The article focuses on different styles used by trainers during the process of employee training. According to Elaine Biech, author of the book "Training for Dummies," each trainer brings to a session his or her unique style based on four dimensions: content, process, task and people. In that model, content and process lie at opposite ends of a horizontal continuum, while task and people oppose each other on the vertical spectrum. Trainers who are more content-focused will put a higher priority on ensuring that all of the course information is passed on to participants. Trainers who are more process-focused highly value the flow of a training program and work to ensure that it runs smoothly. Most people fall not at one end or another but somewhere along the spectrum. Similarly, trainers' styles fall somewhere between the task and people ends of the vertical continuum. The task dimension refers to all of the steps necessary to manage the learning. The people dimension focuses on meeting the needs of participants, perhaps at the expense of a schedule.
