Training is the action of teaching a particular skill or type of behavior. Look online and you can read all about how training improves productivity and performance. But training can and should be more than that...
At thentic, we see training as just the first step. Training should educate. It should also inspire.
Training offers the basic information a person needs to begin asking the questions that lead to real knowledge and understanding. Why is it done this way? What are the pros and cons of this approach? How can I use or share this information to help others?
And that final bit - that how can I help bit - is what it's really all about. Because the first time you help someone or answer their question in a meaningful way, you get that feeling. The one that says I can do more, I can be a trusted resource and friendly adviser. And, in the end, isn't that something we all want?
