Reinforce lessons by creating projects for teams to complete. Take Pictures: At the end of each module (or lesson) have participants take a picture of the flip-chart, the PPT screen, or something (or people) in the room that will remind them later of the topic. This teaches you a valuable lesson.

But there is a lesson to be learned here. Part of my brain said, can we start this challenge tomorrow? You know, when water isn’t a scary thought? Well, you can see which side of my brain won the battle today. So thus, this becomes my a-ha moment of the morning.

While this may seem extreme and a comedy of errors that makes me feel like I’m a contestant on Candid Camera, it’s an important lesson of having your Plan B in place. Seriously. . Sigh…Plan B . When developing curriculum, or planning for delivery – It is key to plan for failure or at the very least a twist in the road.

This may be an important lesson. So it’s not that they aren’t adults with functioning brains, it’s that we’ve never treated them like one. Airport Craziness = Learning Craziness? I don’t know why people act crazy in airports.

We claim it’s their fault participants forget the lessons presented because they weren’t in the moment and not engaged. There is a common misconception in the training world that people within organizations don’t want to learn new stuff. Well, we’re wrong.

Vyond, (previously known as GoAnimate) is a video animation vendor so I could build my own training videos and use these for microlearning, or full lessons. I learned about a few vendors and resources to try out and see how or if I can incorporate them into my training routine.

I especially love seeing my peers on stage sharing their knowledge and lessons with the audience, and I do regret not being able to attend. I admit that I get a little maudlin over missing out on really good conferences. I get new ideas from peers and learning leaders alike. But does attendance really demand presence?

A fun, overly complex game teaching real life lessons. The things you learn from the game are transferable to real life: Cause and effect, logical thinking, patience, problem solving; just to name a few. Oh, we didn’t know we were learning at the time, but when you think back… you know it to be true.

Leadership does not require a vocabulary lesson or a course on learning psychology and methodologies. Leadership does not want to hear about Kirkpatrick , Mager , Bloom’s , Maslow , Gagne , or other learning processes or methodology. They want to hear about how you are going to support them.

Let others benefit from the lessons gathered. Have groups start a blog about the learning lessons. Assign each group a video task that reflects on a key lesson. Have people take pictures of flip charts on the walls and share thoughts with the class through shared note-taking.

Encourage learning from failure and disappointment, and openly share your hard-won lessons learned from mistakes. Shutting down those who take risks to express a different point of view shuts down engagement rather than encouraging innovation. Show recognition that mistakes are an opportunity for growth. Create space for new ideas.

Reflect on your actions, the outcomes, and the lessons learned. With your “skill BHAGs” in place, the next step is to cultivate a habit of regular self-reflection and active feedback seeking.
