Would it be useful for you to improve your memory of names, numbers and essential information? This course provides delegates with an understanding of the natural processes of the brain and tools to help retain information. Delegates will learn how to continue to develop their ability to learn and memorize.
Mind Mapping® is a powerful visual tool that stimulates your ability to think both creatively and logically. Mind Mapping works by first focusing on the central idea, issue or topic and then branching out to add details including inspiration, facts and thoughts. Mind Mapping has been applied to many high-level topics such as strategic planning, engineering projects and facilitating board meetings. The technique can be used individually or with groups of any size. The uses for Mind Mapping are almost unlimited and include: planning, brainstorming, taking notes, gathering ideas and studying.
Close to 70% of internet users are watching video. Forty-four percent of online video is viewed in the workplace and 26% of small businesses have video on their home or landing page. Look over your shoulder the next time you find yourself in a public place and count how many people are using mobile devices. Watching movies and television is already the culture of our global age, and video is naturally pacing alongside our technology and the way we communicate.
You’ve seen it many times: rude, insensitive or disrespectful behaviour by colleagues or managers, where it’s unclear whether or not there’s intent to harm. Well, research shows that the fingerprints of such incivility can be found in many organizational nooks. It has an eroding effect on individuals, teams and organizations. According to research published by the Harvard Business Review, 78% of people who experience rudeness by colleagues or managers report that their commitment to the organization declined, 48% say they decreased their work effort, and 66% say their performance declined. Incivility behaviours include gossip, social exclusion, dismissive body language such as eye rolling, berating others in public or otherwise, and skipping basic social niceties such as saying hello.
First Aid is an essential component of your company’s emergency response system and overall health and safety program. What would happen if someone at work suddenly stopped breathing and no one knew how to help that person? What if the necessary First Aid supplies and equipment were not available to help an employee who was bleeding heavily or who had been splashed with a corrosive chemical? Every company will, at some time or another, have to deal with First Aid emergencies. Even in workplaces that seem safe, such as stores and offices, many types of emergencies can happen. It is critical to be prepared at all times to quickly and effectively deal with these situations.
