Here’s Why Most Employee Training Workshops Fail

The design process has taught the operation of domestic seminars that help better work to work better with administrators and functional teams that have been operating in decades, and Stanford has been taught in the continuing investigation department.

The design thinking and innovation “course became one of the most popular classes of the department. The success of the course landed in four basic principles that set the foundation for an effective curriculum:

1. A good story said

2. Gave students freedom to be interested in

3. The better team encouraged the work

4. There was a little theater

What does this look like in practice? Let’s go in.

To tell a good story

It is not necessary to avoid the line of methodologies that I have occurred throughout my career, it really helps each element know how the other is built by the other. You should explain that a problem or design problem has become a solution that has increased the value of an organization and its customers.

Using Joseph Campbell’s time-tested story frame, use your hero, a place and incentive event. Then submit a conflict: The activity builds difficulties until a solution is reached and the hero comes to a man changing home. People trust in the stories for Millennia to feel our world and create memories, so be sure to prepare all classes as a story arc.

In a seminar, before starting the brainstorm before starting the brainstorm, I teach you to begin with the empathy and problem before starting the brainstorm, because it must fully understand its work on users and users. We start using the user as a hero, describe the problem they face, determine potential solutions and then practice to come to an inspiring conclusion. This is the key to the last element: the solution should always be tested.

Little stories along teaching also help to learn cement. Case research, storyboard techniques or scenario-based learning moments are all useful tools to strengthen training material.

Create a safe learning environment

Today’s companies tend to work with a cya (surrounding your donkey) the mentality of the most subtle institutions are attractive and top-down. The same is applied to teaching. When teaching you, you must be headed by an example. If your students are on the wrong way, there is no need for panic – it’s your work as a teacher, just to help them properly.

I wrote about psychological security before. It is a confidence that you will be punished to be confused or to speak. Part of the study is doing something wrong and corrected; However, you need to make a mistake of people to make a mistake and try themselves safely for them to try it before. Students learn by trial and error and iteration.

Some ways you can make low psychological safety, “It can be a dumb idea,” or “You can talk about it …” or “You can say … It allows people to do the same.

Another way I try to create psychological security is to meet people. Put it out of each session 15 minutes ago that if you are approaching every person, and if you are able to set approaching with each. If you can’t come to everyone in this 15 minutes, make an effort during a break. We want the teams to do this with each other, so I love modeling it.

The teammates need a safe place to think of great, brave and edges, feel comfortable without judgment. Celebrate their journey with them and get better results.

To promote better teamwork

I heard that “in large teams, not all the table, not on a light head, but the whole table.” This requires only the customer / user to learn that it is not empathy for each other. When people feel empathy to each other, they are more freely and eliminate friction.

I settled in Stanford at Stanford, Apple’s Seased Shooting in Stanford, the former senior vice-president of Industrial Design and Chief Design Officer. He spoke of how he received a good part of the discussion to work in the Apple’s better. For example, every Friday morning, one person in the design team will make breakfast for the whole team, and they took it. I thought it was bright. These little kinds of acts for the team inspired things such as weakness, interaction and gratitude – all the main elements of the building firmly.

Help the team to encourage them to do things – Although it only takes coffee, I have also determined the simple roles in people because they realize how the activity translates to real world practices. If we separate the groups for a project, an intermittator, a TimeKeeper, a writer, etc. I like to set. Balanced participation helps a lot of teamwork.

Become the largest shoumman

I believe that the best teachers are not just smart people and teachers; They are also scenic directors, live theater actors and wizards. When you combine what you know with a little show, you create the memories of people who are back to their work.

Some elements of this are very simple to apologize to avoid monotony, changing your speed, change your intensity, change your intensity and to avoid your words. It also helps to keep energy live, as a few jokes, as well as a few jokes. When the last time you saw a game or musical and think the most part of the above is the key to the fun of the story.

Other elements are more complicated as to design your classroom plan to make your classroom plan, adapt your curriculum to a class length and time to learn how to read the room. Shoubmanship does not leave.

There was a friend who was in a great exercise for the law firm. He told me that one of the speakers was always shown in a great uncle and crazy coat to surrender his lecture every day. There was nothing to do with the subject of suit and props. While crazy en-up is clearly memorable, it was not a lecture. My friend has never gone on a silly outfit.

All roads should cause fun

The integrated purpose of these four principles is to train lucky. When people have fun, they just enjoy themselves – they learn better, and remember more and apply the more things they go.

The work changes so fast. When you build products, programs or services in your workforce, market and intend to sell, new techniques, tools and methodologies need to be constantly learning. And they just get ready to learn from the training that moves them.
