30 Breakout Sessions 703 Five Keys to Improving Learning Transfer Michael Leimbach, VP, Global R&D; Carl Eidson, VP, Business Development, Wilson Learning Only 15–20% of learning actually results in performance change — and research shows that the best way to improve the use of learning is through manager support and coaching. Learn how to engage managers in their employees’ learning, how to free up managers’ time, and how to improve managers’ ability to coach and support for high performance. You will: ❙ Complete a manager coaching audit — a blueprint for improving the use of learning in your organization. ❙ Understand how to create a system that simplifies manager coaching. ❙ Experience the power of a learning transfer technology platform that maximizes training ROI by automating reinforcement. 704 GIFTS: Great Ideas For Teaching Staff Michele Deck, CEO, GAMES/Tool Thyme for Trainers What gifts do you bring to your job Are you looking for some new ideas for teaching staff hardto-grasp concepts like trust and collaboration Do you want to find a new way to teach critical thinking skills Come to this session and discover some teaching methods that can bring out the best in your staff and yourself. You will: ❙ Experience concrete ways to illustrate conceptual ideas so that everyone “gets it.” ❙ Learn ideas and methods to teach difficult concepts your staff needs. ❙ Discover a new way to hone critical thinking skills. 705 20 Strategies to Motivate Managers to Engage in Training Kendra Lee, President, KLA Group Often a great training program is only as good as the managers who support it. Without their buy-in before, during and after your training may not achieve the business objectives or ROI you intended. Managers can make great subject matter experts, trainers, and coaches with the right motivation. It’s been proven that their reinforcement can drive behavior change and increase training return on investment significantly. But, managers are also too busy with innumerable priorities pulling them in many directions. While they have the best of intentions, they’re frequently unable to see their commitments through. Discover 15 best practice strategies for motivating managers to get—and stay — engaged in training. 706 The “New” Blended Learning: Formal, Informal, and Social David Wilkins, VP, Research; Christina McKeon, Director of Product Marketing, Taleo Studies show blending training methods leads to better results — but it is not without its challenges. For starters, it doesn’t scale well and can’t easily be used across multiple initiatives. Another challenge is its lack of diversity in the underlying model — it’s all expert-led. This session explores new ways to “blend” learning, through formal, informal and social approaches. You’ll learn to: ❙ Generate a diagram of overall learning requirements. ❙ Determine which learning interventions can be used to improve performance. ❙ Describe various ways to blend these solutions. 707 The Orange Revolution: How One Great Team Can Transform an Entire Organization Joel Bishop, Manager Speaking/Training, OC Tanner See how the 70/20/10 L&D model applies to this team-focused training based on the best-selling book, The Orange Revolution. We’ll also discuss research from the never-before published 350,000-person study which shows less than 20% of teams are working anywhere near their optimal capacity. Based on best practices from leading companies, including Zappos.com, Pepsi Bottling Group, and Madison Square Garden, Joel will reveal the five vital characteristics of great teams and provide a powerful, step-by-step prescription for building them. You will: ❙ Learn why high performance teams are crucial to organizational success. ❙ Learn how to develop the five vital characteristics of successful teams. ❙ Take away applicable practices to begin building powerful teams right away. 708 Designing User Friendly Job Aids John Courtney, Principal, Instructional & Performance Designs Instructional Designers are often ‘under the gun’ to develop training and documentation that produce measurable results. Time and money can limit the quantity of material produced, but not always the quality. Job Aids, instructional guides designed to be used during task performance, can enable measurable performance with less formal training. Many of the principles that apply to job aid design and development carry over to online docs, EPSS systems and even mobile learning. Learn to: ❙ Identify when to use job aids (and when not to). ❙ Define uses of job aid formats. ❙ Apply design factors in evaluating job aids. 709 Inside Training Magazine’s Top 125 Companies Moderator: Lorri Freifeld, Editor-in-Chief, Training magazine Hear from learning leaders inside Training magazine’s award-winning Top 125 organizations.
