Sports and firm 2
In my previous
entry began to criticize the lack of nuances when comparing the world of sports, usually the world of professional sports and the business world. In this case, continuing the subject, I will highlight an item which, although obvious, it seems to me to compare both, and in comparison is only word: training. Monday, February 28, 2011
What Does Air In Your Bladder Mean?
All sports, professional or not, share a common concept: it is impossible to improve performance without training. Moreover, even states with some frequency, how the "stars" of many sports usually agree on one feature: the intensity and seriousness with which they train.
Unfortunately, this idea has permeated in the business world. The entrenamimento is considered a necessary evil. Normally the "most qualified" are those where most trusted, but those who do not matter. Managers, the "stars" seldom train, lest they learn something or have to think / practice on something. No time to waste. So much is said that the best training that obtained in the workplace, and indeed, if there is no learning application. But first you must observe and internalized, so after applying to assess the consequences of doing one thing or another. That is, you have to train to learn and you have to train to improve.
Now that fills us mouth with the importance of training and development for the future I would like to see companies apply it. No pointing to the thousands of hours of training provided, no financial investment, often heavily subsidized, made, if not giving the value they say they have. Some ideas: raising the level of responsibility of education departments with a consequent increase in its budget, invest in integrated learning spaces, and virtual, not just sign up for the fashion of corporate universities, the incentives associated with learning objectives the manager and his team, look at what the athletes.
Sport offers a good example, but in this case it seems that we do not want to fix it.
