Context & Challenges
• New business models• Technology changing service delivery models
Digitisation of Services
“There is a huge and growing need for new employees with digital skills from all
backgrounds.”
“There is a particular shortage of talented and experienced tech savvy
people.”
Core Challenge
“The business wants to reduce training time and ensure learning is focused on real scenarios to help transfer application to the workplace.”
Learning Has to Prove Value
Not about cutting costs, learning must:- be based on real business needs- make a difference- change behaviour- improve performance
“There is money for training but it has
to show that it improves sales or
performance”
How is L&D responding?
Advice from your colleagues on ten things that work
1. Work with the business Make learning business focused, practical and applied by:
• consulting with the business• involving them in the design• building learning around real business challenges• creating realistic scenarios
“Be a consultant: get really close to the beating heart of your business.”
“Walk in the shoes of your business people. Don’t stay on the outside.”
“Make learning real and as authentic as possible.”
2. Embed learning in the workflowMake learning content more resource driven, shorter, more focused, supportive and performance related.
“We made the information shorter, sharper and easier to access on a just-in-time
basis.”
“We provide a variety of resources that can be accessed just-in-time.”
3. Make it open and available
• Driven by consumer expectations• Available when I need it• On the device I am using
Multi-Device Learning
4. Tap into the power of peers
• Embrace peer learning • Involve them in delivery• Use colleagues as coaches• Provide local mentors/buddies• Encourage sharing and social learning• Support user generated content
Many Examples
“I find out more from Yammer than any other communication channel in our business”
“Stores have really embraced it – section managers love it, people get back much more quickly e.g. anyone got a fault with a zip on
this jacket, yes this is how you fix it.”
“People respond much quicker on Yammer. No way you’d get that response on email.”
5. Leverage Managers• Design in close consultation with managers• Use managers to deliver and support learning• Get managers to track the impact on performance
6. Get Tough with AssessmentUndertake post learning reviews with managersIdentify real examples of behaviour change.
“We are doing scenario-based assessments. We are focusing on knowledge application
and impact on performance.”
7. Innovate
“Be nimble and agile and focus on new ideas.”
“Adopt a prototyping approach – test out new design approaches very quickly, get end user feedback”
