As organizations continue to contend with virtual work environments, learning departments are struggling with implementing and engaging learners through virtual delivery methods.

No matter the modality, there must be a process of engagement in place that ensures successful transfer of learning to the workplace.

Using a modified change model, American Management Association (AMA) will outline the critical steps to communicating roles, responsibilities, and processes necessary for a successful transfer of skill development and engagement as it aligns to recognizing competence within your organization.

To increase the probability for a successful implementation you must:

1. Define:

• How do we know what we are doing?
• Why are we doing it?
• Is there vision, clarity, and outcomes?

2. Align:

• Are leaders bought in, why or why not?
• What actions are they taking to demonstrate commitment?
• Is it linked to the learner; do they see value in the intended outcomes?

3. Execute:

• What are the skills, knowledge, and behaviors we are focusing on?
• How will this happen and when?
• Are processes and systems in place to support them?
• Are there barriers we need to remove?

Organizations can ensure a transformative evolution in behaviors that translates into growth and efficiency when following the discussed outline.

In this webcast Jeff will provide insight and share best practices on how to ensure the probability for success in a virtual learning environment and cover:

1. Three core stages of successful implementation
   • Define, Align, Execute
2. The impact of a poor implementation
3. The importance of evidence to support success

Presenter: Jeff Becker (LinkedIn profile) Director, Corporate Learning Solutions American Management Association has 20+ years’ experience in sales generation, leadership development, coaching and corporate education. Prior to joining AMA, Jeff worked in human resources, operations and sales where he consulted and developed executive to mid-level management and frontline associates on change management, strategy implementation, and performance management.
