22 December Limits of Social Responsibility (..."do good"...)

[Paul Terlemezian]

Professional development may be classified by some as "doing good." It sounds like the right thing to do.

 

Is there a strong argument against investing in professional development? (I hope not!)

 

The investment is not likely to be sustained however if as a "by-product" of the professional development the individual does not actually perform better?

 

Does it make sense to categorize an investment as professional development without establishing a direct correlation to an increase in performance?
