What if engagement wasn’t about getting everyone to participate the same way, but about designing multiple levels of participation on purpose? In this session, we’ll unpack lessons from the Ultimate L&D Throwdown (ULT), a high-energy learning experience that reimagined participation by creating multiple pathways for learners to engage, whether through quiet reflection, structured contribution, or high-stakes performance.
 
In this session, we will explore what we call the Six Degrees of Engagement and discover how roles, tools, and intentional design choices can accommodate different experience levels while still driving meaningful involvement. Walk away with a practical framework to design learning experiences that are more inclusive, more dynamic, and far more effective than traditional content-driven approaches.
