Seven Mistakes to Avoid as a Trainer

Everybody makes mistakes, but some mistakes can seriously affect your credibility as a trainer. Steer clear of committing these training blunders:

• Starting late and wasting time

• Being poorly prepared and lacking content knowledge

• Displaying distracting habits

• Ignoring participants' needs and interrupting their questions

• Lacking enthusiasm

• Reading from a script

• Neglecting to tell participants WIIFM (what's in it for me?)
