Here is the statistic that knocked me over. Right after a training class, employees apply about 62% of what they just learned. Six months later, that number drops to 44%. After one full year, only 34% is still in use. WHAT?! I am sorry, but that one shook me. Companies invest in training. Schools build entire curriculums. Parents pay for tutors and camps and music lessons. Coaches design programs. And after a year, only about a third of it is still showing up in behavior?
