Guest speaker, associate professor at Louisiana State University in the United States of America, Priscilla Allen,talked about the return on investment and leadership training.

She reiterated the importance of maximising human capital and relationships in the workplace to get betterresults.

“Primarily the people here train and supervise so it’s about identifying strengths in their teams and gaps tomake them stronger.

“I hope that people see how training and in삀uencing and advancing skills is better for the organisation, so thatFiji can be better than it already is,” Ms Allen said.

The conference, which is the second of its kind to be organised and hosted by the NTPC for the industrystakeholders, will end today.
