Is "Good" Enough Training Movie

Welcome to the latest installment of masterpiece employee development. Today I'd like to talk to you about the newest training movie release from Media Partners Corporation titled Is "Good" Enough? This short meeting opener revolves around a simple question: what is the price of mediocrity?

It is generally accepted that 99.9% is a good mark to shoot for when we're talking about mistakes on the job. But is that the reality? Is "good" enough? Consider for a moment what the implications of 99.9% being good enough actually amounts to (taken from the video):

-470 dictionary definitions would be misspelled.

-1,902 people would contract food borne illness every two minutes.

-44,230 prescriptions would be mislabeled every year.


My my my... That does paint a different picture, doesn't it? Of course figures like these can make things feel hopeless. Why do we even get out of bed in the morning if 99.9% isn't good enough? Well, the point here is strive for your best and not settle for mediocrity when you know you can do better.

This is an interesting movie that combines clever graphics with thoughtful statistics. The short meeting opener can be viewed with or without narration and on a continuous loop for use on a conference television or to play while people are entering your meeting room. At $295.00 it's a bargain.
