Hi Everyone–Vicki’s here–please type in your questions and Vicki will reply!
Hey David and others..so excited you are here and please ask any questions you might want to ask OR share YOUR brilliance?
What are thoughts of Follow Up Webinars for content absorbtion… as well as Mentor Programs
They are amazing! especially if the webinar follows the ENGAGE model and has active participation. I need boot camp btw
what are your experiences of follow up webinars? or mentor programs?
With mentor programs, often mentors TELL people what to do vs teach them…by partnering them with individuals who are superstars in the field or task the mentee is wanting to learn. The goal is to be sure the mentee is seeing the best practice, practicing it with the guidance of the mentor, and mindfully raising their level of ability.
Hi Vicki–here’s a question from the webinar: How do you celebrate when you are working with outside clients instead of conducting internal training? Is it still appropriate?
You help THEM see how much they learned by actually having them review what they heard, learned, etc.. or you can say I just want to be sure you got this and have them do a fun activity. People love learningand realizing how much they learned. A salesperson might gently recap what their thoughts were so as to be sure the customer can actually DO what will help them use the product.
Another question from the webinar: How do you teach people something that you do not personally know how to do? Any thoughts on how to approach this?
Our role is to be sure to partner them with the greatest possible teacher!! Then to reveiw what they learned and celebrate their success.
Hi Vicki, just wanted to say thanks for the webinar. Great application of adult learning principles in your training. I’m in higher ed, involved in training future scientists. It’s amazing that so many faculty members (great scientists) never learned how to teach, except via OJT. Faculty development efforts often don’t reach those who need it the most. I ordered a copy of your book by the way! 🙂 Thanks again. Wayne
Hi Wayne–So excited to hear from you. Faculty in Universities were one of my target audiences as they know so much about their content, but have never been taught to teach and are often disappointed in the student progress or innovativeness (is that a word??) The lack of interactivity is creating apathetic students AND demoralizing professors. You rock!! Please share this with as many people as you can and thanks again. Vicki
Thanks for all your energy and passion for helping people learn. If you want to send me an email directly, you can sent it to vicki.halsey@kenblanchard.com. Have a great day and keep on teaching!
