Topic

According to TD.org article, “8 Ways to Add Purpose to Your Next Meeting,” when meetings draw employees away from day-to-day tasks but fail to reach their intended outcome, it has huge costs to the organization. All too often, this happens because meetings lack purpose or are simply boring.

Fact: The forgetting curve shows that participants forget almost 70 percent of the information they were taught in this classroom-style training just one day later.

Put those two facts together, and that’s a tough ROI to swallow, especially given the opportunity cost of lost revenue.

So how can talent development leaders breathe new life into their training and keep it from being mundane and boring? Simply put, talent development leaders need to Get Drastic and create a fresh experience for their participants.

In the seminar, Your Training MUST Be D.R.A.S.T.I.C.! Participants will learn how to drastically revamp their training strategies, so that your participants are excited, engaged and ready to execute!

Participants will learn:

  • The definition of D.R.A.S.T.I.C. as it applies to training and why you as the trainer must get drastic!
  • Tips and tricks to engage your audience and have them wanting more.
  • How to breathe new life into your training so that even you are excited to deliver it.

At the end of this sessions, participants will:

  • Breathe new life into their training and create a drastically different experience for their audience.
  • Implement new tools that will “Wow” your participants and have them wanting more.
