Introduction to Interact

Interact

I am a certified Master Trainer for Interact Performance Systems of Anaheim, CA. When I first encountered Interact Training I had already been a trainer for many years. I was impressed not only with the program content, but also with its organization, background research and style of presentation. I immediately found the skills it presented to be useful not only at work but also at home and in my volunteer work.

I became a certified instructor for the program, called "Performance Problem Solving"TM and later earned my Master Trainer certification. Learn more about Interact here.

A few years ago I renewed my association with Interact Performance Systems. I discovered that the company dedication to presenting effective training programs remaines strong. The slogan "People Skills Learned Right, Not Rote" concisely and precisely describes the training products from Interact Performance Systems.

Interact Activities:

  • 1 - Plan and organize Interact training for your organization.
  • 2 - Present the Interact program to your staff whereby they learn to effectivly communicate issues and solve problems together.
  • 3 - Train and certify your training staff to deliver the program.

 

Training Functions

Plan the Training:   Together we evaluate a training venue for effective presentation of the Interact program, including training room size, layout, A/V needs, and schedule. (Training requires at least two days and is most effective if presented in four daily sessions.)

Train Your Staff:   Interact program concepts are presented in classroom sessions through clear explanations by the facilitator and with demonstrations of new skills by video example. The skills are further reinforced by using real life examples drawn from the class participants. Class members then practice the skills observing and coaching one another with guidance from the facilitator. Participants quickly learn to identify situations where application of the new skills can and should be used and they gain confidence in their own ability to do so.

Train Your Trainers: Trainers on your staff can be certified to present the program to other staff members though a train-the-trainer program. Trainers go through an accelerated version of the training in which they learn the most effective ways to present the skills to your staff in the future.
