More about the workshop
"This workshop represents pure gold for trainers, coaches, facilitators and consultants!"
On the first day, you'll experience a fun, fast overview of our approach to brain-friendly learning. Blending the best of accelerated learning, neuro-linguistics, emotional intelligence and 'flow', this will provide the foundation for what's to come. We'll unpack the latest findings from neuroscience on how human beings learn best - findings which challenge some of the core presuppositions that underpin traditional training.
"I've been training and consulting for 15 years - and believed there wasn't much more I could learn. I was wrong. This workshop challenged me to think about what I'm doing in a fundamental and powerful way."
We believe that learning to manage states is the key skill for trainers in the experience economy of today. This first day includes a workshop on managing your emotional state (and influencing the states of your learners) so that you'll always have access to your own 'sizzle'! We'll challenge you to raise your own expectations of what's possible too - so that you become even more of an inspiring model for those around you.
"Stunning! I've marked it at 99.9% only because I know you'll want to Kaizen it!"
Day Two focuses on cutting-edge design, and you will be coached, using your own content, resulting in a learning experience of your choice being totally re-engineered to reflect the principles of brain-friendly learning. This 'content' could be a course, seminar or workshop, 1-1 coaching, distance learning or technology-based training. (Bring along your existing learning design and materials).
"As a training novice, I came away with loads of ideas and new skills - and perhaps as important - ten times the confidence I had before."
We'll explore multiple intelligences and how to design learning that engages learners at all levels, as well as building 'smarts' - no matter what, or who, you happen to be training. You'll understand how to design different kinds of learning differently - to engage the most appropriate memory pathways. You'll learn how to sequence learning activities in ways that embed the learning, and keep energy and focus high. You'll learn how to create an optimum learning environment - high challenge and low stress.
"Most useful train the trainer event I've experienced - combination of concepts and practical tools and techniques. The real gift for me has been to de-mystify successful learning. Thank you."
Day Three focuses on delivery and delight - developing your stand up trainer skills, facilitation and coaching skills and strategies for ensuring that the learning is embedded and applied back in the workplace.
Learning is not, in our view, about the consumption of information - it is about the creation of meaning and value. You'll grasp how to use language to open up new and exciting possibilities for the people you train or coach, and you'll feel much more confident about asking powerful questions that cut straight to the heart of the issue.
"What can I say about this approach that will do it justice? Wow! Kaizen Training remind us that the most powerful learning uses human emotions to bring about real personal change. I very much like the individualised coaching element of this approach too."
We believe in walking our talk, so don't expect lots of lectures by 'experts' hosing you with information. We'll be using the expertise, imagination and energy of the whole group to create a learning experience that will accelerate the process of moving from where you are to where you want to be.
And that's not all. Woven throughout the three days will be some 'extra treats' - carefully selected guests are coming along to facilitate short but powerful sessions on topics that will expand your skills, deepen your congruence and impact, and nourish your whole body/mind. "If there was just one course you invested in - this would be your most outstanding choice. Transformational Learning in practice. Absolutely Awesome! Do it now!" Your Coaches
