What’s the difference between training and development?

What’s the difference between training and development?

Training to meet customer expectations:

  • Trainers
  • Procedures
  • Manuals
  • Objective evaluations
  • Compliance

Development to exceed customer expectations:

  • Leaders
  • No procedures
  • No manuals
  • Subjective evaluation
  • Commitment

We lump these two entirely different tools together as “Training and Development”.

Why is that dangerous?

Lost opportunity?

Easy opportunity?

Lost opportunity.

Which team will win, a well-trained and compliant team or an amazingly developed and committed team?
