Dear ladies and gentlemen, Imagine a seminar with six participants
- How many participants do you think apply the new knowhow successfully?
- How many participants try and fail?
- And how many participants do not even try?
Out of six participants of a seminar…
…only one participant applies the new knowhow successfully.
…four participants try but fail.
…one participant does not even try.*
