Building a Learning Organization - Training

Training is an aspect of learning that sharpens body and mind. It should be designed as an edifying, confidence-building aspect of both individual (personal) and collective (organizational) development.

In training, the answer is more important than the question. Often times the answer takes the form of action in response to a condition. Meeting and exceeding established tasks, conditions, and standards continually “raise-the-bar” in training.

In addition, accuracy (deviation from perfection) and precision (repeatability of effects) are both sharpened through training. Individual and collective safety is a product of demanding training that always raises the bar in both accuracy and precision.
