Workplace Training

Most training works in theory. But fails when it matters. People complete the course. They understand the content. They even say it was useful. And then nothing changes. The same mistakes happen.

Instead of focusing on what people need to know, this book shows you how to design for what people need to do—especially when: the situation is unclear time is limited pressure is high and there is no time to ...

Mandatory training is everywhere. Annual compliance modules. Policy refreshers. Certification requirements. Everyone completes them. Nothing changes. People still make the wrong decisions. Critical steps are missed. Risk doesn’t go away. Because the goal was never performance. The goal was to check the box. Just Enough Training challenges that model. It introduces a simple but uncomfortable truth: Training is not successful when it is completed. It is successful when people can perform— correctly, consistently, and under real conditions.

THE MOST EXPENSIVE NO YOU'LL EVER HEAR IS YOUR OWN. You've already said it a thousand times. The raise you decided wasn't worth asking for. The pitch sitting in your Drafts folder.
