This is one of the biggest mistakes I've seen clients and students make. I say this to clients and students all the time. Don't just set a chief initiative that looks good on paper but fails to account for your non-profit's unique circumstances, resources, history, etc. But it really boils down to one thing: Focus looks good on you!

Mayer’s research is from the 1990s, but the finders were recently validated again in a study from Carl Wieman that college students learn more, attend class at higher rates and are more engaged in their education when teachers take a more interactive approach in the classroom.

This is where you identify the learning goals, audience needs, existing knowledge, and other background by doing audience research. Ideally, audience research should be done before you design your workshop or course. I want the training to be transformative and that happens by being a guide on the side, not the sage on the stage.
