What’s the Difference between Ronnie Wood and Mark Ronson?

A strange question perhaps for a blog on a training design website. And to be honest, now I’ve asked the question, I realise that there are probably many differences. Furthermore, the one I’m going to refer to may not even be accurate – it’s based on my feeling after watching both men appear on Later with Jools Holland. Clearly, both are accomplished musicians, and for both music is front and centre in their life.

It’s very catchy and just oozes class and talent. I heard that they wrote that track quite quickly when they were just ‘messing about’ in the studio together. Proof if ever it was needed that talent gets the best out of other talent. It’s exactly the same when you design a training programme. The more talented people that can get involved with it, the better the result will be. Each person inspires others and everyone raises their game, resulting in a programme that is better than any one of those (highly talented) people could create by themselves. That is why: The Bespak Management Development programme I designed last year was done so in collaboration with the internal HR team and one of my associates The Assistant Manager Development Programme for Johnson Cleaners was designed with input from the Head of Operations and…
