If you don't know what I meant by linchpin, read Seth Godin's book.
In my IT times, there was a day that I was finger pointed (for the Nth time) of not providing enough training for new comers. (Me, the sole IT for a 30 people office).
I setup an internal server with moodle (the learning platform),
created a whole course in everything IT for the company, and of course, <buhaha>exams</buhaha>.
The failure rates and the time to pass were [un?]surprisingly high.
Due to the revolution I had let it be more as an optative learning tool instead of mandatory training.
At least I got to say: -"see?" to management. And I quit after setting up my own little operation.
