The employee training experience is often lackluster. The result is a modest increase in skill at best, and at worst a forgotten experience. This means someone was able to check a box; wasted time and resources, but done. There are tactics that give the training experience they deserve, and expect. This means that as the facilitator you get the experience you want, and finally have your audience take it as seriously as you do. 

Conley and Zigarmi say it perfectly, "Every day the spirits of millions of people die at the front door of their workplace."
