Video is a unique beast. It's more engaging than a training manual, but sharing it on your LMS (or worse, on YouTube) can create problems. It helps you scale your training worldwide, but every new recording is a pain to produce. And it would be ideal for just-in-time learning, if only it could be effectively searched.

Compliance courses are tedious and difficult to learn. They are full of legal citations, policies, procedures, rules and regulations that learners tune of in the first few pages or seconds of the lessons.

Jane Hart published a study on the "least and most valued learning" (http://bit.ly/2xBQjyH). The study suggests that work experience is the most valued way to learn. However, most L&D designers, developers and leaders have no clue how to "package" or "templatize" work experience sharing to make it organized, easy, repeatable and trackable learning method. Being unable to do this causes a huge missed opportunity for learners to improve their expertise and knowledge.

Management can be, well, difficult to manage. In too many organizations the term itself is a synonym for unnecessary paperwork and uninformative meetings, conjuring an image somewhere between befuddled bureaucrat and dominating parent. But the real function of management - it's highest function - is to keep the organization on track, constantly adjusting resources, activities, and priorities so that the highest priority outputs are delivered despite significant, unforeseeable changes along the way. If you're running a management team you need everyone working together on your higher-level goals, not creating silos and arguments among themselves.

How You Can Evaluate the Impact of Soft Skills Training? When you think about an ideal employee, what thoughts come to mind? You might initially think about the technical skills needed to do their jobs. For example, you'd want an English teacher to have a strong understanding of grammar and sentence structure. But hard skills aren't the only important skills employees should have. Someone who has excellent soft skills would be adept at critical thinking, communication skills, and teamwork. Soft skills aren't as easy to identify as hard skills, which makes it more difficult to evaluate their worth. They're often thought of as "extras" and are put on the back burner. Believe it or not, soft skills training affects more than just your workplace culture. It can give you a competitive edge and contribute to your bottom line. This ebook will help you understand how these skills can make the difference between high- and low-performing organizations. In this ebook, you'll learn: What soft skills look like in real life situations How improving soft skills can impact your business What metrics to look at when measuring the impact of soft skills training How to calculate the ROI of soft skills training Download now!

  High-quality coaching requires not only effort and collaboration between sales managers, reps, and sales enablement professionals, but also agreement on coaching effectiveness and best practices. Without agreement, it’s hard to make improvements and drive increased sales success. To find out how these stakeholders feel about coaching effectiveness, we surveyed nearly 300 sales reps, managers, and sales enablement professionals, asking them fundamental questions about their perceptions and preferences. While we found alignment in some areas, reps, managers, and sales enablement leaders differed in their opinions about coaching quality, coaching needs, and even the impact of coaching on results. Left unchecked, differences between key stakeholders on coaching quality and value can pose a significant risk to revenue goals, and even threaten the relationship between reps and managers.

Employee engagement has become a global dilemma that has cost companies billions of dollars due to lack of profit and productivity. One of the reasons this dilemma has grown so much is because many companies confuse "engagement" with "satisfaction." While there is some overlap between the two, most employee engagement initiatives don't get to the real root causes of disengagement issues, so they never see the results they want.

The purpose of training is to get results. And training is a process, not an event. It begins long before people show up in class (either virtual or face to face) and continues until we see results back on the job.

A generation of instructional designers have found great value in the ADDIE model because it provides a useful framework for development. That framework gets a much-needed update with the ADDEDD model, a fresh take on the planning process that incorporates Agile methodology. As new technologies enter the picture, including prototyping and frequent client communications will grow in importance.

In our hectic, evolving whitewater world of work, challenges abound; but so do the opportunities. Today's employees are expected to meet the ever-changing and fluid needs of the modern workplace with a set of collaborative and cross-functional skills. Yet many traditional Learning & Development (L&D) solutions fail to prepare this generation through "deep learning" and this mistake becomes even more costly when it comes to those in leadership roles. Employees fail to benefit from experiential learning and the unlimited growth potential that exists because organizations do not nurture this capability or create the space for employees to properly apply it.

When Johnson & Johnson adopted a three-tier model for the finance function, a major transformation effort was required. J&J historically operated with consumer products, medical devices and pharmaceutical products as separate business units in 70+ countries. The shift to a shared service required transformation and standardization that impacted people, processes, and organizational structure, enabled by new technologies. This change also presents issues from a talent perspective — and the Learning & Development function has played a key role in driving new skills, interactions and how finance professionals learn.
