Should training be done in-house or through contractors? What is the right answer?

Organizations say:

• In-house is better because we have control
• Outsource is better because we save staff positions

Outside suppliers say:

• In-house is better because we keep traditional clients.
• Ousource is better because it creates choice and new ideas.

This will be a lively lunchtime Town Hall, with global bestselling leadership author and successful entrepreneur John Kolm facilitating the debate and providing an entertaining hypothetical as a framework. Don’t miss the chance to be involved in the biggest debate in training, to listen to other viewpoints and to have your say!

This program covers topics in the Leadership Development track.

The ECQs covered include:

• Leading Change Competencies
• Leading People Competencies
