<description><![CDATA[Yes, absolutely, this happens each time we introduce disruptive technology and innovative approaches: an role-play instead of a traditional instructor-led course, a mobile Performance Support Tool instead of e-learning in the LMS. We attempt to overcome most objections through communications (1 minute leadership video), or testimonials from participants who completed the pilot sessions.]]></description>
