Finding Greatness in Training

Too often when it comes to creating a safe environment, organizations haven't taken the time to understand and complete what must be done. To implement a worthwhile training program, it's important that you first focus on what many consider the foundation of any successful training program. One of the considerations most frequently overlooked during the development of a training program is understanding how people learn. The first step in implementing a highly effective training program is realizing that you're working with human beings. More specifically, you're working with their brains. The brain is not wired to learn skills only by listening or watching someone else perform or describe a task. Research shows that human beings learn by doing. To improve training, people need feedback. A trusted "coach" providing feedback helps the trainee build new neural circuits more quickly and correctly.
