Does this sound familiar? A vacancy becomes suddenly open and there is mad scrabble to fill it. Job postings are run, interviews are held, and suddenly a new employee is chosen to "join the ranks of the organization". But wait... WHO's training them?

It seems so strange.... sports teams invest thousands of dollars to ensure their coaches and trainers have the latest techniques on how to inspire, teach, motivate, and improve the skills of their athletes. Yet over and over I watch as organizations expect "veteran" employees to suddenly become trainers for new hires, passing onto to them the skills and techniques required to successfully perform a fundamental position in your business.... and yet they receive little to no training on how to do it.
This decision can have lasting and dramatically negative impacts on the success of your business and overall morale of your employees. It's time to start properly investing in those we depend on to train the next generation of our employees.

Believe it or not each time your team has a disagreement, it offers them an opportunity for growth. The hard part is allowing the growth to take place.
Think back to the last time your team had an argument.  Could you feel the tension increasing? Did people start voicing their positions, arguing their points, stop really listening to each other, and maybe even get louder in their attempt to be heard? What was your reaction as their team leader?
