Whether you are a full time trainer, or you train as part of your job, this practical, highly experiential 2-day workshop will leave you better equipped to deal with any training situation.
Authenticity – Training for Trainers is for trainers, team leaders, content experts, and anyone who presents or trains. You’ll learn to:
develop training skills to new levels, no matter where you start from
develop a unique style of training that’s based on your natural strengths
feel at ease at the front of the room — so you feel as comfortable at the front of the room as talking to friends across a coffee table
You’ll learn a wide variety of training tools and techniques, and also experience them in use. You’ll have plenty of opportunities to practise, so you’ll leave ready to hit the ground running.
We start before you get to the workshop. Before you arrive you’ll be invited to tell us the outcomes you want, and we will weave them into the training plan.

Testimonials
'The course was not only fun, but extremely helpful. I wish I had done a course like this before I started training. It gives you so many tools, skills and support to help you as a trainer. The course provided a supportive, friendly and developmental atmosphere so that people could provide honest feedback on others skills and abilities. This meant it was an eye opener for me – helping me to identify the pros and cons of my training style so that I could improve on them.' Kathy Jackson, Statistics New Zealand
'Two days of fun, interactive learning. Very rewarding and enjoyable. The increased confidence I feel is already making a difference to my planning for future training events.' Leo McIntyre, Richmond New Zealand Trust Ltd
About the trainers
Authenticity – Training for Trainers is delivered by two experienced trainers. Participants trial the skills in a safe environment and receive valuable feedback from the trainers and fellow participants.
Helen Wise leads workshops on every topic in the Write portfolio. She has extensive experience as a trainer, and her love of the craft has inspired her to share her skills. In her ten years at Write she has probably encountered every situation a trainer could face. She’s known for making training fun and memorable.
Trish Stonestreet is based in Wellington. She is a director of Maygrove Management Services and the developer of the Authenticity series of workshops. In over 20 years she has worked with many government and corporate organisations, developing and delivering training. She is a natural and fun facilitator with a relaxed and practical training style. As a former speaking phobic, she has a particular commitment to helping others to build confidence at the front of the room.
