Listen "Virtual Training in Today's Most In Demand Skills for Individuals and Organizations"
Episode Synopsis
How much do you invest in training your employees, and how
much should you allocate? According to the Association for Talent Development's
2023 State of the Industry report, organizations spent an average of $1,220 per
employee on training, which is slightly less than the previous year.
Some employees view training primarily as a reward and
assess it based on their satisfaction rather than its impact on their
performance or work output. Similarly, some managers treat training as a
supplement or substitute for performance feedback and do not adequately
evaluate its outcomes.
In 2023, companies spent an average of $954 per learner on
training, which includes methodologies like virtual reality (VR) and other
technologies. The amount spent on training varies by company size; typically,
small companies invest more while large companies spend less.
Great leaders are not born; they are continuously evolving.
They consistently work on improving themselves, their organizations, and their
leadership skills.
Damon Lembi, a two-time bestselling author, host of The
Learn-It-All Podcast, and CEO of Learnit—a live learning platform that has
upskilled over 2 million individuals—brings an athlete's perspective to
leadership drawn from his background in baseball. Through his experiences,
Damon has gained valuable insights into fostering organizational growth,
effective leadership development, and the reasons learn-it-all companies
consistently outshine their competitors. His experiences in baseball inform his
informal mentoring of executives. He has consolidated these hard-earned
insights into his bestselling book, "The Learn-It-All Leader: Mindset,
Traits, and Tools," along with keynote speeches on leadership,
entrepreneurship, and lifelong learning.
When he's not working, Damon enjoys making memories with his
family, reading, attending live music events, watching movies and baseball
games, and walking in Sausalito with his companion, Pablo the Puggle.
