Rethink Your Budget
2008-03-10 15:12:00 Rethink Your Budget http://www.trainingmag.com/ February 06, 2008 Progressive companies focus on maximizing the value received, and implement nontraditional, strategic cost savings techniques to leverage training budgets.

Technical Development: Engineering the Engineers by Garry Kranz
2008-03-02 03:16:00 Engineering the Engineers Rolls-Royce Corp. recruits and employs some of the brightest engineering minds in the world. Constantly challenging them to acquire even more knowledge is a linchpin of its competitive strategy.By Garry Kranzn the production floor at Rolls-Royce Corp.’s Indianapolis plant are some of the world’s most advanced engine-propulsion systems. In one way or another, most of the 4,500 people who work here help engineer and build turbines that are at once more compact and more powerful than the current state of the art. The high-tech engines contribute a sizable share of the $4 billion in North American revenue posted by Rolls-Royce Group, the Indianapolis firm’s British parent. And the turbines also are a manifestation of the company’s chief assets: innovation and know-how that is nurtured and preserved by employees. The company sustains its finely honed competitive edge by viewing training as indistinguishable from recruiting and hiring, says Michael Trus... More About: Technical , Engineering , Development
