A picture is worth a thousand words.

In other words a picture shows me at a glance what it takes dozens of pages of a book to expound.


In our series of Biz Pod Showcases we also explored Video Podcast as an educational tool. Looking at the three different ways people take in information - visual, auditive or tactile/kinesthetic - we found that Video Podcasts cover two out of the three different learning styles. Of course people don’t just learn one specific way but certainly there are preferences in which way each individual can be educated best. Adopting Video Podcast as an Educational or Training tool chances are high that your audience is more receptive than to a memo, newsletter or a voice message.

For our Showcase we featured Bill is the Head of HR of our Showcase Corporation. Professional further development is important and part of the company culture. To educate his staff about conflict management Bill uses a series of Video Messages. In this Video Messages Bill speaks about the O.T.F.D Method that helps in a practical way how to deal with conflict situations at the workplace
