Really Knowing -- Billions Spent On Training But We Overlook The Cheapest, Easiest Way To Deepen Knowledge

In this critique of money spent on training and development, Michael Finley first explores the thinking of Hirotaka Takeuchi. Finley explores the two kinds of knowledge then reports on a Global Leadership Program that Takeuchi helped to design. Ultimately, the key is not what kind of knowledge corporations focus on nor the training program used, says Finley, citing Takeuchi. He adds that the real challenge "is to create a spiraling action that respects and digests knowledge wherever it comes from and commits it to institutional memory." Finley researches and writes about a host of topics relating to culture and change. This e-Doc is published by BrownHerron Publishing, with permission.
