For me, the <underline>key ingredients</underline> of the cake are:

1. EFFECTIVE TRAINERS WHO ARE TRAINED IN THE FUNDAMENTALS OF
CRM/HF/TRAINEE- CENTRED LEARNING. (THEIR IDEAS AND ATTITUDES WILL GO
FORTH AND MULTIPLY)

2. AN EFFECTIVE CRM PROGRAMME AND TRAINERS, WITH RECURRENT CRM
TRAINING.

3. A SYSTEM WHICH SUPPORTS THESE TRAINERS THROUGH:

- MEASUREMENT OF HUMAN FACTORS (BEHAVIORAL MARKERS)

- FEEDBACK & ANALYSIS OF RESULTS (TRAINEE PERSPECTIVE + MARKERS)

- A COMPANY CULTURE OF HF AWARENESS, AND MINIMUM "BLAME".


4. HARD WORK AND DETERMINATION - "VINCIT PERCEVERANTIA".
