think spending few dollars a year on a service that helps you to implement your acquired deeper market insights is too expensive, think about the cost of conducting BUSINESS with IMPROPER DELIVERY to your CUSTOMERS. Flip the equation around, and sometimes the answer becomes clear. And before you say it’s too expensive, ask yourself, “How much would it cost us if we don’t do it?”
