Previously we have looked at trends listed in a SHRM report, and here is another one that will have interesting ramifications for your future projects: “Increased awareness of organization development through evaluation of human performance metrics and the correspond­ing impact on business outcomes.”  
 
That’s a mouthful, but the interesting ramification is that the use of metrics will allow training to show a financial return – or not. If training programs do not improve organizational development, then metrics will not improve, and then training that is badly designed or badly delivered (or even unnecessary) will be identified and dealt with. It is high time this finally happens, because too much training has been suffering from these three characteristics for too long. Bad training has wasted way more time on your projects than you realize.
