Training Philosophy
My purpose is not to teach but to help them learn.
When selecting consultants to help you with your learning needs, I know that you look for someone whose philosophy fit your company’s philosophy. So, what comprise my training philosophy?.
- People are the best investment. Your investments of time, energy and money can give your people encouragement, confidence, and vision as well as skills and knowledge. Training transforms people’s potentials into realities. Investing in people ensures continued success.
- Learning is about personal and organizational improvement, not a speaking or training event. Most trainers measure the success of workshops based on their amazing performances, by the number of tricks they used. I measure the success of any training program in only one way: output.
- Learning is an active process. I seldom do lecture. Lecture has its place in the training of people, but learning is much more than a one-way lecture. We best learn by doing, and by teaching what we learned. For that very reason, I make sure that people learn concepts, principles, and procedure by doing it. Again, all my training programs are learner-centered and result-oriented.
- Learning can be fun. Yes, you’ve read it right. I believe that learning should be fun. Human beings are fun (and funny!) beings. When we make learning fun, exciting and interactive, we learn more, learn faster, and remember longer.
- Learning must serve a purpose. It must serve the purpose of the company. It must serve the purpose of the employees. Conducting training for the sake of meeting your quota for training is a waste of time and energy and money. As a trainor, my purpose is to add value. How about yours?
