Service 5. Workshops for Universities, Companies & Individuals (S5-CO)
“Who dares to teach must never cease to learn.” John Cotton Dana (For more details look above and click on SERVICES then click on Service 5 to the left) For organizations or individuals seeking consultation or teaching
to improve performance and increase your or others' engagement in what matters to them.
Organizational and management theories and models abound.
The problem is to find the right one (effective) and apply it in the right way (efficient) for the particular organization's requirements.
Jack's extensive learning and experiences and the ability to think "about the box",
while thinking "within" and "outside" the box, is the comparative advantagehe can offer.
He has created dozens of truly effective courses for employees and managers.
Who Are the Courses/Workshops For?
These 37 workshops/courses are for universities, continuing adult education institutes, business schools,
English Language businesses, foreign international companies, State and private Chinese companies,
vocational colleges, and e-learning companies. These workshops are only for adults 18 and up.
They are suitable for undergraduate to post-graduate (MBA) students.
I deliver the courses only in English and thus the recommended level of English for attendees is
approximately the equivalent of CET 4. However, it should be noted I’m very used to teaching
business and culture concepts to EFL learners in China, and my course material is specially selected for them
– that is, the reading material is very simple and all my content is oriented to “action learning”
principles where theory is related to real life work and home situations.
Materials in the Courses/Workshops
For each of my workshops/courses that I present, I supply digital copies of the following
(individuals or organizations are responsible for printing out the provided documents):
A free PDF download of an entire book (always in English) that best matches and expands the perspective of my workshops/courses.
For example, for the management course, Business Leadership, I include the entire 412 page book by Peter Senge, The Fifth Discipline.
Many of the books I include are not available in Chinese bookstores and are very expensive (upward of 60USD) to order from abroad.
A 2 page Quick Reference Guide in color containing the essential points of the workshop so you can quickly review and implement the skills and knowledge you learned.
A Workbook (from 30 to 100+ pages containing B&W clipart, tables, lined spaces for written responses, and the mini-lecture material)
plus extra Handouts (from 10 to 80+ pages) to focus and supplement your class activities and to take home to continue life-long learning.
A personalized Certificate of Completion in color is awarded at the end of the workshop.
All workshops/courses presented by Jack are hands-on interactive and based on proven research on the effectiveness of brain-based, self-directed, action learning. The following delivery approaches are used:
PowerPoint & video;
case studies;
role-play;
teaching-to-learn in pairs, teams & class;
lectures;
games;
drawing;
music
ongoing test-review;
meta-learning or learning to learn;
mind maps;
physical exercises.
ImportantNote for Chinese participants: because these workshops are taught from the perspective of current Western business practices
by a native English Westerner, they should prove to be of particular value to Chinese business persons and students
in learning how to better deal with business persons from the West.
