- foxyv 6y agoThere are a series of useless programs designed to extract value from companies and shareholders while appearing to be valuable to the company. You have the leadership training, pointless certifications, morale building offsites, accountability consultations, and sales conferences. Personally I always look at stuff like this with a deeply skeptical eye. I suspect a lot of them are run by friends and family members of the corporate leadership that is deciding to purchase them. Either that or a group in the company has a budget for training that is "Spend or lose it."
