Supercharge your learning strategy using easy-to-apply principles from neuroscience

Behavioral science has the power to motivate people to learn and change. But it can be a complex, nuanced subject. Advice previously offered from the learning industry often lacked scientific evidence, but times are changing.

So how can you design a learning experience that actually motivates your learners to learn?

Join digital learning specialist and neuroscience PhD student, Charlotte Hills, (LinkedIn profile) as she brings clarity to insights from the latest research and offers practical tips you can use to motivate people to learn new concepts.

You’ll also hear from Carl Crisostomo, (LinkedIn profile) Saba Product Manager for Content, as he shares how organizations can offer engaging learning experiences while also delivering learning at scale.

Gain insights into:

• Why emotion is a powerful learning mechanism, and ways you can evoke it with learning content
• What ‘loss aversion’ is, and how you can use it to motivate your learners
• How the brain is wired to be social, and ways to engage the social mind to power learning
• How applying behavioral science principles drives learner engagement and learning outcomes

Digital is a top priority for more than 90% of corporate leaders. In fact, organizations are poised to spend $1.7 trillion on digital transformation in 2019.

Business leaders are looking for HR to support the organization’s digital transformation goals through talent strategies.

But it’s not enough to focus those strategies on buying and building digital talent as they won’t drive fast, disruptive, broad innovation that your organization requires.

Instead, your organization needs innovation that is different in speed, type and scale. You need to leverage the broader network of expertise across the workforce and leadership team.

In this webinar, Leah Johnson (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Principal Executive Advisor explores how network innovation strategies can significantly drive higher levels of innovation effectiveness.

Discussion Topics:

• Engage more employees, more constructively, in generating and filtering innovative ideas
• Increase leader risk-taking with a shared approach to making tradeoffs and risky decisions
• Generate momentum for innovation by leveraging social connections
