Question: Some of the potential obstacles that may arise while attempting to train others include a lack of time and money, difficulties communicating due to language issues or other obstacles, and individual variations in learning styles and ability levels. In order to overcome these obstacles, it may be useful to give training materials that are clear and succinct, to provide different channels of contact and assistance, and to personalize the training to the unique requirements of the individual. When teaching other people, it may be good to ask questions to better understand their needs and concerns. These questions may include what their current level of knowledge is on the subject, what particular obstacles they are encountering, and what kind of assistance they need to be successful.
