It is no secret that companies are spending less and less on training and development for employees. When budgets get tight, that is often one of the first things to get cut. You'd think that companies would realize that a better trained and educated employee is a more efficient and productive employee....but that is an argument best saved for another day.
MRO Today's Lean University has a novel approach to a day of training in what they are calling Race City U.S.A (Mooresville, North Carolina). The training day has a NASCAR theme and after the speakers and presentations, there is actually an opportunity to practice some team building exercises as a pit crew member on a real race car.
