Training Defines the Person
Wikipedia gives the following definition of training:
The term training refers to the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and competencies as a result of the teaching of vocational or practical skills and knowledge that relate to specific useful competencies. It forms the core of apprenticeships and provides the backbone of content at institutes of technology (also known as technical colleges or polytechnics). In addition to the basic training required for a trade, occupation or profession, observers of the labor market recognize today the need to continue training beyond initial qualifications: to maintain, upgrade and update skills throughout working life. People within many professions and occupations may refer to this sort of training as professional development.
This certainly fits in with the Mindshare Training course that Enigin provide for all their new Distributors at their headquarters in Cornwall, UK.
Although the attendees are generally all well experienced in different areas of professional life, many with excellent qualifications or business expertise, they all admit that they learn so much more than they though possible within the short period of the course.
One thing they are encouraged to do is to also become trainers themselves, why? As the definition states above that professional development is important and they need to be able to pass on the Mindshare Training to their teams in their territories.
What they learn technically about not only about energy saving and products but marketing, management, sales, recruitment and customer relations are all vital to building a successful energy saving business and enigin Distributorship.
Not that many years ago people would learn through apprenticeships, college and university and then pick up knowledge through experience and from sharing skills with colleagues - formal training ended and was rarely ever returned to, but training now is vital for the whole workforce to be able to develop and maintain a companies place amongst, or hopefully ahead, of its competitors.
So all of us need to develop, you never stop learning and you shouldn’t for your own satisfaction and for professional reasons.
