Your business should have a clearly defined strategy and set of objectives that direct and drive all the decisions made especially for training decisions. Firms that plan their training process are more successful than those that do not. Most business owners want to succeed, but do not engage in training designs that promise to improve their chances of success. Why? The five reasons most often identified are:
Time - Small businesses managers find that time demands do not allow them to train employees.
Getting started - Most small business managers have not practiced training employees. The training process is unfamiliar.
Broad expertise - Managers tend to have broad expertise rather than the specialized skills needed for training and development activities.
