another simple idea that John Sleigh uses to add involvement to his training
programs
Using video feedback
Trainees who are shown a video of themselves are more likely to focus on the
negatives than gain an overall impression. For presentation skills
training turn the video camera on the audience so that the trainee can see how
they react to the presentation. They may be surprised to find that where
the speaker was winging it, the audience was fidgeting. Where the item was
rehearsed and well thought out, the audience was attentive.
