Fill in the Blank

Went to a workshop in Vancouver with Altia Consuling and enjoyed their opening icebreaker.

Here is my remembrance of it.

Everyone gets a piece of paper with something written on it. Basically we are looking for a matching paper to the one we have.

My paper said:

In 1998 and then in 1997 research by Baldwin and Ford concluded that not more than ____ % training actually resulted in transfer to the job.

Introduce yourself to your partner and discuss this statement.

So I found my partner who had the answer:

10% and we talked about this for a few minutes.

It was an active, lively opening. Then the whole group debriefed a bit and the contents led to setting the scene for the workshop.
