It notes that the current training program has high costs due to multiple facilities with differing capacities. A cost-benefit analysis was conducted to evaluate scenarios.

    1. What are the pros and cons of current employee training at Deloitte?

    training costs led Eisele and the team to conduct a cost–benefit analysis
    on the different scenarios. Jack Russi, Deloitte managing partner in charge of corporate
    development. superior education, training, and leadership skills to practitioners were not
    provided. Multiple facilities lead to rising costs. No collective memory. Capicity at different
    facilities were different.

    2. Evaluate the decision-making process involved in the establishment of the


    university. 

    Bad decisions are made in organisations every day. Whether it’s squishy goals,
    competing interests, bad assumptions, not enough time, insufficient information, or
    simply not enough talent, there are countless ways to miss the mark. On some level,
    making bad decisions is unavoidable. No one can always be right. But leading
    organisations tend to make fewer bad decisions, especially when it comes to those that
    can drive or destroy significant value – decisions that matter. Leading organisations
    understand that decision making is a distributed function involving lots of different
    people throughout the organizational hierarchy.

    3. What should be done to ensure the success of the university?


    Unconvinced partners, principals, and directors needed to be convinced.
    Senior staff members, partners, principals, and directors would have to do some
    of the teaching but would also need to stay focused on their clients and sales goals
    Some partners, principals, and directors argued that if Deloitte were to go
    forward with the facility, they’d need assurances—especially in light of the economic
    collapse—that the property could be resold.

    Ultimately, it was practice area leaders who decided where to hold their meetings.
    Should Deloitte require meetings to be held at Deloitte University, or should it rely on the
    passion of the partners, principals, and directors who believed in the facility to fill its capacity

    Deloitte had no experience in running a hotel or conference center, and


    some partners, principals, and directors were skeptical of Deloitte’s decision not to partner
    with an established hotel chain.

    Salzberg was just eight years away from Deloitte’s mandatory retirement age
    and could move on to a global role with DTTL before then. Yet most partners, principals,
    directors, and board members admitted that his passion for Deloitte University propelled the
    project
