How will I gain from the programmes?
The programmes are experiential in nature, and the participants learn by doing. Emphasis is on Role Plays, Metaphorical implantation and interactive learning. Participants are encouraged to ask questions to remove doubts and ambiguities. The principle employed is Ask better questions, and get better answers. In short, you take the learning home with you – as an experience, rather than as a theory which will soon be forgotten.
How long will the motivation/learning last? a-pep.com
Participants are encouraged to put the learning into practice as quickly as possible. Tomorrow is still unreal. Yesterday is just a figment of memory. Today is real, and we need to utilize it immediately if we have to gain a better tomorrow. Now, since the learning is imbibed, it remains locked away in the subconscious, and is real. All we have to do is to take the one-month challenge that is part of the programme, and we will then work the learning into a new habit. Once we learnt how to swim or ride a cycle, we naturally never forget the skill. Transformation, and Experiential Learning is such a skill, and should therefore last a lifetime. We also offer PERSONAL POWER COACHING as a fail-safe service, where you can develop your potential by working with a Power Coach who will guide you and motivate you to reach your goals.
How expensive are the programmes?
The programmes are very reasonably priced. But speaking about expensive… the issue is how expensive is it NOT to DO the programmes? Can we in a fast-paced world, progress through trial and error? Can we afford not to grow faster than our peers and surrounding? Are we content to try to win? Why take chances when there are tried and tested processes and programmes that can help you reach the top? Each of the programmes has an investment attached to it. After all, there are no free lunches. However, if you could be shown how to earn more and reach higher with little or no risk, would you not be interested in checking it out? Do call us and we will show you how to maximize and multiply your investment (which is affordable by any standard).
What type of participant are the programmes meant for?
For anyone who wants to succeed. Interestingly, the will to succeed is genetically coded into our DNA. So, while the focal point for our programmes is the professional or businessperson who wants to win, and does not want to take any chances, the programmes work well for ANYONE. Whether you are a housewife, a person out of work, or a businessperson who is unsure of where you are headed, you can rest assured that you will be in safe hands and you too can succeed with our training and coaching programmes. For those who want to touch heights of achievement, you definitely need the programme. Every successful player requires a proper coach. Every person who wants to be successful needs our services.
What are the Corporate Programmes available?
From the list of Personal and Professional Development programmes, it is apparent that we have a host of programmes to offer the corporate world. However, we also pride ourselves on being a company that customizes every programme to the needs of the client. Ian Faria has tons of industry experience with MNCs and companies – big and small, from diverse business interests – and is an expert in identifying the needs of a company/team, and developing a new programme, or tweaking an existing programme to give the company the benefits it is looking for. The ROI on the programmes is not just felt by the participants, but it is also visible and tangible on the deliverables that the participants get for the company.
What are the tools used to check the efficacy of the programmes?
We have a detailed feedback form that is a part of every programme that the Academy conducts. This is evaluated, and the results are sent – in data and graphic output form, that will clearly indicate how the participants viewed the programme. However, the proof of the pudding is the change that the participants bring about in their behavior, outlook and they way of functioning on a professional level. We are proud to get validations from participants, HR people, and managers of participants about how the programme has changed people’s lives. It would certainly change yours too.
How does an individual select a programme?
The deliverables of each module are very specific. For example – Power Talk is a programme devoted to developing public speaking skills. Peer Talk is targeted towards interpersonal skills including how to participate in meetings and group discussions, and how to read people and interact with them appropriately. In addition, you could come in to the office for a free consultation, and our counselors will estimate your needs and suggest programmes that will give you good results.
Is there any assurance that the programmes will work?
Absolutely. We pride ourselves on being able to assure you of getting the results you desire. We also back this up through video evaluations in addition to the written feedback of the participants as described above. Further, we also have power coaching that could work out personal issues and even quirks that some of us may possess. We also provide assistance to those who have completed the programmes to guide them on future issues that could arise. In addition, you will receive newsletters and be part of growing alumni that wants to continually evolve. Call us for myriad ways in which you can benefit from the Academy.
Are there any follow-up programmes for the participants to ensure continuous improvement?
Based on the need of the participants of earlier programmes, we have structured one of the most successful methodologies to ensure continual improvement of the participants. This is in the form of a mutual benefit association called the Global Citizen’s Forum. We have initiated one community club in Bangalore, and two college clubs in Bangalore. The mission of the GCF is to give members the tools and techniques to be successful anywhere on the planet. Focus is on communication skills – at the public and the interpersonal levels, and on holistic development of the success paradigm. It is a continuous learning forum, and meetings are held on a weekly basis, for two hours at a time. Learn more by clicking on the link www.gcf.co.in
