How does it work?
The secret of YOUR success
Leaving aside the hundreds of hours of research, training & book reading that goes in to the delivery, the simple answer is follow-up.
The greatest training material delivered by the most adept workshop facilitator will just seep away in a matter of weeks. Typically adults will retain as much as 20% of what they learnt - and that's on a good day! With follow-up coaching to discuss progress, review materials & techniques and talk through practise, the retention of those skills soars to 85+%.
It's a model that, love it or hate it, we endured at school. We were taught. We practised in class and at home. We reviewed and repractised until we reached a level of competence. Imagine taking our exams if we'd attended a one day workshop on the topics three months earlier and hadn't had the time to do any revision. If we want to improve we need a learning framework that ensures the material is going to stick. Follow-up makes it stick.
