Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

11. Techniques that can help
(with too much work)
• Task Lists
• Manage your boss
• Deal with procrastination
• Simple Time management
Th
12. Task Lists
• If you have too much to do, then pretending
you’ll do it doesn’t help anyone, especially you.
• If you don’t know how much you have to do or
what your priorities are then you are stuffed.
• A task list can be anything, outlook tasks, paper,
excel, word or even an email
– What it can’t be is your inbox, that’s impossible to
prioritise.
• Remember workload is infinite. In the end all you
can do is your hours, work hard and prioritise.
Th
13. Managing upwards: Help your Boss to
Help you
• You may want your boss to fix workload for you, but only
one person really knows what you have to you.
• Then you need to have 1x1’s to agree what you’re doing
and what you’re not doing.
• If you produce a task list and discuss with your boss the
priorities and agree what you can’t do.
• If you are in conflict with your boss, then that’s trouble. if
you ever don’t agree with your boss, there are 2 options.
Th
― You
― If things are high pressure then they can be shorter and
more frequent, even daily stand ups if needed.
― Then they can own the things you can’t do.
― Convince them of your way.
― Do it their way.
14. Procrastination – A Definition
• Are you busy, but maybe not on the right stuff?
– Look at yesterday did you do the highest value
stuff?
• Do you struggle to start because you’re
overwhelmed?
“Putting off something that it is in your interests to do,
at a time when it is in your best interests to do it.”
(Windy Dryden)
We might also add, “for the sake of something that is
less in our interests.”

Th
Cause Action
Guilt or shame that you haven’t
done the task already
The task is something you resent,
maybe you do other things to
prove your autonomy in the
world
You can be overwhelmed by
everything you have to do and
put off everything as a result
You can be afraid of the task, that
it will be unpleasant, not being
able to do it or not able to do it
to a standard you’d like
Accept where you are today
and plan for the future
Maybe your activities are
not in your interests and
you may choose to change
them
You could just need a list
so you can focus on just
one thing for now
Choose to accept the fear
as natural and do it anyway,
accept you can tolerate
unpleasantness

24. Compliments
• People like genuine compliments, think of the
impact it has on you.
• If you want more: Look for ways to genuinely
compliment others.
– Did you do that with co-workers/subordinates
today?
– How about with your boss?
Th
25. Focus on what’s been achieved
• Task lists are essential, but they are list of
thing you haven’t yet done.
– Do you celebrate success?
– Recognise yourself as well as others or it’ll be a
long year until you look back.
– Have a what’s better list or do 3 blessings, what
went well and why.
Th
27. Managing Conflict
• Everyone clashes with other people
• Priorities, ways of working, communication
style, or just disagreements
• Find the common ground
― People are different, individual – this is a good thing
― Truth : No one comes to work to intentionally do a bad job
― Align on how you do work, guidelines and establish
working norms
