#42: Top 10 Best Practices for "Change" In A Learning Organization<br />

1. Find senior support<br />

2. Hitchhike: Leverage new or existing leadership initiatives<br />

3. Follow the money: Seek/understand funding and why projects are being funded<br />

4. Seek "pull" not "push": Understand incentives and demand, and sell towards them<br />

5. Leverage Account Manager model: Aligns business unit processes with learning center<br />

6. "Grade" each other: Provides joint visibility to senior executives<br />

7. First local, then global: Establishes tangible value propositions for stakeholders "day job"<br />

8. Use the Middle: Real change occurs through the people that do the work<br />

9. Hide the Bits/Bytes: Sell business value, not technology (it's a facilitator)<br />

10. "High touch": Leverage relationships, meetings.."beyond the memo"<br />

#43: Get There<br />

One of my mentors once shared a valuable lesson when trying to design and implement an<br />

electronic system/solution into a busy work life full of inspired (and self-confident) professionals:<br />

- Build it and they will come<br />

- Build it right and they may use it correctly<br />

- Let them build it and they will already be there<br />

#46: Managers: Respect Employee Training Time<br />

Respect the time that employees have scheduled to complete the Web-based training. Do not disturb<br />

them while they are learning, unless it is for a critical business need. Before you interrupt an employee,<br />

ask yourself “Would I pull them out of a classroom training for this issue or concern?”<br />

#47: Link Training To Core Needs<br />

Well executed e-Learning targeted to a specific, core business need works well -- lots of<br />

success stories. General libraries of e-Learning courses work well in some environments, but<br />

are more vulnerable to expense reduction and cultural impacts. Link e-Learning to a core<br />

business need -- I can't emphasize this enough.<br />

#48: Meet Me In The Middle<br />

Don't work "Top Down" or "Bottom Up" -- let them twist together in "The Middle."<br />
