Relationships in your Workshop!

Relationships are the foundation to a successful workshop. Join your peers to discuss how we can make the most of relationships in your workshops. How can we break the ice and insure our workshops are a quality place to learn? How do you accommodate individual needs and develop one – one relationships?

Emotions in Your Workshops

Learning depends on emotions, how we respond to these can make or break not only a discussion but also a student's desire to be a part of the group. When emotions run wild a very important relationship can break which can distract from a students ability to learn.

Challenges in Your Workshops

Have you ever taught at a workshop with the “know it all?” What about the participant who is “only there for the hours?”
How can you engage the quiet participant? Come and share your ideas and learn from others how to handle these tricky trainer challenges.
