“The key to transformation is time, intensity and repetition.”
-Dallas Willard
There are countless ways to make a difference in your community. One of the most powerful and lasting ways to effect change is through facilitating transformational learning models. In Train the Trainer (T3), we will train you to develop leaders, facilitate a complex leadership seminar and provide insightful coaching to those around you.
Becoming a legitimate transformational trainer requires a huge investment of time, commitment and care. You will not only discover new ways of being with people but also a pathway to examine and confront your own personal paradigms.
Training requires the courage to step beyond the comfort of the status quo and inspire others to break through their current limitations to new levels of excellence, creativity and productivity.
T3 is for men and women who are ready to make a dramatic leap in their personal and/or career development.
T3 Opportunity
T3 was established in order to professionally train people who are dedicated to catalyzing transformation of any kind in their organizations and communities.
Whether it is productivity, conflict resolution, change management, diversity training or program implementation, being a trainer opens up a new frontier of opportunity for you, those you serve and the organization as a whole!
T3 is for the executive, manager, church leader, pastor, small business owner, or aspiring entrepreneur.
T3 Promises
Learn how to transfer your leadership skills to others.
By participating in Train the Trainer, we promise you will:
Master the fundamentals of training / facilitating. Learn to design, strategize and develop material and training strategies that will compel individuals to participate, excel and connect both the hard and soft aspects of their work. The “hard side” meaning those aspects of work connect to tangible results like systems, processes, measurement, structures, procedures, physical assets, quantity while the “soft side” is commitment, spirit buy-in, attitude, creativity, self-motivation, leadership, ownership, teamwork, vision, synergy, quality and inspiration.
Distinguish yourself as a dynamic leadership facilitator and coach by championing people to reinvent the way they relate to and work with each other. By identifying and shifting what people are “listening for” and practicing relevant focused listening skills, you will support others in developing strategies to help separate their identity from their results. New behavior and choices will appear and increase your ability to inject flexibility in conflicted situations by identifying common interests, revealing new possibilities.
Motivate and empower your team by working with individuals to develop respect and power through being hard on problems and soft on people. Create a truly “learning organization” by training people to develop the skills of reframing conflicted situations to view breakdowns as mutual challenges that will birth new possibility instead of threats to their security. You will learn what it takes to coach individuals to receive feedback from others as information necessary to make potent changes.
Advance your communication, presentation, and coaching skills by learning to actively identify the changes people long for yet may believe are impossible. By working on being flexible in your “way of being” you will identify your personal winning strategies and learn how to breakthrough your natural blind spots and create new life stories for yourself and others.
T3 is geared to train you in the exciting and enlightening process of mastering the art and science of facilitation. You can become a transformational trainer – leading change initiatives in your church, organization, or through public seminars.
The qualification offers graduates a new range of business and personal opportunities, as well as providing many people with inspiration for new and fulfilling relationships where you are clear on how to be with people in a way that furthers both your vision and theirs.
