I recently wrote an article on how to best leverage your investment in education, how to get the most out of a class or presentation. It was a short article for an online publication. I am not able to reproduced the article here. I do, however, want to share the info more widely.
The article offered 5 big suggestions. The descriptions were short, not 'nuf room for great detail. Over the next 5 blogs here I will explore 1 each of the suggestions in greater detail.
Suggestion number 1: Determine the relevance
When exposed to an idea or concept in a class, be it a technical skill, a business building tip or a management idea, determine its relevance to your situation. Ask a few questions...
Does this apply to our situation?
Do we have this problem?
Will this solution work for us?
Will our customers embrace this?
There amy be more questions. These are just a few to get you going.
Not all ideas translate to all situations. It can be a great idea, yet not a great one for YOU.
Look at others who have been successful with this idea. How is their situation similar or different from yours?
Do not over think it. Some ideas are simply just good. But do not NOT think it over either. Think before you leap.
