Hi, can anyone suggest a trainer for personality development and workplace dress code etiquette? I require it for 1 hour as a part of the school's training program. As it is for a school, I am looking for a trainer who can conduct a 1-hour session as a gesture of gratitude (free).
The school is an international school located in Mumbai.
Any suggestions/details, please.
From India, Virar

Dear P Behl,
Mr. Lakshmi Narayanan MA has hit the nail on the head. His question is logical.
You wish to develop the personalities of the international school students in Mumbai. One of the important lessons of personality development is not to take anything for free from others. This is because those who develop the product or services invest their time and other resources and expect fair returns on their investments. Paying for the worth of the product or service is the bare minimum expectation from customers in general and from the management of an international school in particular.
The school's management needs to take a lesson or two on personality development before conducting training for the students. If their personalities are not developed, then the students' personalities will never be developed, regardless of whether it is paid or free.
Thanks,
Dinesh Divekar

Dear Mr. Bhel,
My intention is not to hurt you or to degrade the institution you belong to. I primarily want to clarify it. If you had perceived the message in another way, then my apologies to you.
I'm just concerned about your inquiry for a free training session (or workshop as you term it now) for your school. Whether the session is for students or for faculty, there should be some value when someone is offering their expertise, spending time and effort for the betterment of your staff. The school management should also reciprocate with some value, honoring their expertise. How much you pay is not the criterion, but there should be some mutual exchange. Expecting free service does not sound good and looks odd. It is prudent to refer to the phrase "if the service is free, you're the product." Some beginners, to test their presentation/training skills, will use your school as a platform to enhance their public speaking skills. Ultimately, your expectations for the session will be defeated.
The quality of any service or product depends on how much we pay for it!
I hope you will perceive my thoughts in the right spirit.

It is very interesting that you expect free training for your students. I don't care who the institution is, but I would be very much interested in understanding your reasoning as to why you think someone will do it free of cost. If you were asking a parent to do it, I can understand. But why would a commercial trainer give training free of cost?
I have given free trainings (mostly awareness trainings) but only where I expect it will lead to consulting assignments, which is definitely not the case when it's in an international school.
So please enlighten me, what is the rationale and expectation.
As for your complaint about people being 'judgmental', well, if you are asking for something for free, you should expect judgment both on your institution and yourself.
