Grounded in practice

Clark Quinn

I joined them around 6 months ago to serve as their Chief Learning Strategist (on top of my work as Quinnovation , as co-director of the Learning Development Accelerator , and as advisor to Elevator9 ). So, as you read this, I’m in India (hopefully ;), working with Upside Learning.

Happy Holidays and the New Year!

Clark Quinn

I’ve been fortunate to be working not only with great clients, but also with Matt Richter and team for the Learning Development Accelerator (LDA), and with Amit Garg and the Upside Learning team. I’ve been serving as the co-director of the LDA, and as such helped drive a few of the initiatives. I think it went well.

Clark Quinn

There’s actually quite a lot in LXD, but it’s also a lot of overlap with traditional ID practices and processes.

Conference Outcomes?

Clark Quinn

There are some definite learnings, which we hope to bring forward, both for the conference (should we run it again, which we intend), and for the Learning & Development Accelerator (LDA; the sponsoring org, of which I’m co-director with Matt Richter) activities as well. So here are some thoughts on the conference outcomes.

Top down or bottom up strategy?

Clark Quinn

Interestingly, an HR Director sitting next to me was nodding her head during that response about the data. And they can be instituted in ways that address problems yet also develop your ability. Even, to be honest, finding the company’s biggest barriers, and addressing them, isn’t a sufficient response.

Jumpstarting

Clark Quinn

I’m on the Board of Directors for an educational not-for-profit that has had almost 30 years of successful work with programs in classrooms, nationally and internationally. Since then I’ve been working with the organization to start developing a strategy, though I can only advise. For my sins I got to chair it.)
