Aligning L&D With The Business For Scalability

Leveraging learning resources effectively to drive business achievement is essential to shifting the perception of corporate learning.

Learning & Development (L&D) is often viewed as a cost center, but it’s critical in today’s climate to change the perception of L&D so that it’s seen as a driver of results.

A Learning Governance structure that is carefully designed to align learning resources and drive decision making is key. Leveraging this structure to maximize the alignment of Enterprise Learning strategy with business goals and objectives plays a vital role in this paradigm shift.

In this webcast Lindsay Brown (LinkedIn profile) Sr. Manager, Learning and Development, Sierra Nevada Corporation; will provide a close look at how one rapidly growing, innovative Aerospace & Defense company recognized the need to make this shift and how it applied the principles of Learning Governance in the form of a Matrixed Governance Model, which allowed the company to begin the process of achieving alignment and increased impact on the business.

The debate continues as to what the next generation of leaders will need to be successful. While competency models have become the established standard we use to grow and gauge leadership capability, we must also equip our leaders with the ability to successfully navigate a VUCA (volatile, unpredictable, complex, and ambiguous) world.

Current research indicates that the more “competent” our leaders get, the more likely they are to become fixated on what they’ve been good at in the past.

As a result, even successful leaders can lose sight of what they need to become good at next for continued success. Like it or not, most of what worked for past generations does not work in today’s business environment.

We have an agility gap.

This webinar will cover:

  • The Three Levels of Leadership Agility
  • The Character Strengths of Agile Leaders – Why These Strengths Make Us Better
  • The Four Super Skills of Agile Teams – How They Are Revolutionizing the Workplace
  • Putting It All Together – Assessing Leadership Agility: Developing Agility in Our Leaders and within Our Teams

Presenter: Lorraine Leahy (LinkedIn profile) Trainer, Coach, & Consultant Corporate Education Group, has 20+ years of corporate leadership experience. Lorraine has successfully navigated teams through dynamic organizational and technological changes, including three IPOs, multiple internal mergers and several acquisitions. She is a certified Six Sigma Master Black Belt and is certified to deliver and analyze several leadership and personality assessments, including Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Tilt 360 Coach, and Interactive Styles.

  • Have you or your Agile teams had trouble refining requirements on an Agile project?
  • Are your teams struggling with user stories and tasks that are too large for them to handle well?

If so, you and your teams need more guidance to implement backlog / user story grooming.

Backlog grooming is a step-by-step process of taking high-level (“coarse-grained”) requirements and refining them to lower-level user stories and tasks (“fine-level”) that are ready to put into a sprint.

In RefineM’s Backlog/Story Grooming presentation, attendees will learn how to work the process to achieve fine-grained requirements that are ready just in time.

The key to success is leveraging tools and techniques as well as the expertise of your team to refine requirements iteratively.

Presenter: NK Shrivastava (LinkedIn profile) PMP, PMI-RMP, PMI-ACP, CSM, SPC, is CEO of RefineM LLC and an experienced and certified Project Management Consultant, Risk Management Professional, and Agile Coach with over 25 years of experience in project management.

During her decade of research inside hundreds of companies, Sally Hogshead (LinkedIn profile) Author of “Fascinate, Revised and Updated: How to Make Your Brand Impossible to Resist” discovered a new trend.

High performers communicate differently, &
The most valued professionals consciously decide to over-deliver in select ways.

Just as the most successful brands differentiate themselves, so do the most successful people. High performers emphasize their natural traits, earning advocates in the workplace and customer base, and become irreplaceable.

According to the Carnegie Institute of Technology, 85 percent of financial success is due to your personality, and ability to communicate, negotiate and lead. Shockingly, only 15 percent is due to technical knowledge.

In the case of entrepreneurs, they remain in demand even after raising fees and prices.

Increased competition and decreased attention spans make it harder than ever to stand out and win.

It’s not enough to be the best, if nobody knows you’re there, but when you apply your most authentic and naturally fascinating traits, the world sees you at your best and you’re recognized for your accomplishments.

Learning Objectives:

  • Discover the top four traits of high-performing personal brands and pitfalls to avoid.
  • Identify your top two unique personality advantages, and the words you need to authentically describe yourself in all high-stakes situations.
  • Understand the circumstances in which you’re most likely to over-deliver and outperform (and the areas in which you will not).
  • Recognize the signs you are (or are not) perceived as a high performer.
