Trainer Games in Action: A Guide to Integrating Experiential Learning Into Your Existing Programs Want to use games in training? See this two-video-set first. Most trainers enjoy learning how to incorporate games and activities into their curriculum; however, many are limited to activities they have experienced themselves. Though there are dozens of excellent game and activity books on the market, many trainers are not comfortable using an activity they have not seen or experienced before. Trainer Games in Action, Volume One & Two fills this gap between written instructions and participation in a workshop. In these videos you will see us introduce the activity, lead a group through the exercise, debrief the experience and then give a few trainer tips for each exercise. Our purpose is to show you one way that the games can be presented and used to help you teach your content. You can adapt and change the activities to meet your needs and the needs of your learners. We believe in the power of experiential learning and understand that games and activities are only one piece of that process! The most important part is the processing time which allows the learner to reflect on what happened, recognize patterns and apply the learning to other situations. Kolb's Experiential Learning Cycle is a good tool to use to guide that process. You will find this video tape useful in helping you create powerful learning opportunities! Volume 1 Activities: Expression Cards — Icebreaker Have You Ever — Energizer Group Juggle — Problem solving activity Magic Carpet Ride — Problem solving activity Mousetraps — Trust activity and cooperation Team Mousetraps — Trust activity Breathlessly Building — Change management Volume 2 Activities: Peek-A-Who? — Icebreaker Across the Great Divide — Problem solving activity Wingtips — Problem solving activity Line-Ups — Communication activity Keypad — Process improvement activity Hula Hover — Problem solving activity Each video is approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes and shows the introduction from the facilitator, the activity, and then the processing of the activity.

Top Ten Training Trends For 2006-2007 What are the top ten trends in training and human resource development that are expected to dominate in 2007? At HumaNext, we use an interesting and valuable way to arrive at the answer. No, we don’t use surveys nor we interview leaders in the business, who may just repeat what they might have read in the paper without personal experience or verification of the information. Our system is more “real-world” and “put-your-money-where-your-mouth-is” type of approach. We don’t ask people what issues they “think” are important. We look for the issues in which they have invested their money by buying products that address them in 2006. Because we at HumaNext offer over 500 products, from training programs and training videos, to online courses, courses on CDs, off-the-shelf-packages and onsite workshops, we are able to develop a very good idea of the kind of topics in which people spend most of their money. The thousands of orders we received in 2006 from our customers among leading American corporations, government, educational, and non-profit organizations, and international organizations, make up the key trends in training and HRD business for the year. Based on this approach, here are the key 2006 training trends that we expect to see continuing in 2007: - Mentoring: For a number of years now, many organizations have shown a strong need for mentoring programs and products. We see a continuing strong interest in this area. See our Coaching / Mentoring Page - Coaching: Both individual executives and training departments continue to show a significant need for coaching. Many in the training field seek to teach managers the skills of coaching as an alternative to other less effective supervisory styles. See our Coaching page - Innovation: A growing number of organizations are implementing innovation programs and are seeking resources to help their managers and staff think more creatively. Innovation is becoming what quality used to be: a key competitive weapon. See our Creativity page - Emotional Intelligence: This is a relatively new area where we see a growing demand. Many trainers show interest in helping their managers acquire emotional intelligence skills in leading their staff. See our EQ page - Ethics & Compliance: The stunning results of the 2006 Congressional elections in the US were caused by primarily two factors: the war in Iraq that people perceive to have been built on false premises and misleading promises, and several ethical problems and downright corruption among key politicians and religious leaders. We have seen a rise in the demand for ethics and compliance training programs and believe that it may increase in 2007. See our Ethics page . - Leadership Communication. Although interest in communication skills training is old and stable, there is a new emphasis on leadership and executive communication that is based on the notion of leadership as a series of critical conversations. Our Critical Conversation training continues to enjoy good reception by various organizations and training departments. See communication skills page - Diversity and Inclusiveness: Diversity is another old topic that is enjoying a renewed interest, because of the increasing diversity of the workforce, increased immigration, and the need for cross cultural skills to meet the needs of globalization. Somewhat new areas within diversity are generational diversity, gender diversity, and the ability/disability area. See our Diversity page - E-Learning: The need for online courses is continuing. We at HumaNext have experienced growth in this area with a number of companies selecting a customized set of courses to be delivered to a large number of their managers and employees. Both self-learning and instructor-facilitated courses enjoy an increased demand. Training directors can try it free. See our e-learning page . - Streamed Video: In the area of training videos, the future is for delivering this type of training programs through the convenience of streamed video. We now offer many of our training video programs in this new format that has many advantages. We will be providing more information on this in the coming weeks. - Motivation and Service: With the fast pace of change in many organizations, maintaining employee morale and motivation so that they can continue to perform with energy and deliver good service to customers is a continuing need. Our products in this area, like the “Smile” training video, continue to enjoy brisk demand. See our Motivation page
