Juggling requires skill, coordination, balance, timing, and focus. If one of these is off, the juggler will most certainly drop a ball or two (let’s just hope it’s not a flaming sword or a bowling ball!). Being a trainer who is responsible for all training-related tasks is a lot like being a juggler. You must possess the right skillset for the role you are performing that day (whether it be designer or instructor, for example), and sometimes it’s necessary to switch back and forth between roles in the same day. You must coordinate and balance your schedule between each role to prevent burnout. And lastly, you must stay focused on the task at hand and in the state of mind the role requires at that moment.
Phew! That sounds exhausting! Well, it doesn’t need to be. With proper planning and solid skills to thrive in every role, you can become a successful trainer who juggles it all!
Here at Langevin we understand that sometimes you must do it all, so we have a course designed specifically for those that need to juggle many different roles and need to have multiple skillsets.
