What is Training and Development?
Learning involves acquiring knowledge and developing skills. Employees acquire knowledge through formal and informal training activities and development experiences. The distinction between training and development is an important one. Training delivers information people will use in their jobs. Training builds competencies – the knowledge, skills, and abilities employees need. Development refers to experiences that make people better. Development is a tool for increasing organizational productivity, excellence and health. Training and development increases employee engagement and helps employees and organizations perform to their best.

Whiners focus on the negative, and thrive on complaining – often about the most insignificant things you can imagine. According to the Wall Street Journal, research indicates that productivity can be damaged by working alongside a chronic complainer. Exposure to non-stop negativity can disrupt learning, memory, attention, and judgement. The problem is more widespread than you think, because in many cases, it’s become so commonplace that we don’t even notice anymore. If you’re a leader, you can confront them, but if you’re a co-worker, it’s much more difficult. So if you can’t walk away easily, here’s some key techniques for dealing with a whiner: 1) Distance yourself from a whiner. Move your desk and if possible, change your office. Just the geographic change can make a significant difference. Most of the time, whiners vent on who’s nearby, so don’t be an easy target. 2) Switch the conversation. Ask them opposite questions, like, What’s working? What’s going well? Turn the talk to good things about the company or project, and you can often derail the whiner. 3) Put a whiner on the spot. Ask them what they intend to do about the problem. Don’t be a jerk but be direct. Agree with them that what they’re whining about is a real problem, but something has to be done. What do they suggest? That’s usually enough to stop the whiner in his or her tracks. 4) Let them know you’re not interested. Once they hit a brick wall enough times, they’ll look for someone else. So if nothing else works, get in their face. Again, don’t be rude, but be honest. Tell them you don’t think being negative will solve the problem, and when they have another idea, then you’ll listen. 5) Leaders: Schedule times to vent. If you can book the occasional meeting where employees have a designated time to complain (and be listened to), this will often get it out of their system. Employees do have challenges, and as leaders we too often don’t take it seriously. Just the act of listening can make a huge difference. Enough positive employees can overwhelm the negative, so teach your team the power of engaging the negative with positive responses, and suddenly the futility of just complaining will become very clear.

5 Ways To Lose The Victim Mindset - 5 Ways to Recognize It
In this video I’ll be talking about I will be talking about how to get out of the victim mindset. I’m going to give you 5 ways to recognize whether you have this mindset and 5 solutions to break out of the victim mindset. Setbacks, disappointments and hurts are part of the uncertainty of life. How you respond to these setbacks determines how satisfied you will be with your life. You can’t control your circumstances, but you can control your response to them. How do you know if you’re wallowing in victimization? Here are 5 ways to recognize it. 1. Most things have a negative tone to them. 2. You ask yourself “why” a lot. 3. You mull over things - a lot (this is called ruminating). 4. You don’t think very highly of yourself. You are your own worst critic. 5. Your first emotion is anger and you are often resentful of other people’s gains. Here are 5 solutions to break out of this way of thinking. 1. Build your confidence by creating small achievable goals. 2. Turn your attention to giving to others. This helps you overcome neediness. 3. Make a gratitude list. When you are in victim mode, you focus more on what you don’t have. 4. Get closure on your past hurts. 5. Take ownership of your decisions. No one can make you feel a certain way without you allowing it. WANT TO START IN THERAPY?

Doing Core Values | Bob Keiller | TEDxGlasgow
The benefits of having a clear guiding purpose and running an organisation on sound principles has been well covered by many people before. Understanding your “why” is a compelling concept that is easy to grasp. Intellectually it is easy to recognise the potential benefits of operating within clearly defined core values. Practically, it isn’t as easy though. After the near-meltdown of global financial systems a few years ago many organisations recognised that they needed to start living by their values. Yet many continued to get fined and sanctioned for corrupt practices after this time. So, why is it so easy to understand the benefits of living and breathing a strong and principled set of core values, yet so difficult to make it actually happen? Because it’s much harder than people think. It takes unrelenting, obsessive, persistent leadership over many years and, even then, the minute you stop maintaining it, it decays like weeds reclaiming an unloved garden. But if you focus on the right things you can create a culture built on values that shapes the way that everyone behaves. In this talk, Bob shares some of the key learning points from his journey. Well-known for his innovation and leadership, Bob Keiller was appointed Chairman of Scottish Enterprise in January 2016. Previously, he was the CEO of Wood Group, a British multinational oil and gas company with $7 billion (USD) sales, over 40,000 employees, and operations in more than 50 countries. Bob has a Masters of Engineering from Heriot-Watt University and is a chartered engineer. Awarded Entrepreneur of the Year in 2006 and 2008, he was also named Scottish Businessman of the Year in 2007 and Grampian Industrialist of the Year in 2008. In 2011, Bob was voted “Scottish Male Business Leader of the Year” at the Scottish Leadership awards. Alongside his non-executive role in Scottish Enterprise, Bob is providing mentoring and support for ambitious business leaders and social enterprises. As a result, he has a busy calendar of public speaking engagements, delivering pitches, presentations and talks and successfully securing many contracts and raising lots of business funding. An open book, he claims to have made nearly every mistake possible, ever adding more to the list, and often shares his learning in this area in the hope of inspiring new business leaders. Married with three children, Bob currently resides in Aberdeen. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
