You must motivate people to improve themselves; training cant be forced

From New York Times Business Day

According to Karen May of Google in this article you cant force people to improve themselves.  It must come from their own volition to have better results. Training too is not cure all to  to performance problem -  it may be that the employee does not know the process or lacks the resources etc.   Training cant be a cure all  in the area of performance.

Hence it is better that the training is recommended;  and one training does not fit all.

The best thing you can do in training is to tell the person what he does not know or what he has not been told before.

Thus are good employees born or made (born - motivated to learn.  Can you motivate someone who does not want to learn)?

Thus, you need a lot of new things in order to train someone thus this post for things that are new.
