Description:
Join Paul Gibbons, author of The Science of Organizational Change, for an engaging discussion centered on the challenges learning professionals face in measuring learning in today's workplace, such as: Can learning professionals be accountable for changed behaviors and for business results? What needs to change to make that possible? Has the industry standard, Kirkpatrick, kept up with the times?
Paul introduces eight strategies for improving learning transfer from the classroom to the job. Expect to learn more about these important challenges:
1) What are the “facts of the case” in terms of results evaluation?
2) What is wrong with Kirkpatrick?
3) How can we improve learning transfer?
4) What are the organizational impediments?
