Summary: Disappointed
Comment: This book addresses a topic that because of behavioral styles, experience, and communication ability, many trainers have a challenge handling - participants who do not cooperate or who make things difficult. While Pike/Arch provide some useful ideas and tips that are valuable for less experienced trainers, the content does not justify the cost. There are large graphics, and wide margins which leave a lot of white space. If content was expanded or if it were priced [lower]it would be a better value.
Rating: 2
Summary: good tips, easy to read large print, but not worth the $25.
Comment: This book has some worth to it for the beginning trainer. However, we were disappointed that the publisher had used very large margins, and very large fonts to make it appear to have more content then what it has. It is a paperback book that looks to be around $10-15, not the $25 asking price. We're sending the books back that we purchased for our trainers. It's not what we were expecting. But if you have a lavish budget, and don't care about costs, then it would be an ok addition for the "trainer library".
Rating: 5
Summary: Easy to read, with specific and realistic examples!
Comment: A great way to quickly pick up ideas for those problem people in EVERY classroom. I train technology and, although this book is not necessarily geared toward technology training, I believe I can easily apply these strategies in my sessions. Thanks Bob & Dave!
