The Missing Link in Training: Why It is So Important?

Eleven Ways to Build It Into Your Training - Easily and Instantly!

 All of us want our training to have impact - yet virtually all Train the Trainer and Instructional Design processes ignore this critical missing link. In this fast-paced, content-rich session you'll not only discover what the missing link is (and say to yourself, "Of course!!"), but also explore eleven ways to make this link "come alive" in your training sessions.

About the Speaker:
Bob Pike has well earned his reputation as "the trainer's trainer." He's been a trainer since 1969 and is most well-known as editor of the Creative Training Techniques Newsletter, published in the US by the publisher of Training magazine, Lakewood Publications. He still personally delivers training keynote addresses and consulting value over 150 days each year.

You may have experienced Bob's train-the-trainer sessions at the national American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) conferences each year since 1977, where he uses interactive techniques for groups as large as 2,500 people! Bob has been active in ASTD since 1972 and has served on their national Board of Directors, three national conference design committees, and as the Director of Special Interest Groups. Bob is often a featured speaker at ASTD Chapter meetings and workshops.

The new edition of the Creative Training Techniques Handbook (3rd Edition), by Bob Pike, is a best-seller with over 100,000 combined copies of all editions in print. He has written or edited over 20 books (including 50 Creative Closers and One-on-One Training), seminars, and training videos.
