33 // Evaluating to Demonstrate Evidence of Training Value for Stakeholders with Dr. Jim Kirkpatrick

It is time to be strategic business partners. Failing to do so will likely lead to our replacement by YouTube, apps, and avatars. Using his 15 years of experience in the corporate world, including eight years as a training manager, Dr. Jim Kirkpatrick trains and consults for corporate, government, military, and humanitarian organizations around the world.
