“The only thing worse than training employees and losing them is to not train them and keep them.”

Share & Save

Meaning

This reads as a practical argument for development over false economy. It says that avoiding training to save trouble is often the costliest choice, because an unprepared team is harder to keep useful than a trained one that may leave. It lands in any workplace where managers hesitate to invest in people, then pay for that hesitation later.
