What makes ACG's Facilitated Peer Training different from traditional training?

Active participation :
Small group size means each person receives attention.

Real-life application :
Homework assignments address existing workplace challenges.

Accountability :
Homework results are critiqued by facilitator and group.

Applied theory :
Management theories and strategies are integrated into real-world context. Independent perspective: Facilitator and peers present solutions not influenced by "we've always done it this way."

Personal customization :
Topics are chosen by participants based on individual need within this general range:

• Motivating the “unmotivated”
• Resolving conflicts and solving problems
• Giving recognition
• Using constructive confrontation with peers and superiors
• Coaching performance effectively prior to performance evaluations
• Creating stronger teams
