Evan Hackel has an extensive background in training, human resources, and learning development. He is the CEO of Tortal Training and the creator of the Ingaged Leadership brand. If you are wondering if that is a typo, the answer is no. On this episode Evan shares the difference between engagement and ingagement. Especially as it applies to a leadership role. Evan is the author of Ingaging Leadership: 21 Steps to Elevate Your Business a book not only for business, but for life. We are all leaders in some respect, and we all need to be more ingaging when we talk to people. We learn some of the principles in Evan’s book, and he shares a story where he saw his father engage in true leadership and find an opportunity that others had missed. Evan’s philosophy is to get everyone on the team inspired to work for the same vision. Show Notes [03:30] Evan has a passion around the power and impact that people make. In most businesses, the people are the asset. [03:47] A big part of accessing this talent is learning development and training. It's giving people the tools they need to succeed and helping them to understand how to be successful. [04:07] Involvement is the "I" in Ingagement. To engage people you need to involve them. You want a common vision with shared values. [04:26] When everyone in the organization has a responsibility for success it makes a massive difference. [05:09] A bottom up organization with everyone valued is a game changer. [06:16] When team members have ownership in goals, they work very hard to achieve those goals. [07:38] Evan's company has a learning strategy and an engagement strategy. When companies reach out to him, they try to get to the root of what the organization really needs. [08:29] Everyone in the organization is part of the design process to get to what is truly needed in the organization,  instead of what they thought they needed. People actually get the training they need. [09:21] The consulting process has mechanisms that involves everyone in the organization also. [10:36] People at all levels have important things to say. [12:34] Evan wrote his book Ingaging Leadership to pass on to his kids and to make a difference in the world. The book is really about leadership and life in any fashion. [13:45] Listening for the kernel of truth. Try to listen to people to see how they are right. When you are really listening people feel heard. This is a trait of a good leader. [18:25] Management is about execution and leadership is about inspiring. [21:31] People don't become leaders by mistake. The idea is to build upon that success and learning new and growing existing leadership skills. [23:49] Evan shares his big aha moment on leadership. An amazing example that he learned from his father. [28:36] Evan would rather err on the side of trust as opposed to distrust. He values positivity in his team. [34:24] When everyone knows the key things in the company that are trying to be achieved, everyone works in the same direction.  Seeing the financials and knowing the vision helps key in their role to success. [35:49] Being successful takes grit and determination. Honestly carrying is at the core of who Evan really is. [39:16] Make sure you find the time to grieve. Holding it in is not the way to go. [41:29] All of the principals in the book will make a difference in someone's life. [41:45] Another principle that Evan wants to share is distinguishing fact from opinion. A lot of people share opinions as facts. This makes conversations difficult. [44:38] Take some time and think about your conversations and whether you are speaking fact or opinion.

My ponder today is Cordell Riley of Tortal Training and our topic today is Franchisee Training - the positive effects that a well-established training program can have on a franchise system. In this episode we talk about how any franchisor can design and create a franchisee training program that will maximize results to both the franchisees and the entire franchise system.   Time Stamps 00:00:52               Podner Introduction 00:02:38               Segment 1: Get to know Cordell Riley 00:20:34               Segment 2: Topic Segment 00:54:04               Segment 3: Quick Draw   Cordell Riley Show Notes People learn at different rates based on the modality of the training being delivered. VAK: Visual – Auditory – Kinesthetic What does the start-up franchisor need to think about before developing a training system for the franchisees? Start with a solid foundation (ops manual) Make sure that training is part of your franchise culture – written into the mission and vision statement Measure the amount of training that is being delivered Ensure that training is aligned with business goals Strive for a blended solution – digital, audio visual, classroom format A solid training program will lead to franchisees feeling supported which leads to higher validation scores. Great training versus good training What do you want people to do differently after completing training? Make training fun   Initial Franchisee Training Dos and Don'ts Don't try to cover everything in initial training. Only cover the topics that they need to get up and running. Too much at once will lead to lower retention rates. Do include those topics that have a high impact and short time to master. Do use real world training (hands on) Do utilize “Course of Action” – assignment for franchisee trainees where they have to present how they will use the training that they received. (FREE template available by e-mailing Cordell Riley Do use internal Subject Matter Experts – have multiple trainers Conduct the initial training as close to opening as possible Avoid an “All lecture” training program Engage the trainees Vendors can be useful trainers on certain topics – don't let it become an infomercial. Use quizzes throughout to ensure that franchisees are following what is being taught.   Ongoing Training E-learning – online Field support staff Conferences and conventions Include those topics that have a lower impact and longer time to master. Training is not something that happens during the first few weeks of the franchise relationship. Training is a process that should last for the life of the relationship.   E-Learning E-learning is a delivery method that you will use to keep a constant flow of training to the franchisees Use prior to initial training to bring new franchisees up to speed before initial training Use as part of your ongoing training program to promote new products or services, etc. Short, logical chunks of training – don't pump all of your training into one session. 10 minutes or less Make the training role based and relevant.   E-learning Dos and Don'ts Do engage primary adult learning senses – Visual – Audio – kinesthetic   Repetition is key to high retention   Websites mentioned in the episode: Trainers Warehouse – www.trainerswarehouse.com   Cordell Riley Tortal Training www.tortal.net cordell@tortal.net   Kit Vinson FranMan Inc. www.franman.net kit.vinson@franman.net 217-736-3939 x 1
