Southwest FL ASTD Monthly Meeting
April 18, 2011
Audience Engagement:
This Month’s topic is Audience Engagement: How to connect with your audience, even if they don’t want to be there.
We’ve all heard about the value of Employee Engagement. As trainers we recognize that Audience Engagement is essential to a successful workshop as well. Nevertheless, sometimes our audience can seem disengaged and even on occasion hostile about attending something we know will be good for them.
Attend this meeting and you will learn:
- The different categories of workshop participants and how to “connect” with each of them
- What to do with the angry bird that can’t fly away
- “Reading” and responding to the various moods of an audience
