I love this quote from Henry Ford - "Time waste differs from material waste in
that there can be no salvage. The
easiest of all wastes and the hardest to correct is the waste of time, because
wasted time does not litter the floor like wasted material."
In my experience, the top time wasters in training sessions are:
-
Setup time – for projector,
accessories, etc.
-
Trainees show up without
completing prerequisites. Need to allow them time to catch up.
-
Training discussions hijacked
by ramblers – leading the discussion astray.
-
One student who is
exceptionally slow in understanding.
- Internet connection issues – for remote/web-based classes.
