Why, why, why?

“We now accept the fact that learning is a lifelong process of keeping abreast of change. And the most pressing task is to teach people how to learn.”
Peter Drucker

We realize we are preaching to the choir when we talk about the importance of learning to an audience of talent development professionals. You already know that what you do is critically important to the organization.

But proving it is another matter. How do you justify the ongoing investment on a financial sheet and in terms of actual performance outcomes?

Enter Dr. Robert O. Brinkerhoff, who has made it his life’s work to prove and improve the effectiveness of learning. An internationally recognized expert, researcher, author, and speaker, his concepts and methodology are research-based and in use worldwide. One of his key findings has been the effectiveness of making sure learners clearly understand in advance exactly why they are in training, why it matters to the organization, and why they will need to be sure they are able to apply that training back on the job.

We’re proud of our long-running partnership with him to help our clients implement High Impact Learning Systems^®: The Advantage Way^SM and his robust Success Case Method. Those programs are among the most important tools in our box, and they are even more important now in the face of relentless change as leaders and their charges increasingly have more to learn than ever before.

If you’re interested in becoming a certified practitioner in High Impact Learning to ensure your organization’s investment in learning can get its most impactful return, we’ve recently completed a refresh in our certification curriculum that’s ready for prime time!  We’re accepting a limited number of L&D leaders for enrollment in our new certification learning journey, which kicks off in January 2022.

Consider giving the talent development in your organization — and your career — a refreshing boost. Details here.
