Make Your Next Seminar More Than Just the Transmission of Knowledge

The vast majority of workshops and seminars turn out to be no more than an educational experience. The material may be relevant to your current issues and delivered in an interesting manner. Attendees will often take a lot of notes, walk out and say, “Wow that was interesting.”

However, how many times have you seen seminar material get pushed off to the side of someone’s desk, then moved to the back credenza, and eventually relegated to the kaput file?

It’s not because people aren’t well-intentioned. It’s because they lack the focus — and sometimes the motivation — to apply the information.

It’s simply not a priority, and it becomes less so as the days and weeks pass by.
