Section Seven – Practical Application
‘Real Play’
From the Research findings, carefully devised scenarios can be generated to provide the most valuable learning opportunities to underpin all the skills & techniques covered in the Programme.
Potential Real Play scenarios:
A well-established customer has indicated that they are soon to be opening up additional new offices – this presents an opportunity to arrange for the Company to support them with their upcoming needs.
After some very positive feedback and with the upcoming contract renewal imminent – how can the Company give the Customer more high-quality support in other areas of their business?
A Competitor has been to see the client and they have prompted some concerns about ‘value for money’ & ‘quality of service’.
How Real Play works…
The group is split the group into 2 sub-groups, one with our Professional Actor (option available); the other with the Trainer or a willing Participant.
Each group has a brief and has to instruct their Trainer/Actor/Participant on how to approach the scenario supplied.
The Actor and Trainer (or willing Participant) perform the role play(s) as instructed by their respective teams; however, during the action they can be paused for further recommendations or direction.
The outcome is the responsibility of the team(s) – not the performers.
Debrief the full Programme
Individual Action Plans - to be followed through.
‘Best Practices’ for application into the business
Options for Exercises within the Programme
Sample Exercise – Red & White
There is a specific time managed agenda and itinerary, which puts the group under pressure.
The key challenge is for the sub-groups to maximise the commercial value from the task, however there is always a great danger that the individuals attempt to gain financial progress at the expense of the other group!
Debriefing points:
Persuasive communication and influence across barriers
Gaining buy-in when others are sceptical
Strategic planning accounting for others’ behaviours
Sample Exercise – Communication Challenge
Each Participant has different pieces of information, but are not allowed to share it visually. They are only allowed to communicate to work out the solution hidden among the large amount of data.
Debrief:
Structured approach
Maintaining focus through distractions/interference
Active Listening
Controlled communication
Sample Exercise – Persuasive emails
Sample emails are shared to be critiqued and improved upon to be debriefed:
Tone & impact
Making the Data ‘sing’
Influential & motivational language
Customer centric message.
Sample Exercise –Juggling
Each Participant has to pass the ‘Customers’ (Juggling balls) carefully through the system with all the other Participants to reach a profitable conclusion
Debrief:
EQ to read the room and effectively communicate, when the pressure is on
Customer focus and adapting to challenges
Devising a plan that wins buy-in
Overcoming competing ideas to get to ‘best practice’
Consistent commitment, communication and motivational drivers that influenced performance.
Sample Exercise –Critical Path
The group are provided with 30 x discs and some ‘post-it’ notes. (no pens or pencils are allowed) Their brief is to create a grid shape with the 30 x discs, which will act as ‘stepping stones’ for the ‘Critical Path’
But they have to follow the correct order through the grid from the start to finish, which they will have to work out through ‘trial & error’
All of the team must pass through the ‘Critical Path’ worked out on the grid, observing the constraints, within the time limit.
No talking is permitted once they start using the materials
Debrief: -
Clear communication focussing on the ‘client’s journey’
Planning for challenges
Identifying risks and mitigating them
Role allocations & support
Quality control and disciplines
Sample Exercise –Back to Back
Each Participant is positioned back-to-back with a partner.
They have to work out precisely what the ‘statement’ given to the other person is without looking around. Each person has a different brief.

Active Listening
Accuracy in identifying the objective.

The 14 BFO's (Blinding Flashes of the Obvious) Putting People (REALLY) First
The 14 BFO's (Blinding Flashes of the Obvious) Putting People (REALLY) First
Autumn of 1985. It had been a grueling two days. A Manhattan seminar for 'YPO,' the Young Presidents Organization. They cut me no slack, and demanded my full attention, almost [drop the 'almost'] literally '24/7.' But it had gone well. Now it was coming to an end. And I wanted feedback.One guy I'd had really intense-and I thought terrific-exchanges with was Manny Garcia. He was either the biggest, or one of the top five, Burger King franchisees-he more or less 'owned' South Florida, with, as I recall, well over 100 shops. Manny put up his hand and I nodded in his direction. He began, 'Well, Tom, two long days-and I didn't learn one damn new thing.' Collectively people snapped to attention. As for me, call the ambulance and EMTs. Then he continued, 'I learned nothing new, but it was pretty clearly the best seminar I've ever attended. It amounted to a blinding flash of the obvious.'
A BLINDING FLASH OF THE OBVIOUS: THE 'BFOs' ARE BORN.Manny continued, 'This 'excellence' thing is not rocket science, it's things we all know we should be doing. But somehow we get sidetracked. I am now determined I'm going home and putting on the front burner what in fact ought to be on the front burner.' Manny's comments stuck. And stick to this day. No rocket science. 'Obvious' 'stuff' that gets lost somehow, somewhere, amidst the cacophony of daily affairs.
