Financially, I don't
know how true Johnny's statement is. However, having worked with
students from 5 to 85 years old, it is extremely true when it pertains
to the investment of time and attention. More information is coming
at us faster and in greater volume than ever before. the attention
span of adult learners is getting increasingly short, making training
that much more difficult. Jerry Seinfeld explained this best when
he discussed the television viewing and remote control habits of
an adult male- "It's not so much that we want to know WHAT'S ON,
we want to know WHAT ELSE IS ON! Research has clearly shown that
students of any age are best motivated by an approach which combines
both intellectual AND emotional material.
All of The Show Works™
seminars and workshops seek to make learning memorable by using
magic, comedy and a great deal of audience interaction to communicate
the message. Humor and illusions build a rapport which help to overcome
the resistant that is often present in adult learners. This creates
a fast paced, informative, fun atmosphere in which to learn and
grow.
