Measuring the Effectiveness of Your Training In this session, we discussed the framework needed to create a measurement strategy that will determine the effectiveness of your training. Millions of dollars are being invested in training each year. But how are organizations measuring the effectiveness of their training, especially soft skills training like sales? At Richardson, Eileen Krantz, Vice President of Client Analytics, has discovered that some clients believe that there is just an inherent value in providing quality sales training, others are more concerned with just aligning training with the sales strategy, and some develop a comprehensive measurement strategy to isolate the financial return on their investment. Creating the best measurement strategy means more than just providing data to your executive teams to prove that the training was valuable. A measurement strategy should help you determine if the training itself is helping your teams to become the best they can be. It should help you determine the effectiveness of each training component and what improvements you can make to the training to achieve the highest returns on investment. In this webinar, Eileen Krantz, Vice President of Client Analytics at Richardson discussed: A framework to create a measurement strategy before your training begins How learning mastery and observed behavior change can deliver the data that you need to understand the behaviors of your sales organization and to correlate them with the KPIs A case study that shows how a Fortune 500 Company used measurement strategies to improve their training programs Watch now!
