It sounds so nice when a trainer has the type of impact Vidyut has. We will soon freeze the dates (in a day or two) and Vidyut will surely inform you. Looking forward to meeting you Sushil Hi Subhash,

I am definitely interested, but I don't know if I will be able to get leave. When you announce dates, will you email me? I agree with you Sushil, our group had so many problems and even people fighting, and she was so patient. She did not criticize anyone, she patiently suggested what we were doing, and everybody just listened to her. She was able to find good in us even when we weren't acting good. Never scolded anyone or lost her temper. I think she was the only one who didn't. She really tamed the beast for us. Even now in office we try to stop and think what is good when everyone starts fighting. Hi Vidyut,

Well, it was a heartening one hour chat on the phone, in which she made me realize that I was slipping from my goal. I served the Indian Army for 34 years and had a vast and varied training experience. Starting at a grass root level of training recruits to being an instructor on four tenures, to being an examiner and setting papers for promotion and competitive times, I went through the complete grind of training. I also commanded a training establishment at Bangalore and thereafter served at the Army Training Command where we formulated training doctrine for the Indian Army. I trained indoors, outdoors in jungles, mountains, deserts and in riverine terrain. The culture in the Army was very different. We shared knowledge and experience, openly. Training was (and IS) my passion. When I was voluntarily hung my uniform to start an Outbound adventure on my own (in partnership with my cousins), and stepped into the field of corporate culture, the scene was so different. I found trainers happy to be aloof. They generally maintained SECRETS very efficiently. And I liked the way Vidyut says, “..and facilitators are "super stars" of the scene in islands of their own.” Yes they are! I had decided to conduct an train the trainers programme (suggested by a good friend, Dipali Sengupta, an excellent trainer in hospitality). Somehow it was not happening. And when Roger suggested that we do a train the trainers programme, I was a little reluctant for many reasons. I thought it wont work. As Vidyut also said, They are already enlightened! Their cups are full. How will Roger be able to pour anything in them. But she was a solid pillar of strength to say, lets take a plunge and do it. And I readily I jumped at it, as I realized that I was deviating from my inner vision and goal. So, YES. We are doing a Train the Trainers Programme in mid Oct. The detaisl will be up soon. Thanks Vidyut, for your support! You woke me up. Sushil Dear friends,
