What Trainers Say About Style Matters

Rights to reproduce Style Matters in French from PDF - Nonprofit

Identical to our printed version, Style Matters in PDF in French is for trainers or users who want to print their own copies. Buy for the number of users who will be using the inventory. Our server will then send you a link for immediate download of the PDF. YOU NEED A PASSWORD TO OPEN THIS FILE; see the Purchase Order in your inbox for the password and the download link. Also available in Spanish and English.

Note: If you are considering this option on grounds of cost, you are welcome to approach us for assistance to use the online version instead. We have a commitment in principle that every motivated user should be able to use the version most suited to their needs. We weigh this principle more heavily than maximizing revenue for every sale. If you believe your group deserves consideration for a reduced price, send us an email at center@riverhouseepress.com. The digital version gives a significantly higher learning experience for most situations than the paper version - see our detailed assessment of that at http://bit.ly/paperordigital. We'll do our best to put it in reach financially for you.

Description

Important:

  • The file is for your own use alone; it is illegal to circulate the PDF file to others.
  • You are buying rights to print out on paper the PDF we provide you; you are not allowed to send around the PDF to your users.  (We occasionally authorize the latter on special request and we add a 50% surcharge, which is our best guess as to increased exposure to unauthorized useage that comes with increased circulation of the PDF)
 

Optimize for learning

Train with tools designed by trainers and optimized for learning. Direct attention beyond numbers to core strengths, opportunities for growth, and strategic choices.

Prepare for diversity

Build conflict resolution skills in settings where managing differences is challenging. Use training tools with built-in cultural flexibility. Provide opportunities to discuss how diverse backgrounds shape habits in conflict.

Be practical

Ground learning in affirmation of existing strength. Give clear, simple feedback on areas of concern. Provide detailed suggestions for options to improve.

Be stress aware

Calm≠Storm. Recognize response to conflict as dynamic and not single state.  Give tools to manage the Storm Shift.

Be where they are

Provide multi-platform delivery of training. Support groups and teams scattered physically and working together online. Use time-saving web tools to facilitate learning for individuals, teams, or groups, in face-to-face workshops or online.

Work with limits

Price training materials in reach of all who need them. Reduce prep, coordination, and delivery time with trainer-friendly online tools. Deliver rich learning, on location or online, in less time, with less travel.

Take a long view

Expand the window of learning and support reflection before, during, and after workshops. Set up rich discussion in pairs, small groups, and large groups. Followup with resources for continued growth.  Facilitate journeys, not events.
