Planning is absolutely fundamental. Many professionals don't realize it, but in an ideal world, all the company's day-to-day plans should be aligned with the “master planning”, which is the budget. When a company begins the plan to open a new store or a new branch, ideally this fact should already be planned in the strategic budget. We should plan even our day. Of course, surprises and unexpected facts will arise. Let's look at the political environment in Brazil at the moment or the economic situation in the country, especially in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. These are unexpected events, which, when they happen, need to be addressed. Those who plan in advance are always more prepared for life's adverse events than those who are not.

Further, in between the training, one can have a 15 - 30 mins pause wherein the team can ask questions and get the queries clarified. This helps team members to open up and share their thoughts.

Training encourages employees to produce better results and act as a motivating catalyst.

Michael, a seasoned accountant, felt frustrated and overwhelmed. To help, we paired him with Rosie, a tech-savvy colleague.

Feedback helps us to know whether the training has achieved the required objective and also helps improve or make it better in the future trainings.

No veo aportes de buen nivel, en los temas. 1. En el mundo real la decision de compra (buena o mala) se toma a nivel directivo. 2. La metodologuia a aplicar depende del tama?o y procesos de negocios de la empresa especifica. 3. Por ultimo... "cuidado con los que tienen un martillo, pues ven todo en forma de clavos". Y "Para que aplicar procesos simples, si los puedes hacer complicados" tener presente aspectos como este, permitira procesos de implementacion, sabios, eficentes y eficases. Si a todo esto agregas, la contratacion de consultores que hayan logrado "el estado del arte" en su profesion. Lo contrario son jovenes que con un diploma han aprendido a ense?arte "como empujar la tecla", pero esos son solo implantadores.
