I Can’t Be Fooled By You
I regard myself as a professional coach who is into communication and company training. After many years of expertise I today know almost all the nuances of training and coaching Methodologies.
We have recently launched a project for our organization under which my team and I’d be catering for the company coaching needs of the business unit that comes under my supervision. We did a complicated training need identification exercise across the organization so that we have the genuine picture about the present and potential learning curve of the workers. By the end of the exercise my team and I came down to a conclusion that there had been rather a lot of training gap. We’d really have to drag our socks to ensure that the minimum commitment we had given to the management in terms of training hours per workers, are met. Considering this strength of my team, I realized as per what the coaching targets were we required more trainers. And therefore, I raised a recruitment requisition for five more trainers.
As the situation required urgent attention. I was myself in touch with the human resource office to make certain that I get the best of the trainers available in the market. Often, it’s my team that looks after the recruitments. However, for at least a week’s time I was interviewing trainers after trainers. And by the end of it I felt as though there were no good trainers left on the face of the earth. More than half of the people I met were trying to sell a Gucci replica and wanted me to believe that it was original. Have it not been coaching I might have actually been fooled by the attitude and confidence these candidates had when they talked hollow stuff about coaching. As they talked it was quite evident that they knew noting about coaching or the coaching method. All they knew was to dress nicely and carry a hoax perspective. I’m not surprised why they would have Gucci replica at all.
It was quite a sad situation. I was more concerned about the indisputable fact that if in the market these were the trainers we had then how could I be thinking of outsourcing some of the coaching projects that I assumed I would. As the training specialists are way more for making profits rather than caring about the learning curve of the participants. And not to mention my worries were mounting high as there was too many to deliver and the resources that I had, were limited.
finally I was under the impression that I might have the video recording of the trainings delivered by the best trainers I have and use the same to train the employees all across the organization. By doing this I wouldn’t have to hire those Gucci replica selling trainers and I could look after the coaching delivery targets as the same time, without bending knees. And that is exactly what we probably did as a team. Not just that we managed to cover more than what we committed but the results of this invention turned out to be really amazing.
