Be honest. How many game-changing, life-altering training workshops have you attended?
Think back to the most recent training you took. Did you get what you were really looking for?
Typically, workshops and classes are painfully predictable, run-of-the-mill sessions, with instructors and attendees just going through the motions.
Not exactly the stuff that top performers like you are looking for for you ongoing professional development.
You’re worth more than that.
That’s why we created the Accelerator Series at The Rhapsody Institute.
The problem with most training.
Actually, there’s more than one problem with most professional development. Think about which of these are most familiar to you.
- Most training goes broad instead of deep. They share range principles that are intended for a general audience with little guidance on specific application.
- Most training is taught from a manual and doesn’t encourage interaction or dialogue outside the specified curriculum.
- Trainers don’t often have the hands-on experience of implementing within a business or organization. Training has a very low rate of success in application. Business training does not typically focus on how to implement what you have learned.
- Most training is rarely geared to challenge your thinking and beliefs in a transformative way. Courses focus on the classroom experience, with little or no support and follow up after. Case in point: Xerox Corporation carried out several studies on coaching. They determined that in the absence of follow-up coaching to their training classes, 87% of the skills change brought about by the program was lost.
Think of the time you spend on training that isn’t transforming how you perform. Think about the money invested in training that doesn’t result in tangible change in your organization?
How is The Rhapsody Institute different?
Our Accelerator Courses will challenge how you think, identify obstacles that are tripping you up, and show you how to create a new vision that is compelling and powerful.
You’ll leave with skills that will make an immediate, lasting & powerful change.
Our facilitators are experienced industry leaders that will help you apply changes that are specific to your organization. The facilitators are coaches, not lecturers. You will be encouraged to personally interpret the course content so that it resonates with you deeply.
We take a strategic, comprehensive approach. We build the leader to build the organization. We give you the skills you need to perform at your best.
The Accelerators are built so they can be taken individually or consecutively. Take advantage of our foundation of powerful content that is focused on your growth.
When investing in training for yourself and your team, make sure to look at your options very carefully. Not all training is created the same.
Great article and marketing piece Eric. Bill Turpin
Thanks Bill. Do you have any additional thoughts on why traditional training doesn’t work?
