I work in the training center of a large corporation. I am enrolled in a
masters program in organizational learning and am trying to expand my
horizons as a trainer. For a long time now, I have been concerned about
the impact of lack of time (or perceived lack of time) on the learning
organization. The ramifications seem vast and circular: too little true
communication and idea-sharing throughout the company, leading to more
stress and distress, in turn causing less learning and growth for all. We
offer a few time management courses as a bandaid, but I know these reach
only a small percentage of the population and of those who
participate,maybe 30% truly implement and continue to use what they learn.
I'd be interested to know how this issue is being addressed in your
organization. Thanks.
