The main cause for this is due to the lack of coaching and reinforcement in improving performance effectiveness. According to an IBM study, most training doesn't work because it has limited impact (about 90% is wasted- only 10% works). Skill acquisition requires repetition and specificity; most business people are not as professional as high level performers in other domains, in terms of their approach and discipline towards skill acquisition
