It is said that an electrical engineer from Stanford University is obsolete 7 years after graduation. The only saving element from obsolescence is Training. The same applies to all fields of work and more specifically to the softer life skills that build Leadership and Values. Without Training a young executive is left floundering for the all-important test of his career – how to Lead.

Business Processes alone do not create Leaders. There must be an additional input. The organization must aspire to evolve to becoming a Learning Organization where Training is given primacy among all other corporate functions because only Training delivers where it matters – creating Leaders who make a difference. A difference not just on results but also by adding Value to all stakeholders. It is that difference that creates a great organization.
