When you train your employees to do things a certain way, you can expect them to do that. Chaos reigns supreme when each employee has her own way of doing things.

As an entrepreneur, it is comforting to be able to say that “***** did not happen because we always do things in  xyz manner.” Training your employees ensures a uniform way of having things done in your business.
