Even the greatest sports stars aren’t excellent 100% of the time (but often through sheer natural talent or preparation are still OK).

It’s balderdash. It’s through the regular stuff I’ve learned what excellent looks like, and I know when to apply that level of effort and investment.

There is a school of thought that says unless everything isn’t excellent then why are we bothering with that work at all. It’s an argument, not one I’d call fair or realistic though.

I mean I try to make all my sessions memorable for the learners, but would I hold every one of them up as a shining example of a great L&D intervention? Nope.”

Cheers for saying this… if you read some peoples’ blogs you get the impression that they have *never* had a regular course that isn’t exciting, and isn’t innovative, but is necessary and does the job.
