“I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.”
Albert Einstein
When I read this quote by Einstein it struck me that he could be talking about me. Now, let me be clear that I am not putting myself in the same category as Albert Einstein. My curiosity however, is what got me interested in training and has kept me passionately interested for the last 25 years.
I was, and still am, curious about:
- How we can deliver training in a more effective manner.
- How we can harness the power of the mind through language, images and imagery.
- How we can set officers up for success through effective training.
- How we can conduct more effective debriefings.
- How can we more effectively use videos in training.
- How do we most effectively engage the introverts in the class.
- How do we use PowerPoint more effectively.
- How do we tell better stories.
- How do we ask better questions.
- How we can more effectively engage the learners in our classes.
- How can we create a culture of leadership.
I have no special skills or talents. I am however passionately curious and have striven to surround myself with people who are smarter than me and more skilled than me and passionately curious.
What are you curious about?
Take care.
