Tuesday went to a day long training about the company's new purpose, vision and values. I was extremely impressed with the facilitation but then I found it very difficult to focus on anything but the organisation of the content/event and delivery...Years of conferences in AIESEC and an attention to detail made me aware of the 'tricks' employed to get buy in for this new initative.

Don't get me wrong, I think it is a fantastic idea they are pushing and the employees world over have been crying out for this for some time now. A good solution.

However, I couldn't help but notice the action music played at various intervals to stimulate excitement. The fact that when asked to evaluate the purpose, out of eight questions asked, only 1 was negative - therby ensuring that the employees were selling the purpose themselves, old school sales trick...Moving furniture to hide fatigue....Workshops to discuss the benefits rather than implications of change...The little things...


I wonder how much I will miss because of so much focus on the process. Identifying the problem is the first step in the cure...
