3. Allocate appropriate resources.

4. Train employees and change the culture.

5. Implement the plan reasonably.

6. Coordinate efforts throughout the organization.

7. Publicize results.

8. Provide rewards and tie results to bonuses and promotions.

9. Be patient. Have a long-term view.

  • Did I deliver the training in a logical and consistent manner?
  • Was the training provided in a good learning environment?
  • Do we tend to know our subject so well that we have a hard time conveying our message to others?

I challenge everyone to think about these statements for just a minute.
