It's that time of year, you know, that time where if you were fortunate to have a break then you at some point will be returning to work, your job, your business your passion hopefully.So how can you return to work without feeling that holiday hangover?If you are already back at work and hating it, this message is for you.There are some really simple strategies to help you get ready to return to work or your business without feeling dread.One of the ways is to be sure you have enough rest, and you can feel like you have recharged. I don’t know about you but I reached the end of the year exhausted, fatigued from stress and really need a break, in fact day one of my 2-week break, I got sick, so sick that I couldn’t do anything, this wasn’t a coincidence I can assure you, I probably knew unconsciously that I was going to crash and burn and if I didn’t I would have kept pushing through.2023 was full of amazing opportunities, and great achievements for all and it was also one of the hardest years of my career that I had experienced in some time. You see I had a plan, it was a great plan that would change lives, not only my team's but our client's lives and ensure they can build a better future.  By December I knew I needed a break so I could come back to work fresh and achieve all the plans we have made back in 2023 for 2024/2025.Those of you that have a job and spend every day at work hating it, get a grip, or should I say a new job, you aren’t stuck so stop spending 40 hours a week doing something you hate. If that’s where you are going to stay, then start getting grateful for what you have and so on a daily basis. I am grateful for my job as it …..fill in the blanksThank you for my job while I get my side hustle off the ground.Even if you think you hate your job there are always things to be grateful for.AFFILIATE DISCLOSURE: My podcast episode notes may contain affiliate links, if you purchase something through these links you won’t pay more, however, I may receive a commission that enables me to earn a living, keep the channel going and at times purchase a nice bottle of prosecco to celebrate your awesomeness, thanks for listening.Thank you so much for your support and understanding!

Season #6, Episode #2Adult Learners and Principles that are the key to learning.Learning Face to Face will always be a desire of many adult learners.As educators we want our student to get the most from the our sessions and when we understand the Adult Learning Principles we can be more conscious about planning our session to include this and encourage others to share. It doesn't matter whether you are delivering face to face or via ZOOM you can ensure their is a high level of interaction and story telling into your session.  In this Podcast I give some personal examples and how this has been beneficial and also explain Malcolm Knowles theory on the 6 Principles. See below for his example from the internet.  Malcolm Knowles defined the term andragogy in the 1970s as ‘the art and science of helping adults learn.’Knowles identified the six principles of adult learning:1. Adults are internally motivated and self-directedAdult learners make choices relevant to their learning objectives. They also direct their learning goals with the guidance of their mentors. Students need to be given the freedom to assume responsibility for their own choices.2. Adults bring life experiences and knowledge to learning experiencesEducators encourage learners to connect past experiences with current knowledge and activities. Educators must know how to relate the sum of the learner’s experience to the current learning experiences.3. Adults are goal orientedAdult learners aim to acquire relevant and adequate knowledge and for this reason intended learning outcomes should be clearly identified. Once the learning goals have been identified, educators must align the learning activities such that these objectives are fulfilled within a certain period of time.4. Adults are relevancy orientedAdult learners benefit by relating the assigned tasks to their own learning goals. If it is clear that the activities they are engaged into, directly contribute to achieving their personal learning objectives, then they will be inspired and motivated to engage in projects and successfully complete them.5. Adults are practicalIt is very important for educators to identify appropriate ways and convert theoretical learning to practical activities. Work placement is a way for students to apply the theoretical concepts learned inside the classroom into real-life situations. Learning is assisted when appropriate ways of implementing theoretical knowledge in real life situations is made clear.6. Adult learners like to be respectedAdult learners thrive in collaborative relationships with their educators. Learners become more productive when they’re considered by their instructors as colleagues. When their contributions are acknowledged, then they are willing to put out their best work.Book picks for the monthStart with Why – Simon SenekAn Ordinary Day – Leigh SalesFollow and subscribe to our podcast;Apple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/training-assessment-professional-development/id1493101646?uo=4Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/2Zxv2pe5e66gvLdKa9wWg1?si=7EqchpPERIax8uzL92mE3A Follow us on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/trainingandassessmentPDInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/t_a_p_d/Support the show

Episode NotesSeason #6, Episode #1Are you a crappy trainerI recently spoke to a friend about her experience in her recent Training & Assessment course, it made me furious and prompted some questions to you, my listeners.Never forget this is your clients learning journey not yours!What is your delivery like? Do you know why your learners are there, take the time to get to know their motivation and remember you are there to teach skills and knowledge not talk at people.Becoming complacent with our delivery as we know the content so well that we forget that the student doesn’t know what they don’t know, and we can rush over content. Having someone sit in on a session with their student hat on so we can receive constructive feedback about our delivery, content, timing and if we are hitting the mark.

