Why It's Useful

Training is often time-consuming to create, hard to keep updated, or just… not that effective. This workbook makes it easier to:

  • Define clear learning goals

  • Avoid wasting time on content that doesn’t matter

  • Create short lessons your team can absorb and apply

Developed for leaders and managers at mission-driven organizations, this tool is perfect for anyone wearing the “trainer” hat (even if it’s not in your job title).
