How Can We Make This Growth-Oriented Applied Learning Program More Effective Together?

Dear all,

This is part of a supervisory-level management development program kit that I've conceptualized and am on the road to construct. This is partially done, and as it reaches completion, I would go ahead and share it. The word GOAL is an acronym and stands for Growth-Oriented Applied Learning. Though not patented by my organization, it stands for the training umbrella that we have started. You may go ahead and use this participant's manual. I would just request if you can drop an email at steney.idicala@rediffmail.com along with at least one suggestion to make it effective.

As and when the presenter's kit becomes ready, I shall share that too.

Dear Arigato,

Great job! One suggestion: you could consider introducing some exercises where participants get involved by taking part in an activity. For example, call one person "A" and make him face the wall. Give him a drawing (any) and ask all other participants to follow the instructions given by A to replicate the drawing on a blank sheet of paper. The other participants cannot communicate with A (feedback loop is absent). It's hilarious to see the funny figures made by everyone. If A gave wrong instructions, then everyone should have made the same wrong figure. However, everyone makes a figure based on what they perceive he wants to communicate. This exercise can help derive insights into perceptions, reference points, feedback, interpretations, etc. The trainer can derive most of the learnings you have specified in the workbook on the topic of communication.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

This is good work... really very good handout for the participants, but it is incomplete. Expecting a complete version soon.
