Its been almost 20 years since I started my training career not as a full-time trainer but SME who loves to share learning and experience earned during professional life, dealing with real situations. I never took training as a profession but passion and always feel pleasure when I see people adopting or adapting ideas and philosophies, I believe in.
One fine morning of July 2020, I received a call from owner of a well-known training institute based in Abu Dhabi that is specialized in financial services training. We discussed the opportunities to collaborate and how can I support the institute to develop training programs catering some challenging subjects especially for UAE market. My curiosity to know the source of reference was natural, it wasn’t a surprise but appears to be few participants who attended my training in past couple of years.
In the same month of July 2020, in response to one of my inquiry, the feedback I received from a very honorable person who is engaged in training/consultancy/mentor-ship etc that “Working as a professional is a different game whereas training is completely a different ball game”. The response was little surprising, without full understanding of inquiry and the profile of inquirer, how come someone who claims to be a trainer/consultant/mentor, jumped to the conclusion.
What I have expressed so far isn’t about myself or others, its all about “PERCEPTION”. The way people perceive others and themselves. Perception isn’t just a state but a process that people use to form impressions of others, make snap judgments & decisions. Since its “PERCEPTION” that is usually based on judgement therefore in most of the cases it could be wrong. I still believe training isn’t a different ball game, its just a technique to deliver one’s learning. Professionals are considered better trainer compared to the one who never experienced the practical world.
To conclude, I must emphasis, forming perception could be poisonous, the wise approach is to fully understand and then react.

4 年I totally agree with regards to perception that can lead to misjudgment. but i have seen people that are good at teaching/training but not good at practice. Practical experience requires more than the training, it involves judgement, mental capability to face the real situation, decision making, intuitions etc. Do you agree sir?
