    #11 EET: More Than A Teacher (Part I)

    Modern trainers must embody diverse roles as teachers, students, technicians, and thought leaders. While teaching imparts knowledge or hones skills, the majority of a trainer's time is devoted to learning, researching, and staying curious. Adaptability is crucial in the fast-changing world, emphasizing the need for continuous learning to remain relevant. In summary, a good trainer excels in teaching, but a great trainer is also a dedicated and ongoing learner.

    #10 EET: Ask Learners About Their Takeaways

    Encourage learners to reflect on the session's content by asking questions like "What was the most useful thing you learned today?" and "What are two takeaways you have?". This not only helps internalize the information and promote lasting change but also provides instant feedback on what resonated and what didn't. It allows for reinforcement of crucial points and enhances future session messaging.

    #9 EET: Getting Sticky Results

    Habits are key to lasting success, with specific habits being the most impactful in personal development. Whether pursuing a healthy lifestyle or leadership, cultivating relevant habits is essential. Examples, such as daily blogging inspired by Seth Godin, showcase the transformative power of consistent habits. Charles Duhigg's model of a habit includes a cue, routine, and reward, and guiding participants in choosing these elements facilitates habit development. Starting with tiny habits can lead to significant changes over time.

    #8 EET: Give Them A Story to Tell

    Enhance training impact by sharing compelling stories that position participants as heroes in their individual journeys. While good trainers captivate with stories, great trainers ensure participants leave with narratives to share. The most significant learning occurs when participants internalize session concepts, evident in their personal stories and reflections. The ultimate success for educators is when participants approach with relevant stories, indicating the practical value and impact of the training.

    #7 EET: Design Purposeful Activities

    Purposeful activities with a feedback system, either self-generated or trainer-led, are essential for effective learning. The analogy of practicing free throws in basketball illustrates the importance of self-generated feedback, while teaching technical information requires the trainer's input to ensure accuracy and close the learning loop.

    #6 EET: Lead Purposeful Discussions

    Active engagement, not passive listening, enhances learning. Peer-to-peer interactions are more impactful than relying solely on trainers. To optimize learning, trainers should speak minimally (ideally 20% of the time) and design content for 80% participant engagement through discussions and activities. Adaptability in leading discussions is crucial, with thoughtful questioning guiding effective conversations.
