GWO BTT: The big industry problem that nobody's talking about
4.20 MB
In a world full of overcomplicated training and corporate jargon, we keep it simple: no bullshit. Because learning only sticks when people feel free to ask, challenge, and actually understand.
At WTS, we say it often: “No bullshit." - because it sums up exactly how we train.
No fluff. No overcomplication. Just the space to learn, ask, and understand.
Like our “we don’t do tick boxes” motto, it’s not a slogan but a mindset. One that runs through everything we do, from how we teach to how people feel when they walk through the door.
The wind industry can be full of acronyms, assumptions, and unspoken expectations. So we keep things clear, human, and focused on what really matters: helping people learn and do their jobs safely and confidently.
What it really means
When we say "no bullshit", we mean being honest about what works. Our training isn’t dressed up with buzzwords or slides that look clever but teach little. Every part of it, from exercises to conversations, is built around real systems, real challenges, and real understanding.
And "no bullshit" means no ego, and that’s where mindset comes in.
No ego means we don’t care what job title you’ve had, how long you’ve been offshore, or how much experience you’ve got behind you. When you come to WTS, you’re here to learn and that’s the point.
If you’re serious about that, you leave the ego, the preconceptions, and the comparison at the door. You come in open, curious, and ready to ask the questions you’ve been holding back for years.
Because when ego gets in the way, learning stops. But when you drop it, that’s when real understanding starts - when people stop performing, start helping, and build confidence from the ground up.
How it plays out in the room
It’s common for a technician to walk into our training room and finally ask the question they’ve never felt comfortable asking on site.
“Does it matter which way the red and black probes go when I test voltage?”
“I’ve always wondered what’s inside a terminal block.”
“What do NO and NC actually stand for?”
“What do the numbers mean on the wires that go off-page on a wiring diagram?”
These are the moments that matter. Because that’s when you can see the mindset shift; the point where comparison drops, curiosity kicks in, and learning becomes genuine.
We build our courses from the ground up: from fundamentals to fault-finding. We don’t assume knowledge; we build it together. The goal isn’t to memorise procedures but to understand the “why,” not just the “what.”, because when you understand the logic behind the system, you can think on your feet when things go wrong.
Why it matters
When people feel safe to ask questions, they walk out of the room more competent and more confident.
They understand not just what to do, but why it works.
- That’s how safety improves.
- That’s how performance improves.
- That’s how people grow.
We see it every week: learners who start a bit unsure, a bit guarded, and end the session with genuine clarity and pride in what they know.
That’s not luck. That’s what happens when you take ego out of learning and put honesty at the centre.
Our ethos
Our no-bullshit ethos isn’t about being blunt, it’s about being real.
We cut the noise so people can focus on what matters.
We create space where questions aren’t judged, mistakes become lessons, and understanding sticks.
Because when you strip ego and fluff out of training, you’re left with a mindset that builds confidence, not performance.
That’s what no bullshit really means, and it’s why it works.
If that sounds like the kind of learning culture your team needs, let’s talk about how we can build it together.
