HELP!! Another Training Seminar - How do I keep their attention?

                                                                                         

If you are a manager in charge of training at an office, or really any other type of work environment, then you know the pain Michael Scott (of The Office) is in as he tries to engage his employees’ attention in yet another mandatory training seminar. Whether or not the material itself is interesting or worthwhile, managers seem to have a great deal of trouble in making sure that employees stay with the presentation, let alone retain the information that is laid out.

For years, management has tried to overcome the mental block that almost comes naturally to employees within the training seminar environment. The Information Age has perhaps allowed management to come up with a more effective engagement and retention system than ever before by implementing the same technology which people find engaging in their recreation time: two way wireless technology.

By using this technology, you will allow employees to become more than just listeners at a training seminar; they can become a part of the learning process themselves. By using the technology as training materials, you will be able to:

Engage those in attendance through participation

Help them retain the information presented through a series of well thought out activities

One of the best things about this technology is that because it is based on the same wireless communications used in sports bars, pubs, and other social gathering places all over the world, it can allow employees to forget that they are at work. Instead, they could just as easily be participating in one of their favourite Friday night sports or trivia games.

Wireless technology and its implementation in engaging employees during seminars has a proven track record among some of the biggest companies on the planet today, including IBM and Canon. The simple fact of the matter is that people like to be a part of the learning process, and tend to learn much better when they can take part. Two way wireless technology lets them do so within an environment that leaves the training itself wide open to the management team, who can adapt the options according to the training needs.

There is no need for trainers or employees to feel dread at the prospect of another training seminar. Stir up the seminar, and the thought process, by creating a fun and interactive environment that will ensure the very best learning outcome possible.
