Make it happen in the workplace...

We find one of the most effective methods of ensuring that participants maintain the skills they learn, is to ensure that they all have an opportunity to review what they have learnt with their colleagues or manager in the days and weeks after the training.
This can be done in various ways such as:

  • ensuring all participants have an opportunity to present the benefit of the training either internally or externally
  • organise regular meetings or conference calls and discuss real client examples
  • send newsletters internally to share best practices and sucess stories

A simple approach... but highly effective!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

During last week's first session of the 12 week Dale Carnegie Course our class members were asked 'what do you expect from the trainer and the team leaders?' A resounding Acceptance came back! They awakened in me that for human beings to pour out their creativity and their not yet used infinite capacities, and to achieve the business results and outcomes they desire, a sacred space of acceptance of who we are is at the core. Who we are is already complete and perfect; our Selves are waiting for us to let it out! And the Dale Carnegie Corporation has been providing this environment for nearly 100 years!

Today, please, turn to your colleague, your customer, your boss, your CEO, your vendor, your competitor, your friend, your lover, your best friend, your spouse, your child or a new person and do one thing today: listen from nothing. Listen to them with your heart and ask them what is it like being you? And listen. This is Acceptance :)
