How to dramatically improve the ROI on your training spend

Given that the "credit crunch" is likely to impact us all, wouldn't it be useful to ensure you get the best possible return on your training investment? By supporting training initiatives with coaching, your organisation will see considerable evidence of your staff's new skills / learnings.

There is statistical evidence to suggest that traditional training only results in a 22% improvement in productivity.

However,  when training is combined with coaching (before the training takes place, to confirm the objectives, and / or afterwards, to ensure implementation of the new learnings once back in the workplace) a dramatic improvement of 88% was found.

So, you can ensure you get better value for money, and see real behavioural change, by supporting the traditional training of your senior staff, with coaching.
