Corporate Training: May 2009
http://corporatetrainingnews.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 31, 2009. In my last post, I introduced the idea of Systems Thinking to argue David H. Maister’s belief that “Training should not be used as a first (or stand-alone) step to long-term change, but as part of a process toward organisational change.”. In this article, I’d like to continue and build upon this argument to help you understand why stand-alone training is not enough to encourage the evolution of your organisation. Organisational learning focused originally on the practice of five cor...

Tuesday, February 24, 2009. Hotel Booking System Review. A few weeks a go I posted a shout out to Ed Sansbury who is in the process of developing a cutting edge hotel booking system. I have had the privilege of viewing his software during its infancy (I believe it to be less that fifty per cent complete) and am impressed with the options section, which has clearly marked tabs allowing users to customize the system for their own requirements. Good luck with the continued development, Ed! However, I was no...

My first supporting argument for the statement above (from David H. Maister’s report, “Why (Most) Training Is Useless: Start Developing Skills; Stop WASTING Time") is based upon Systems Thinking. Systems are usually made up of many smaller systems, or subsystems. Each subsystem has its...
