In their 2014 Corporate Learning Factbook, Bersin states that US spending on corporate training grew by 15% in 2013 to over $70 Billion in the US.

During this session, Alan will explore how leaders inadvertently sabotage employee performance and will introduce the 5 phases of the Results Framework, a roadmap for achieving optimal organizational performance that is driven by business goals.
