Training
We design customized education programs for organizations, developing both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.
All our training programs are playful and highly interactive, as this is how the brain learns best. We also offer the use of simulations, as these are the best way to prepare for real-life situations.
Both the content presented and the training methods we use are always based upon the latest scientific insights.
These are some examples of the programs we have already created:
Advanced communication and influencing techniques
This training program, which has already been provided to government officials, managers and lawyers, teaches how to have the strongest effect on someone’s brain processes.
As it turns out, decisions arise from our brains in a totally different way than previously thought. And this knowledge can be translated into a surprising amount of influence.
Among other things, this training program introduces the Three Layers of Communication. Where every layer offers different opportunities for influence. By using these, trainees even outperform AI in debating.
Techniques in Verbal Judo © are practiced as well. These have been developed by us to gain control over a discussion or confrontation, without provoking aggression.
A guided tour through the young brain
This training has specially been designed for teachers, youth workers, and people in comparable functions.
In this surprising program, you will discover that the young brain can respond in totally different ways than adult ones. But also that we may need to revise all of our current ideas about puberty.
Another topic that will be covered, is the fact that in current youngsters literally different kinds of brains are found than in previous generations. Research indicates that this is related to the use of cell phones and other technology, and has serious implications for education and behavioural guidance.
This training offers ample opportunity for the discussion of practical cases.
Mental illness and work
The number of people suffering from mental illness is rising rapidly; in the Netherlands this number has gone up from 1,9 million to 3,3 million on a population of 18 million, over the last ten years. Which means that employers and employment agencies are confronted with this ever more often.
This training program has therefore been designed especially for them.
What kinds of mental illnesses are there, and what are the consequences for employee and employer? What needs to be taken into account, which are the risks one definitively needs to avoid, and how can one make sure everything works out fine?
This is a dynamic and surprising training program, of which many trainees state that is was a real eye-opener.
Complex behaviour
Following up on the above, customer-oriented organisations are increasingly confronted with complicated, demanding, aggressive or manipulative behaviour as well.
At the request of several public organisations we developed a special training program in answer to this development. This not only serves to make employees more resilient, but also offers them practical tools to remain in control over a situation without provoking aggression.
