Too many presenters focus on how their presentation is going to LOOK, and not enough to how it SOUNDS.

Can you blow people’s minds with just the words you say? It turns out that presenters can learn a lot from songwriters.

Songwriters create beautiful music using writing techniques to ensure that what they create sounds great, long before they think about creating the music video or stage lighting.

This is exactly how we should approach presentation writing, words first, visuals last.

In this session, Glenn Gibson (LinkedIn profile) will explore this correlation and show you how to put slides in their proper place.

Glen will take a deep dive into:

  • Structure – How to apply a repeatable award-winning structure to your presentations
  • Melody – How to write a “chorus” for your presentation, and apply analogies and stories to hook the ear of your listener
  • Lyrics – How to refine your words to ensure your performance is flawless

Thankfully, both the ethical and practical value of DE&I has become more widely recognized.

But the extent to which an organization is fundamentally and culturally receptive to DE&I improvement is less often explored and less frequently addressed.

In this highly interactive webinar, award-winning author, CEO, and repeat Training Magazine presenter Ed Muzio (LinkedIn profile) will explore two aspects of management culture that directly impact the organization’s ability to realize results from DE&I programing.

  1. First is the question of environmental receptivity:
    • Is the organization in the habit of routinely gathering people of different backgrounds, needs, and agendas?
    • Do regular management and team meetings make a concerted effort to equitably assess and value all contributions?
    • Does leadership and senior management model transparent and fair decision-making even for difficult issues or unpopular tradeoffs?
  2. Second is the question of behavioral flexibility:
    • Does the culture allow members to intelligently contemplate and adopt novel behaviors of any kind?
    • Is new information met with interest, or resistance?
    • Is decision-making nuanced, or do simple ‘either/or’ type arguments dominate the discussion?

In this webina Ed will present a framework for thinking about, and answering, questions like these.

He’ll explore insight into and share language for thinking about how DE&I friendly the broader organizational culture may be, and what the Training or L&D function can do to make it friendlier.

The 21st-century workforce is unique; people have endless options for learning in the ways that best meet their needs. Yet many of the design and development models in L&D seem dated.

That’s where Design Thinking comes in. It’s a modern approach to creative problem-solving that’s iterative, collaborative, experimental and fun.

In this active session, we will explore how Design Thinking is a mindset as well as a method for generating innovative solutions.

You will have an opportunity to participate in a Design Thinking cycle to see how this approach can stimulate ideas for creative, human-centered solutions that fit the modern workplace.

In this session you will learn to:

  • Apply the phases of Design Thinking
  • Interview learners to better understand their perspective
  • Practice idea generation techniques
  • Explore creating and testing low-fidelity prototypes

Lead The Way

To better understand PMI’s Talent Triangle, this session looks at project management through the lens of the Leadership portion of the Triangle.

Plans are useless without effective execution. The role of the project manager is often viewed as a very technical role; tracking progress, measuring costs and filing reports.

TidalShift will look at how the role of the PM is actually a leadership role at its core and what leadership skills can be brought to bear that will not only make your project more successful, but make the job more enjoyable. Talent Triangle – Leadership
