What is the Cost of Not Training New Managers?

It’s a Lot More than You Think! Leadership development is a long term vital business practice to almost all successful companies.  People will often use the term “leadership development” and “management training” interchangeably, however, I would like to distinguish the two and put a spotlight on new manager training and why it is so critical for employers.
