Brian Kaskavalciyan argues that untrained workers cost more than training them. An untrained workforce creates daily losses through mistakes, wasted materials, callbacks, and customer dissatisfaction. Leading companies invest in training because skilled employees perform better and generate profit.
The cost of ignoring training and development for your team is way higher than the cost of doing it. When you don't train, you get mistakes, wasted materials, callbacks, unhappy customers, and frustrated employees who quit. That's real money bleeding out of your business every single day. Contractors think training is expensive. What's expensive is running a team that's unskilled and unmotivated. The best companies invest in developing their people because trained employees don't just do the job better, they produce profit. Ignore training and you're paying for it whether you realize it or not.
