I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand!
Confucius
These wise words were written thousands of years ago and yet they ring just as true in our 21st century lives and evolving business endeavors. We best equip those we lead with use-it-now information, practical tools, and applicable actions. We equip them best when we facilitate them in getting their hands dirty or in actually getting up and using what we provide.
For example: In our presentation skills training or executive speech coaching programs, the quicker we get our students or clients up speaking, the better they learn and accelerate their learning curve. Consider the hundreds of thousands of Toastmasters around the world who nervously start speaking and find that their confidence and competence increases in direct relation to how often they are in front of an audience and in how well they apply the feedback received.
Becoming an effective presenter is not learned exclusively from a book or by observing others in action. It is essentially a learn-as-you-do project. Kind of like life! ����
My challenge for you is to revisit what you are doing for your own learning curve, as well as those you work with. See where you can adapt it to add more hands-on experience. How can you make it more experiential to anchor the learning and enhance the skill?
