If your business has experienced any measurable success, then you have access to talent.  As you seek to grow that success, it is essential to tap in to the talent that got you that far.  If your business has survived any number of years, then you have access to talent.  As you seek to increase your longevity, that in-house talent may prove to be vital. The leaders in the workforce, though not trained as teachers or educators, have a lot to offer in the area of development.  As highlighted on the CLO website, leaders can be formidable in teaching and training-up new leaders.  Though it may require a little guidance, most leaders will be able to impart some valuable knowledge or experiences to their audience.  And the experience will be mutually beneficial.  Leaders may become a little less "god-like" and more attainable to the masses.  On the other hand, the masses may gain essential understanding or insight where it was lacking before.  As for the training department, this option should prove to be budget-friendly and camaraderie-building.
