      Training That Sticks:

      The key to learning that results in meaningful behavior change is creating an interactive session that uses learning techniques that actively engage participants. To this end our sessions use storytelling, humor and movement to enhance the dissemination and assimilation of core learnings. This is in addition to leveraging some of the following tools and methods to engage learning:

      Group Discussion and Brainstorming

      Facilitated discussion to provoke thought, encourage participant contribution, share resources and stimulate learning in a safe environment.

      Method Demonstration

      Instructor demonstrates skill sets for participants to aid in understanding, to stimulate student interest and to provide a model to follow.

      Cooperative Learning

      Working in cooperative groups, gaining from each participant’s efforts creating an atmosphere of achievement.

      Individual & Small-group Activities

      Learning through self-assessment and reflection and through peer collaboration to come to great understanding through participants’ efforts.

      Role Play

      Requires active involvement of participants and provides a safe environment to test new skills.

      Case Studies

      Review actual cases that demonstrate the challenges leaders face and the choices that are made.

      Practice

      Students put to action in real-time new skill sets.

      Visuals

      Thank you, Jim for an excellent training yesterday. The flow of the class, the participation that you evoked from each person, and the content and lessons were exactly what we were looking for. Hopefully its not just the number of red cards we passed out that sets us apart from other companies. Great job, thank you. I hope we have an opportunity to work together in the future!
