Description
What’s your favorite Saturday Night Live sketch? Motivational Speaker? Wayne’s World? Two Wild & Crazy Guys?
In this session, you’ll begin seeing classic SNL sketches through a brand-new lens: how they can inspire us to become more fun, creative, and memorable trainers. Analyze how historic SNL sketches can teach you how to lead workshops that’ll make your learners say, “Party on!” Assess how SNL sketches illustrate training mistakes that could cause you to wind up living in a van down by the river. And apply hidden training wisdom from SNL sketches, including the Church Lady’s catch phrase, “Well, isn’t that special?”

About Collin Carroll
Unconventional. That’s a good word to describe Collin. And his road to The Bob Pike Group. But along the way, he’s studied under some of the most successful and participant-centered teachers in their fields. Before starting his career, Collin played football at Virginia Tech and earned a master’s degree from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. He has since served as a TV reporter, advertising copywriter, content marketer, youth pastor and conference trainer. Every stop in that journey has reinforced his passion for creating interactive content that helps people laugh, learn and succeed. Collin loves his six younger siblings, all things Irish, and ‘80s karaoke.
