problem the fictional company presented in my paper was having. The company needed to
have newly hired employees proficient at their jobs faster than the face-to-face classes were
allowing and they needed to do it while reducing the cost of travel of all new hires to the
company headquarters and the cost of the employees being away from their jobs. The solution of

by the manager or a tenured coach was backed by the research found and was discussed at length
in this paper.
