The Trouble With Training - Video

For many staff, the thought of attending a training course can be daunting.

This video encourages a positive approach to learning. It tackles delegates’ fears, anxieties and prejudices when attending a training course – a perfect ice-breaker for the start of any training session.

Bob Smedley (Mel Smith) is convinced training is a waste of time. He unburdens his feelings to another delegate (Griff Rhys Jones). As he moans away, Bob raises every objection to training he can think of and clearly demonstrates his discomfort with the whole business. Behind his apparent self-confidence, he reveals a deep-seated fear of being judged both by his peers and the trainer.

Gradually, Bob realises that in this particular training session everything is not as it seems, and that he should always keep an open mind.
