I once faced this exact challenge with a team I trained. They felt the program was “nice in theory” but didn’t help with their daily grind. So, I flipped the approach. We started by listing their toughest daily challenges—time management, tricky client calls, and repetitive tasks. Then, I built training sessions around solving those problems. Instead of abstract theories, we used live scenarios from their workload. The game-changer? One teammate said, “I applied this today, and it worked!” That moment proved relevance is everything. Training has to feel like a tool, not homework.

Make training hands-on – Tie it directly to daily tasks. Ask for feedback – Find out what skills they need most. Use microlearning – Keep it short and easy to apply. Provide quick resources – Job aids or videos they can grab on the go. Keep learning ongoing – Make it a regular thing, not just a one-time session.
