I say feed the ego, and use it to build trust. Acknowledge what ever they are having a pissing match about and show them how the training will help them with it.

They are the manager for a reason and you are being trained for a reason.. the "technicalities" may be very important. It could be your ego that needs checked.

I mean, gong does that. Decent insights, but nothing all that revolutionary. People buy from people and until AI can emulate crippling caffeine addiction in a persons voice, we're safe.
