Is Your Company Doing Training Wrong?

With the better part of two decades of training and development under my belt, I've learned a few things about it. For instance, I know that:

  1. The goal of training should be new skills or behavior modification; if it's about information it's called teaching.
  2. Typically, the most effective training is also fun.
  3. The credibility, demeanor, and presence of a trainer matters. A lot.
  4. Great training provides behaviors and skills and confirms that people can translate those things into action.
  5. Training, by itself--without reinforcement and follow-up--is nearly worthless.
  6. Most companies don't understand #5.
Training is not an event, it is a process. The training session is the beginning of that process. Here's why.

Imagine visiting a new city. You need to find a restaurant where you and a friend will reconnect. You ask the hotel clerk for directions and he tells you how to get there, turn by turn. You understood everything he said, and could visualize each step. But could you actually get to the restaurant?

Now imagine that the desk clerk asked you to write each step down. Would that help? Now imagine that, after you wrote everything down, the clerk asked you to repeat it all back. How’s your confidence level now?

All this stuff is covered in detail in Bloom’s Taxonomy of Cognitive Levels, which recognizes that there are differences between understanding something, being able to apply it, and then being able to act on it.

When companies ask for “training,” what they often mean is, “Get everyone in a room and tell them what they need to know.” That’s unfortunate because this only sets people up to fail. It’s giving them directions, onceand quickly, asking them if they have any questions about a process they have yet to walk through, and then setting them free.

Effective training, on the other hand, recognizes that that classroom time is just the beginning. It can serve as a foundation, and it allows you to say things like, “Remember when we talked about . . .” but it really is just the start.

The entire process should include these five steps:
  1. Explanation and/or exhibition
  2. Confirmation through questions
  3. Demonstration of ability
  4. Lather, rinse, repeat (as necessary)
  5. Follow-through

That last step, Follow-through, could include objective measurements (KPIs) that prove ability or compliance, or it could be old fashioned observation. Either way, it shouldn’t be skipped because new behaviors typically require old behaviors to change, and that doesn’t happen quickly, easily, or automatically.

I applaud any company for recognizing the value of training, but all involved must also understand that it’s is a multi-step process. I don’t recommend training without a commitment to all five steps for the same reason I don’t recommend merely telling someone how to perform an appendectomy. First you learn, then you practice, then you get it.

How to Become a Great Trainer?

4/15/2014

0 Comments

 
Picture
Once or several times in our lives, we have been asked to be in front of a group of people to train them a skill, make them know and understand a new procedure, teach them a new system, or coach them a new role.


If there is only one thing you want to learn to become a great trainer, this quote from Erik Barker would help a lot:

"'Our brains evolved to learn by doing things, not by hearing about them. This is one of the reasons that, for a lot of skills, it’s much better to spend about two thirds of your time testing yourself on it rather than absorbing it. There’s a rule of two thirds. If you want to, say, memorize a passage, it’s better to spend 30 percent of your time reading it, and the other 70 percent of your time testing yourself on that knowledge.

Keep the “Rule of Two-Thirds” in mind. Spend only one third of your time studying.

The other two-thirds of your time you want to be doing the activity. Practicing. Testing yourself.

Get your nose out of that book. Avoid the classroom. Whatever it is you want to be the best at, be doing it.

The closer your practice is to the real thing, the faster you learn."

---------------------------------------------



PS.  We at Six Sigma Philippines follow the "Rule of Two-Thirds" in our training programs.  We anchor our programs on "experiential learning" to make it practical and effective.  Visit our testimonials and check feedback of our participants. (CLICK HERE)

MAKATI CITY, Philippines-  Six Sigma Philippines in partnership with iAcademy School of Continuing Education, completed its Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification Program last December 14, 2013.  The program was attended by managers and professionals from diverse industries like manufacturing, BPO, Call Center, IT, Bank, Service and Insurance. 

Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Certification Program

The Lean Six Sigma Green Belt training is a hands-on workshop with emphasis on: gaining process and product knowledge with critical thinking; reducing variability and non-value added activities, and developing leaders in the organization who are focused on enhancing customer value, decreasing defect rates and wasted efforts, reducing cost and cycle time, and generating business growth and breakthrough improvements.

The Lean Six Sigma methodology is taught with a practical approach and makes use of many in- class examples, simulations, and hands-on exercises to ensure that participants have a working knowledge of the tools. 

Participants in the Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Training learn the basics of the Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control (DMAIC) methodology and tools for achieving better, faster, and lower cost products and processes. Participants who complete the Green Belt training and later wish to expand their knowledge of the DMAIC methodology and tools may continue by enrolling in the Black Belt program.

It doesn't matter how many resources you have

Six Sigma is like a big toolbox- all quality, leadership, management, statistical, change management tools and methodologies..  The main responsibility of your Six Sigma Black Belt is to diagnose the situation and know what tool/s to use in a situation to fix your processes.  If he/she doesn't know what tools to pick, that's a problem.  If you don't have a toolbox, that's a BIGGER problem.

Processes tend to fail overtime, and you need Six Sigma to reduce your process delays, defects and variations or Cost of Poor Quality.
