Extracting knowledge from various workers is a key competency required for the current project professional.

Whether it involves product requirements, user acceptance criteria, creating the definition of done, determining value of stories in a backlog, or obtaining executive critical success factors, the project professional delivers many artifacts that depend on input from various knowledge workers scattered throughout the organization.

In this session Lynda & David will focus on the approach the project professional must take to have effective elicitation sessions.  You must approach it from the knowledge worker perspective and be able to establish an environment of trust and psychological safety.

They will discuss the importance of humility and that you are eliciting information.

They  will discuss the importance of seeing that environment to facilitate active listening and interactive engagement.

They will also take a holistic approach to the elicitation including setting expectations, eliciting information, and providing feedback.

Finally, they will explore the impact that cultural intelligence is a factor in the overall elicitation and feedback.

Learning Objectives:

1. The importance of utilizing several components of human relationships including humility, empathy, respect, and gratitude.
2. Articulate the entire cycle of eliciting information from initial contact to knowledge exchange engagement, to paraphrase understanding, to follow-up.
3. Use Cultural Intelligence techniques to understand how knowledge extraction techniques must align with the culture of the knowledge workers.

What good does it do participants when the trainer shows he/she can do it?

The real measure of impact is whether the lesson is caught and applied by the audience.

Breakout rooms are a tool to help you facilitate peer learning and make your job as a trainer easier.

Becky’s rule of thumb is never do for participants what they can do for themselves—even in a virtual classroom. The more active they are in their learning, the more they remember and ultimately apply.

During this free 1-hour webinar, you will:

• Discover when to use breakout rooms and how to do it effectively
• Discuss common objections from presenters and participants—and how to overcome them
• Explore how you can add a variety of exercises to keep breakout rooms engaging
• Experience effective breakout room learning activities live on Adobe Connect
