Additional Information

  • Learn by doing

The methods have an advantage over discussion-based or instructional approaches. The memory of a discussion can easily be lost. The experience of doing is harder to forget.

  • More personal

The learning is more immediate and personally meaningful. We are provided with a test-bed to explore our best and worst presentation skills in a safe but challenging laboratory context

  • Active and spontaneous

Participants actively practise the essential social skills of co-operation, trust, tolerance, self-control and problem-solving, among other essential skills. These are not merely discussed as abstract concepts, but are made tangible and immediate

  • Enables practice

This method allows the participant to practice and test new skills and new roles – and self reflection.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!
