Hello All,
Just wanted to share an Outbound Training Experience.
We were asked by a corporate in Mumbai to conduct a 1 day Outbound Training program for a group of 130 people. All Together. :)
I thought of posting this as a quick case study on large group management:
Challenges:
1. Limited Time frame - Just 8 Hours
2. Extremely Large Group
3. Well defined Learning Objectives - Listening Skills, Process and System orientation and Fun :)
4. Seniors and Middle Management with high expectations
Challenges Overcome:
1. Meticulous Planning - We all planned the event for almost 2-3 days, selecting team building activities which would create an Impact.
2. The venue and the initial group formations and 1 day prior preparation of activities were focused on and the efforts paid as the day organized right at the beginning. Remember, this step is critical for a smooth event.
2. The group dynamics were well studied. There is a complete diff between activities for youngsters and seniors.
3. Finally very strict control was required on the training day. Although the corporate group was extremely co-operative, yet the group had to be tightly managed because of its sheer size.
Results:
Well, Prashant (the Lead trainer of PraMaz Outbound) with 2 associates conducted the whole thing and I am happy to happy to say that the day went wonderfully well, with very good reviews.
Although we had to send Prashant for a day off after that. :)
Just Sharing it. Hope it would be useful for the young trainers out there.
Thanks for reading. Bye.
