Training and learning organizations today play an active role in contributing to the bottom line of any organization by aligning their objectives to the immediate business objectives. This provides a solid ground for cost justification and encourages businesses to place training groups right where they should be, at the heart of a growing, thriving, learning culture. These are the keys to innovation and long term sustainability – and it is both an opportunity for trainers and learning developers to play a more significant role in the health and life of a business, and an opportunity for businesses to better leverage their personnel.
