The trainer was very knowledgeable and gracious in answering team questions. This training is meant as introductory training to Matrix organization, but in talking to team members there were still a lot of questions of what matrix means/how it works. Time at the beginning talking about people pleasing could have been incorporated later after ensuring team had more context about what matrix is and why organizations choose to organize that way, what types of matrix structures are there. Seeing case studies of similar orgs that used matrix and how they used that to solve problems--and potential challenges they faced, would also have given much more context and clarity before discussing the tools (power grids, circles of influence, etc.) I would reorganize the structure of training to make it more effective for this audience
