What separates those who get what they want out of their career from those who don’t?

Feedback. How to receive it graciously and act on it visibly.

We all receive feedback, but we generally have little control over who gives us feedback, and less in terms of their skill in doing so.

Glade Holman (LinkedIn profile) Managing Director Of Park Li & Founder Of LearningBridge will present 6 moves you can use and share with others to make any feedback you receive generative.

Instead of fearing feedback, make it a strength! If you are in the position to help and train other people, you can easily share these insights in your organization.

With these 6 moves you and others can:

• Avoid getting blindsided by feedback and improve your ability to receive it
• Make feedback work for you while demonstrating a generative and growth mindset
• Understand feedback triggers and how to avoid them
• Use feedback to build advocates for your career

At a time when resources may be tight but demand is high, we need to work more creatively with the tools we have. Or, at a minimum, succinctly describe why you need something else and the value it will bring.

In this session, listen to L&D tech experts and practitioners as they provide you with a new way to think about the tools you have and learn how to turn that “learning stack” into the “learning ecosystem” that meets your objectives, supports the culture you want, and achieve goals.

You’ll hear how some of the most well known global companies of all sizes (remember, Twitter has fewer than 4000 employees and Etsy less than 1000) have designed and redesigned learning ecosystems to adapt to remote working and pandemic restrictions. The design is unique to each company but the process is the same and we are about to share that with you.

You Will:

• Identify the learning objections that are “priority” for you in 2021 and beyond.
• Describe the learning culture you have and need to support your objectives.
• Tease out the competencies and features that exist within your learning technologies and create an ecosystem that has your organization positioned to perform.
• Make learning work for your employees and extended enterprise.

Supply chain organizations are unnecessarily complex, hindering their agility to execute work and preventing workforce responsiveness. Complex work design results in complex skills and competencies, and employees cannot prioritize the most essential work tasks and outcomes.

At the same time, most CEOs cite digital capabilities as an area for increased supply chain investment, and they will expect their workforce to be capable of adopting new technologies.

Looking toward 2025, supply chain leaders will need to redesign work to be simpler, focus on capabilities that support digitalization, equip managers to support network-driven development, and design learning to be more actionable.

In this webinar Caroline Chumakov (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Principal Analyst lays out the foundation for executing this new approach.

Discussion Topics:

• Rethink how work is designed to ensure you have all the talent you need for tomorrow
• Understand the skill sets needed to support more digital workflows in your supply chain
• Build more effective learning and development programs focused on network-driven experiences
