Are you developing and deploying learning with the most efficient process possible? Agile development is no longer just for software developers; it’s being rapidly adopted in the Learning and Development industry because it’s proving to be more effective!

Forget old-school, long-winded content creation processes. Learners want content on-demand in a modern format. Your SMEs could be recording “how-to” videos on their smartphones to share with learners on the fly with multi-lingual captions.

Join Dr. Christian Weibell, Ph.D., (LinkedIn profile) and Jon Tota (LinkedIn profile) from eLearning Brothers to find out why the role of an instructional designer is changing based on modern learner expectations.

Highlights include:

• Why organizations are seeing better results with peer-to-peer knowledge sharing
• Why learners’ expectations of content have changed, and you can take advantage of it
• How to facilitate a modern agile content creation process

The global pandemic, caused by Covid-19, has forced many people to work from home. In fact, of all U.S. workers, 56 percent could do all or some of their work from home. According to Global Workplace Analytics (GlobalWorkplaceAnalytics.com), it is estimated that:

• 5 million employees (3.6% of the U.S. employee workforce) currently work-at-home half-time or more
• Regular work-at-home has grown 173% since 2005, 11% faster than the rest of the workforce (which grew 15%) and nearly 47x faster than the self-employed population
• 43% of employees work remotely with some frequency
• 62% of employees say they could work remotely
• Studies repeatedly show desks in central offices are vacant an estimated 50-60% of the time
• 80% of employees want to work from home at least some of the time
• 35% of employees would change jobs for the opportunity to work remotely full time (47% of Millennials and 31% of boomers); 37% would do so to work remotely some of the time (50% of Millennials and 33% of Boomers)
• Flexibility is one of the highest-ranked benefits by Millennials

Yet few managers have been given training on how to manage work-from-home employees, and fewer still have been given special training on how to encourage group dynamics and group interaction among virtual work groups or work teams. As nearly everyone knows, working from home is not the same as working from a central office, and it requires new management approaches and new ways for workers to work together to achieve results.

Virtual group coaching is the term used to describe efforts by executives, managers, team leaders, or employees to encourage group dynamics in virtual work settings. It is a specialized term used to describe a way of reinventing so-called process consultation, which is a change effort designed to facilitate improvements in group dynamics among residential (work-from-a-central-office) employee groups.

Upon completion participants will be able to:

• Define virtual group coaching
• Describe the characteristics of highly productive virtual groups
• Summarize how to facilitate more effective interaction among work-from-home employee groups
• Discuss a model that can guide implementation of a virtual group coaching effort
• Evaluate how well a small group or team is working together and identify ways to intervene to improve group interaction to get more effective work results from a team
