I recently attended the UKSCA tutor training course. We were discussing how much information we actually take in during workshops and seminars and the facilitator shared this with the group:
We hear 50% of what was said...
We actually listen to 50% of what was heard...
We only understand 50% of what we listened to...
We only believe 50% of what we understood...
We only remember 50% of what we believed...
So we only actually remember 3% of the information that is given to us during workshops and seminars (this must have been the 3% that I remembered!!!).
Worth remembering when you are coaching and presenting.