Episode NotesSeason #5, Episode #2Traps Trainers Fall IntoAs trainers we can fall into several traps, have you?Trap #1Wanting to deliver a program and spending weeks developing without going to the market and seeing the need. We can have many great programs that clients don’t want to buy, or students don’t want to attend. Knowing your target audience makes it easy to go to market and get some feedback on the need so you can develop what is needed and contextualise for greater impact.Trap #2Becoming complacent with our delivery as we know the content so well that we forget that the student doesn’t know what they don’t know, and we can rush over content.

Episode NotesSeason #4, Episode #6Accountability Works Both WaysAs a trainer and/or a manager you play a massive role in how students experience learning especially when they have previously had bad experiences in their childhood at school and in their career. Accountability is a way of keeping you on track, setting yourself up for success and delivering on what is promised in the form of quality and service. Accountability for students helps them progress and develop confidence in what they are doing and see the end is nearing and the rewards are all worth it.Setting your trainers up with accountability that they can commit to and solidify what is working and keep progressing with confidence has incredible benefits.

Workshop Activities and Icebreakers - The benefits are HUGE, let me reiterate the benefits are really huge for the people attending your workshops and also for you as the trainer. Lets start with benefits of an ICE Breaker at the start of your training session / WorkshopAs people come into the training room they can be in a frame of mind that they are here to learn and have an open mind, or they are forced to be here and therefore they are resistant to not only participating they are what we call a hostage, they were told they must be there and they don't want to have any part of it.An ice breaker can help build rapport and break down barriers especially if they are fun and involved. Ensure your ice breaker is meaningful and generates either action or communication.The benefits of activities are they keep people engaged, moving in motion and when activities get people thinking especially when their may be a little bit of competitiveness between the groups this can lead to a significantly higher level of learning and engagement. Workshop activities need to be aligned to the training and build on each stage of the session, allowing people to see the connection and want to contribute, use resources and tools that generate this, large sticky notes, white boards, other tangible items.When the activities engage people are more open to the learning and also listening to what others have to say.Support the show

As a trainer we know how important feedback is even if it makes us feel a little uncomfortable at times. As we head toward the end of the year we know that training slows down if you are in VET and even if you do non accredited training for Government Departments this also slows down. Take the time to evaluate the feedback you have received over the past 12 months and make a plan for skills development or material development, walk into 2021 ready and in a more prepared place than you have ever been.I hope this short podcast is helpful.Support the show

As a Trainer you want to make sure that you engage your learners and learning new concepts is achieved.  Group activities can at times go horribly wrong if you are not organised and don't know what the main objective is. In this podcast I talk about really simple activities to deliver in a workshop style that are engaging, create collaboration and get results that can be immediately implemented into the workplace.This training is very relevant right now as people transition back to work, trust and rapport need to be developed and communication needs to be as authentic as it has ever been.Some examples are;Tuckman's Team Development Model - Why  and how the process worksEmotions - identifying and expanding your emotional vocabularyValues - Elicit values and beliefsPerceptual positioning - Resolve conflict by identify others beliefs, behaviors and valuesBrene Brown "Dare to Lead, how she is changing the way leadership is done.Support the show

 In this 5 part series we are going to share such some really powerful tools and insights.Nathan talks to us about mindfulness, awakening your consciousness and healing. As a very successful Coach he shares his insights into the journey of self discovery and going inward to discover your true self. We openly discuss challenges in life and how if we sit with the challenge and go inside though mindfulness and meditation we can heal.  Doing the work can open up possibilities to greater wisdom, self love and self fulfillment. We discuss why it is important to practice self care and gratitude instead of seeking external stimulation that can be taken away from you. Discovering that this journey is continuous and can be the most rewarding discovery you can make.  Support the show

If you are a Coach, Mentor, Trainer and Assessor you know that its not easy to keep clients on the path to success. It's our job to support and encourage students to progress but this needs to be on their terms. Helping students realign and get back on track isn't a complicated process.I have outlined a process that is really simple to implement and I hope you find this useful.Set up the time for a sessionWelcome and check in to get acquaintedBuild rapport Outline the situation Identify the objectivesIdentify what challenges and blocks may come upAssist the student to establish resolutions for the challengesAction and AccountabilityWhen ending the session be sure to clarify all that has been agreed upon and follow up at the agreed time.Support the show
