“Information is a source of learning. But unless it is organized, processed, and available to the right people in a format for decision making, it is a burden, not a benefit.”
— C. William Pollard, Chairman, Fairwyn Investment Company
As shown in the graphic here, the most used training tactics are not always the most effective. The crown for effectiveness belongs to coaching / mentoring, yet that method ranks fifth in terms of most commonly used. Part of that is due to the recurring nature of coaching and mentoring; this is not something that happens in the course of one session as an online module or in-person training might. But this recurring, focused modality does ensure that concepts are instilled over a longer time horizon.Picking the best training option
