A strange question you might think, but sometimes we all tick to the same habitual beat without trying something different. That’s why Gavin and Wendie at Think Training & Development take a practical approach to their personal and management development programmes.
Trainees from more than 10 countries are turning to Think for a breath of fresh air and pragmatic approach to communication and personal development training. Whilst the media scaremonger with news of job cuts, company closures, and reduced salaries, many forward thinking companies realise that at times like this, you need your staff to be firing on all cylinders. By investing in communication skills, leadership programmes and personal development training, companies can increase staff morale and reap the rewards through increased energy, motivation and productivity.
Gavin uses an approach that stimulates thought and debate amongst his trainees. That’s where the banana story comes from. Gavin says, “If what you’re doing is working really well, keep doing it. If it’s not working, try something different. Try turning your banana round and opening it the other way, it might be easier. Most people I meet aren’t quite getting the result they want, but they keep trying the same thing and are confused about why it’s not working.”
This is just one of the techniques Gavin and Wendie use in their training sessions. There are a range of courses on offer, including training in Myers Briggs personality types; the world renowned, psychological tool to help you understand yourself and others and bring about improved performance. There are also communication, leadership, team skills, advanced sales & presentation skills and executive coaching courses. The new website has free podcasts on coaching, motivation and…how do you open your banana? Over the coming months the audio section will be expanded to cover a full range of simple to use and easy to apply personal and management training sessions.
