Day 2: Implementation Training - Modifying Work Practices

Note: completion of The Choice (seminar, personal study course or telecourse) is a prerequisite for these programs.

Format: an 8-hour day of training. Participants complete one of Arbinger's Implementation Training experiences:
  • The Choice at Work
  • This program is designed to help current work groups come together as a more effective team.
  • Or The Choice in Achieving Results
  • This program is designed to help people from different groups/work areas come together as a team.
They learn that all work activities fall into one of the four main Responsibility Zones:
  • Customer Zone
  • Co-Worker Zone
  • Employee Zone
  • Manager Zone
Implementation Training teaches participants to focus on achieving a clear, measurable result in each of the four key Responsibility Zones. This focus helps maintain The Responsive Way and avoid The Resistant Way, so participants more effectively identify, prioritize and direct all of their workplace efforts. In addition, they learn a unique, effective reporting mechanism that keeps them applying the new work methods and strategies.
