Virtual Tough Training – Designing an Extraordinary People Development System – November ’21 – VIDEO
The ONLY path to true excellence in Quality and economic performance is through the development of human beings. We are humans, working in human organizations, serving humans—so People Development must become the organization’s #1 strategic direction. In this Tough Training, Andrew moves far beyond conventional “training” to explore how great organizations intentionally develop Confidence, Self-Control, Accountability, Professional Knowledge, Teaching ability, Meaning, Purpose, and the FEELING of progress.
This is about creating the conditions for people to become more than they were when they arrived. Andrew examines the complete People Development System—from Attraction and Selection through Teaching, Standards, Accountability, Compensation, Leadership, and Retention—while going DEEP into the inner work of human development itself. The goal is not merely better employees. It is stronger, happier, more Conscious human beings capable of creating WORLD-CLASS experiences for patients, families, and each other.
