View in Browser | SEPTEMBER 2021 Don’t Stigmatize Your Learners When Blanchard’s vice president of applied learning, Dr. Vicki Halsey, asks senior leaders what percent of their people are peak performers, they say only about 10%. Halsey says part of the problem is that leaders spend more time evaluating talent than they do developing it. “So that means nine out of ten people are not necessarily successful on the different tasks you need your people to do.

We need to find a way to keep our best talent growing and get our new talent up to speed quickly.” Halsey’s recommendation? Bake learning and development into your culture. | |
