In today’s fast-paced and constantly evolving business world, it is essential for organizations to have a strong focus on training and development. “Training culture” is an environment in which an organization prioritizes and values employee learning and development. It’s a culture that encourages continuous learning and provides opportunities for employees to improve their skills, knowledge, and abilities. Implementing a training culture starts with the leadership of the organization. The first step in the right direction is for leadership to adopt the belief that employees are their biggest advocate for the organizational brand and the best investment they can make.

According to a study published in Forbes, more than half of employees (56 percent) cite supportive management as one of the most critical factors for remaining at an organization. However, half of managers have yet to receive training at their current job in critical human skills, including creating a psychologically safe workplace, setting and tracking goals and conducting a fair and effective performance review.
