Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. April 12, 2015. I happen to be away from home. Again! This week I have the opportunity to gather with nearly 400 others who work, largely, overseas and many of whom are engaged in varying degrees with learning and development activities. So I find myself putting the finishing touches to a presentation to support a session I’m delivering on the benefits to organisations and teams of what I have long called a.

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. Trainers are often committed to sharing what they have discovered with others. This is part of my attempt to share and reflect. The International Communication Training Institute, and its members with whom I work, are committed to enabling young leaders to serve the Church through the mass media. To do that they need the skills and abilities to train others. I’ll explore the issues that arise as I go along. Don’t believe your own publicity.

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. Learning needs analysis: a starting point for developing new leaders. April 29, 2015. A week back I presented this post as a conference presentation. It grew from some earlier thinking with a colleague, David De La Haye, who is based in Uganda. I offer it as a conversation starter…. Staff Development a Mandate. If we have responsibility for getting the maximum benefit for your organisation from limited resources, you may prefer to take a “T...

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. February 28, 2015. This week I’m preparing to deliver a two-day training event for clients. Nothing so unusual about that nor, in this context, that the client is offering the event free of charge to the participants. It shouldn’t be a problem for me – it makes no difference to my income nor are the numbers actually attending likely to drop to such a low level that the event becomes unviable. But it does trouble me. So what was going on? So now I...

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. May 28, 2016. I met with a student yesterday. As we talked we reviewed a presentation she had recently made and discussed the challenges we face when we first step forward to speak. Talking with my student friend we both identified the need to be doubly prepared for those awkwardnesses so that they don’t obscure the real purpose of helping others learn and develop. On Riding a Bicycle. April 13, 2016. Despite my initial struggles I discovered tha...

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. Archive for the 'Urban Myths' Category. It felt true…. Thursday, May 28th, 2009. Of late I’ve been fascinated to read of a number of strands of thinking in training and development that have achieved widespread acceptance as being true and yet, some investigation shows them to be at best ambiguous. These ‘urban myths’ of training come in many shapes and sizes. But each one seems to be adopted […]. Comments Off on It felt true…. Keeping Up To Date.

Training on the Move. Reflections of an itinerant trainer. Noticing can happen sometime later. May 15, 2015. I’ve been ploughing along reviewing a number of interviews I undertook in relation to some research I’m involved with. The interviews with fellow learning and development professionals are part of a process of discovering where my particular organisation has reached in its development and how we go here. Some years ago I was struck by Jennifer Moon’s book. Reflection in Learning and Development.
