Why good experts give weak training

Knowing the subject is not enough. A trainer who has not asked what the group needs chooses the wrong exercises, loses the room in the first twenty minutes and leaves people with the feeling that training is a waste of time. The difference between a lecture people forget and a session that changes how they work is in preparation, structure and facilitation.

What changes after this course

You start with questions to the client and the audience, not with slides. You build the session from a script: opening, exercises, debrief, practice. You know what to do with a silent group and with a difficult participant. You run a webinar as confidently as a room. You use AI to draft a course, and you can show management what the training gave the business.

Who is teaching

I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.

I remember my first training session: a dry throat, red cheeks, my own pulse in my ears, words disappearing. Since then I have spoken at conferences with several hundred people and at international online events in English. I have also seen what a wrong exercise costs. At Wargaming one manager refused to attend any training. I asked why. He had once been taken to a leadership session where the group folded paper pigeons, and he decided he did not need this. The trainer wanted to warm up the group and chose an exercise that experienced business leaders would not accept. This course is about not leaving that gap between the trainer and the audience.
