Unlock the Distinction Between Training and Development

In today's fast-paced and ever-evolving business landscape, understanding the distinction between training and development is crucial for achieving sustainable success. Over my 25 years in the seminar and training industry, I’ve had the honor of working alongside some of the most influential figures in personal and professional growth, including Joseph McClendon III, Anthony Robbins, and Chet Holmes. Through these experiences, I’ve recognized a fundamental difference between two concepts often used interchangeably: training and development.

Training: Refining What You Already Know

Training is typically targeted at individuals who already possess a foundational understanding of a particular skill or subject matter. Training aims to hone these existing skills, making them sharper, more efficient, and more effective. It’s about polishing what’s already there and refining the abilities of those who have a solid grasp of the fundamentals. For example, someone who has been in sales for years may undergo sales training to sharpen their techniques, update their knowledge on new strategies, or adapt to changes in the market.

While training is essential, it has its limitations. It works best for those who already have a certain level of competence. But what about those who are just starting, those who need to build a foundation before they can refine it? That’s where development comes into play.

Development: Building for Long-Term Success

Development, on the other hand, is a comprehensive process aimed at fostering growth and improvement from the ground up. It’s about building new skills, cultivating new mindsets, and unlocking potential that may have been previously untapped. Development programs are designed to support individuals in their journey of continuous learning, helping them not only acquire new knowledge but also apply it in ways that lead to long-term success.

In my years of experience, I’ve observed that over 80% of individuals in any given organization need development rather than training. They require guidance, support, and the right resources to grow into their roles, advance in their careers, and contribute meaningfully to their organizations. Development is about creating a solid foundation upon which future skills can be built and refined through subsequent training.
