Not just speed reading. Anyone who has to keep up with reports and books will be able to learn rapid reading strategies to be in touch with the knowledge in their industry.
March 28, 2006 (Press Release) --
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Singapore)
A new program will be released soon to help individuals master their knowledge and build expert content knowledge within a 7 to 21 day period. The reason for learning this skill is simple - speed. With greater productivity, reading will become less tedious and more functional. A recent informal survey revealed that readers often buy books but never finish them, representing a waste of over 80% of the knowledge available within the book. Most other readers never glean the important information that is required of them. The truth is using this new approach, reading will become much simpler.
Stuart Tan, a trainer in NLP, has devised a simple system that will enable individuals to learn and read much faster, integrating study strategies that are the basis of his original accelerated learning program. However, the needs attended to are different.
"In the corporate world, reading requirements are far different than those in school. With a higher level of maturity, adult readers can draw on their mental schema for knowledge while reading and being critical about what they are reading. They don't need too many facts, they need more processes. They don't need to memorize, they need to utilize. Imagine what would happen if you could take a book that suits your purpose or has the information to solve your problems, and then integrate all the knowledge there?"
Managers who have to learn faster than their subordinates can use this method to gather knowledge of various domains of learning including business, people management, self-improvement, IT systems... basically most of the things required to run a business effectively.
Is there any problem with this method? Apparently, the main issue is the command of language, followed by technicality of the knowledge domain. The main reason is the experience a person has in reading that particular category of material strengthens one's mental map.
"If your English is weak, then I can't ensure that you know the concepts well. Therefore, it's imperative that you have a fairly good grasp of the language before the training begins. If your language skills are poor, then you will need some personalized language coaching. For technically dense subjects like law, engineering, accounting and finance, mathematics and other similar subjects, you obviously need more time to read it, because the way the knowledge is structured is not the same as for general business. However, once you know how to read it, you should be able to read that topic area much faster than a novice. I'll even show you how technical subjects can be read in a non-technical way, so that beginners can catch up much faster than before."
The Accelerated Whole-Brain Reading program is a jumpstart program that helps individuals to enforce new rules for reading to help to develop better productivity in learning. It is a two-day program, and is expected to launch very soon. Details will be made available at www.stuarttan.com from April 2006.
