Location: The African Savanna Date: Fifty-Thousand Years Ago A group of prehistoric hunter-gatherers are seated around a fire, their bellies full with the bounty of a successful hunt. Gorg, the alpha-male, recounts proudly how he threw the sharpened flint-tipped spear at the running antelope, resulting in the animal’s immediate death. Spared the typical hours of tracking an injured beast under the hot sun, the hunters enjoyed a rare easy day, expending few calories yet consuming many.

Here we are – the last in the Learning Rebels Series – ATD 2016 It’s a Wrap! While at ATD 2016 I finally met up with Homz and Priyanka. We had been followers of each other for awhile and Homz in particular was chasing me down to get his Learning Rebels badge – which is well deserved! I was really wanting to catch up with them as they were the only “couple” I knew attending the conference together.

There is are specific needs that need to be met and the training program is created around satisfying those needs. Ironically, despite formal learning being the primary method for elearning, live-training, and virtual training events, it only accounts for roughly 10% of what we learn on a day-to-day basis.

Guest Post by Stephen Gill. This blog originally posted on The Performance Improvement Blog. As David Grebow explained in his post about The Learning Curve and The Pivot Point , unless formal training (courses, workshops, seminars, webinars, etc.) is followed by informal learning interventions, at the Pivot Point in the learning curve the knowledge and skills acquired in those formal experiences will not be applied and will be forgotten.

Most professionals in the learning space have used the words “pedagogy” and “andragogy” before. Unfortunately, the terms are often used interchangeably and therefore, incorrectly. Broken down, pedagogy and andragogy essentially translate to “child guide” and “man guide” respectively. It might seem like a case of a tiny detail and a nitpicky eLearning agency, but there is actually a vast difference between adult and child learning theories.

Whether it be a novel, an art project, or a formal business presentation, we all take on creative work from time to time that requires us to organize our thoughts. One tried-and-true method of doing so is to use a cork board. We’ve all seen the classic image in movies and television of some reclusive genius pinning photographs, maps, and newspaper clippings to a wall, feverishl

But there is more to being a good leader than being completely honest all the time. It means using communication strategies that match the situation.
