Very true! lol. However, unlike the toddlers here, most new gen workers need a longer period of basic #training and #mentorship to properly (and safely) adjust to the demands of their new roles... When we toss today's new hires in the deep end, we create conditions that *will* result in counterproductive stress and increased danger to man and machines... Let's get proactive about planning our training and development *to the needs* of the new workforce. #learninganddevelopment #onlinetraining #elearning #coursecreation #taitmedia

99% of people who work in construction will tell you this. And Mike Tyson will tell you it too. What’s the one thing you can expect in construction? The unexpected. One day you might be dealing with a cadet feeling overwhelmed, a Site Manager frustrated with a Project Manager, or a subcontractor folding overnight. Each day presents new challenges that a degree alone can’t prepare you for. As Mike Tyson famously said, "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face." A university education provides essential knowledge, but it doesn’t teach you how to navigate the variables or handle the emotional dynamics on a construction site. These crucial skills are learned on-site, through real-life experience and by observing seasoned professionals. The best lessons often come from the field, not the classroom.
