Hello. I would recommend that you look at "High Impact Training: Getting Results and Respect" by Todd Lapidus; Jossey-Bass/Pfeiffer, San Francisco, CA. ISBN 0-7879-4642-7. Lapidus himself recognizes that the book is not about presentation and flip charts, but about the ability to structure training so that it addresses the needs of the target—not necessarily the needs of the corporate entity. This book, more than any other, opened my eyes to a functionality that is required to be a successful trainer—and more importantly, to be in demand as a trainer. Hope that's helpful.
