Back in my high school Spanish class I struggled to learn a new verb form. It didn’t fit into the neat little list of “I,” “you,” “he,” “she,” “we,” and “they.” I had no clue what to do with it. Then someone informed me, “It’s basically ‘y’all.’ You use it when talking to several people at the same time.” Of course! It suddenly made sense. Using analogies as explanations can be a very helpful tactic, as long as you have the right analogy.

As we speak there is a new technology rage about to enter the stage, Learning Experience Systems (LES). This new technology entrant is a good thing. Yes, we are headed in the right direction. And yes, we are bringing learning opportunities closer to the Learner at the Point-of-Work. But still…I have to ask, are we really addressing the Other 95% or are we just dragging the 5% closer to the Point of Work?

Let me first say that using a learning management system is not a requirement in any context.

I asked this question in the L&D Revolution LinkedIn group I have to support the Revolutionize L&D book , but thought I’d ask it here as well. And I’ve asked it before , but I have some new thoughts based upon thinking about McChrystal’s Team of Teams. Do we use a Dual Operating System (Dual OS), with hierarchy being used as a base to pull out teams for innovation, or do we go with a fully podular model?

We live in a world of full of distractions. How can we avoid being pulled in a thousand directions and continue to thrive? Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is on the rise.

What Does a Subject Matter Expert Do, Anyway? SMEs May or May Not Be Instructors. Subject matter expertise can be part and parcel of instructing. A K-12 teacher is both an instructor and an expert in their subject (like fifth-grade math); a college professor is often a subject matter expert (SME) first (researcher in genetics) and a teacher second; corporate trainers often spend years in the field and then transition to teaching newcomers.

Millennials care about their growth and development. They want to know how they can improve their performance and the performance of their team. End-of-year performance reviews are often not sufficient or timely enough to facilitate employee growth. Live, candid feedback, similar to the in-game adjustments athletes give each other, is most useful when helping someone to adapt, adjust and grow.

Recently, I taught in a leadership program that asked participants to give presentations on key lessons from their past. One of the participants, Josh, asked if I would be willing to give him feedback afterward, and I agreed. Josh spoke for about 30 minutes, and I had five pages of thoughts and questions for him to consider. Another participant who had spoken earlier overheard the conversation between Josh and me and asked if I had any feedback for him.

“We just need our people to just become more resilient.” This comment is likely written into the principles of your leadership framework and often repeated by senior leaders in town halls. I’ve found this phrase frequently echoed in mature organizations that are struggling to innovate or manage through change and in upstarts where there is still enthusiasm but people are working like crazy to make deadlines or lift a product or service out of creation and into the next development phase.

Workplace safety shouldn’t be taboo. In fact, it’s a legal requirement to protect workers and to abide by the regulations of OSHA and other risk management companies. That being said, the average safety training course can take at least one hour to conduct and can take even longer to retain. Though this time away from production is necessary and encouraged to complete safety training, it is costly to businesses.
