How can trainers start "breaking the ice" most effectively?

How to start a training is probably a problem that every trainer should seriously think about. As the saying goes, "A good beginning is half the battle". Successful opening lead-in can make the training topics and contents transition smoothly, and the opening is natural and fascinating, thus fully stimulating students' curiosity and interest in learning, forming a good training atmosphere, and then achieving the effect of mutual encouragement and learning between lecturers and students. No wonder many trainers call the opening lead-in "breaking the ice", which makes sense. ?

So, how should we start to get the expected results? Here, I think it is very important to choose the right angle for the opening design of training. No problem. As we all know, a practical training must focus on students and solve practical problems for them. So the cut-in angle is to analyze your audience and then find out the methods and skills to deal with it. According to my observation for many years, no matter what training, there are always the following three types of listeners:

? 1. Good scholars: This kind of students are still in the majority, hoping to learn knowledge, improve their ability, guide and apply them to work, and improve work efficiency. ? Psychological characteristics are: seize the opportunity, study hard, and the opportunity will never return. Time waits for no one; ? Behavior: I like to sit forward, keep my eyes on the class, keep taking notes, respond positively to the teacher, and have relaxed, eager and devoted expressions (of course, these are universal, not absolute, and an experienced trainer can easily see such students by intuition). ?

2. Onlookers: There will not be many such students, but there will be every training. They are often some (or self-righteous) people who are more qualified, experienced and experienced, feel that they know everything, or have a rejection of training. Psychological characteristics: let's take a look and see where it is; Let's listen to what "what moth" can say; Let's sit down and prepare to seize the gap and "turn back"; ? Behavior: the eyes are very picky, half open and half closed; The expression is suspicious and unbelievable; Hold your arms on your chest; The upper body lies on the backrest; Legs crossed or crossed; The voice got weird, and the naysayers booed. Although there are not many such students, they cannot be ignored.
