“Transitions” – Use them religiously and bore your participants to death!



As far as I can remember, way back in the past, my “Master Trainers” told me -
"After one module is completed, the trainer recaps/ summarizes key points made and then makes a few statements that smoothly connect to the next module and moves the discussion as smoothly as possible from one module to the next module. This is called 'transition'. As an aspiring trainer, you must religiously follow this rule. This is sacrosanct."


Do you remember your trips to Essel World or any other amusement park? What did you find more interesting – the big roller coaster ride or the lazy river? Roller Coaster with its sharp turns, bends and speed is exciting!. Try making your transition lines a roller coaster ride for your participants! Experiment different transitions with different audiences. You can even try humor in transition lines. Sometimes, you can even try the conventional “lazy river” way.

All I say is, experiment new approaches in training………….. Its exciting!. DARE TO BE DIFFERENT and be Good at it!
