337 - From Webinar to Workshop: Rethink Corporate Training with Myriam Hadnes
About this episode
Corporate training, we all know the drill. The tonedeaf PowerPoint karaoke begins in the background, regurgitating slide content word for word, as you absentmindedly reply to an email…your mind still lingering in your last meeting.
If episode 337 can do just one thing, I hope it can save you from ever having to sit through another training session like it! After running hundreds of workshops for multinational companies, I thought it was about time I shared my secrets.
Join me, myself and I, as we explore the anatomy of engaging, co-created training sessions that not only pique curiosity, but bridge hierarchies, timezones and departments, and gets everyone out of their inbox, and back into the room. It’s time to close your tabs, stretch your bodies, and get present!
- What’s inherently wrong with corporate training – and why it’s so often a wasted opportunity
- My tips for connecting participants to the present moment, and to each other
- How to design a workshop to ensure participants retain the content and apply what they’ve learned
- How to scale training with local relevance, dynamic learning, and cultural insights at its heart
- Why naming the elephant in the room can help to overcome any awkwardness
