Yet most of it doesn't change anything. Why? Because most training educates the mind but never moves behavior. In this episode of The Leadership Sandbox , Tammy J. Bond breaks down why leadership training so often fails in organizations — even when the content is excellent. You'll learn: • Why training transfer rarely turns into behavior change • How leadership modeling determines whether training sticks • Why off-the-shelf leadership programs rarely solve real problems • The difference between knowledge and behavioral reinforcement • What leaders must do if they want training to actually work If the behaviors in your workplace haven't changed after the training ended, this episode will explain exactly why.
