Why is education important to your team success?

As a manager, your job is to reach or exceed certain goals. Many times those goals are sales targets, time frames or budgets. Usually, you have a team which will help you reach your goals - they become goals for the team.

At some point, you discover that your team lack some vital skills, or knowledge to reach your goal. That is when you need to put on the hat of the educator!

Another aspect is within JCI (and other organizations) where the leaders changes roles. When you give up your job to your predecessor, you need to transfer your knowledge to the new person. You need to teach him/her the important parts of the job.

There is a training under development at the very moment (with Thor-Erik) focusing on this particular side of leadership. The training will be ran for the second time at JCI Drammen next Monday, and focuses on two aspects - the adult learning process (and how it differs from that of children), and how to apply this as a leader. The training is a three hours one, giving you knowledge to start working your own skills.
