It’s not as though culture change was easy before the pandemic.

Using training as a lever to move complex human systems into new patterns of behavior was more or less a ninja-level skill even before the whole world went on lockdown.

Then everything changed, again and again (and again!). We went virtual in a sort of all-or-nothing, emergency shutdown way… and then we came back in a sort of catch-as-catch-can, hybridized, random sort of way.

Now we’re trying to get our footing, adding new ways of working to old ways of working in hopes of getting ahead of – or at least, catching up with – a rate of change that seems to be ever-accelerating.

But what about culture?  What of those ever-present patterns of behavior that exert constant influence on how we work, even as they invisibly limit or enhance what we can accomplish?  What can training do about that?

In this interactive webinar, award-winning author, CEO, and repeat Training Magazine presenter Ed Muzio (LinkedIn profile) teams up with Iterative Management Executive Reggie Wilson (LinkedIn profile) to show you how a firm specializing in wholesale culture change adapted training through the pandemic, and what stuck.

Explore…

• How systematic, disciplined application of simple behavioral principles becomes culture
• How anyone, at any level, can create real impact on the broader environment – effecting permanent change gradually and systematically
• How to seed productive, positive culture yourself, simply by enabling your colleagues and associates to create more output and experience less stress in their own work
• What approaches the speaker’s firm added, and what they kept, as they went from live to virtual to blended, always with the same goal of changing culture through changing behavior

Everyone uses PowerPoint and everyone finds it both annoying and irritating. Especially the repetitive tasks, or times when you cry out in frustration that it can’t do something.

Oh, and that’s not to mention 508 compliance issues, which are incredibly difficult to overcome in PowerPoint.

But, you can change things by using add-ins for PowerPoint – magical tools that give you superhuman abilities to do things at light speed, or even things you couldn’t do before.

This session has a brief introduction to what add-ins are and how they work, and then live demonstrations of the best add-ins you can get, from the simple to the complex, including:

• Shape,
• Size, and position tools,
• Ways to seamlessly add graphics,
  • Create custom color palettes,
• Format tables,
• Set master guides, and
• Store an animations library,

… All designed to fulfill your deepest desires to make PowerPoint actually work.

Presenter: Richard Goring (LinkedIn profile) Director at BrightCarbon, (a specialist presentation agency). has helped to write and create thousands of presentations, and coached hundreds of teams to present more effectively using visuals, diagrams, and animated sequences that explain and reinforce the key points. Richard is passionate about improving the way that people present and believes that anyone can deliver a great presentation if given the right techniques and a bit of practice.

Wondering what all the AI fuss is about? You’re not alone! The question is not if AI can help us, but how?

In this workshop you will leave equipped with the skills to leverage AI as your instructional design partner. Together we will explore AI’s capabilities and limitations, ensuring you can use different AI tools effectively.

Be prepared to get hands-on! Working side-by-side, we will put theory into practice! By using the provided cheatsheet, we will analyze learning content to develop rock-solid learning outcomes. As a bonus we will use those outcomes to design engaging activities based on Gagne’s Nine Events of Instruction.

Get ready to:

• Examine AI’s abilities and limitations, setting the stage for its effective use in instructional design
• Using appropriate prompt engineering, direct AI to develop learning objectives that are more action-focused and align with Bloom’s Taxonomy
• Then practice engineering prompt formulas to receive lesson plans and activites that are more targeted and relevant, and less neutral (or generic)
• Identify how the use of roles and personas will direct your AI sidekick to be more helpful and effective

By the end of this workshop, you’ll walk away with a practical toolkit of skills, allowing you to design with greater efficiency and welcome AI as your creative partner in the instructional design process. Ready to supercharge your learning design and have some fun?

Have you heard these complaints from designers and trainers?

• “We want to change our training, but our boss insists on his command and control style.”
• “My SMEs (Subject Matter Experts)  demand that all content must be lectured. So we overload learners.”
• “Our employees complain a lot since we keep training them on the same topic, same subject, over and over again, every year for compliance, but  they are so boring.”
• “Our learners don’t spend time on training and learning, because they are too long.”
• “Our learners find the topics irrelevant.”

The above are just examples of the moaning and complaining of workers, learners, L&D specialists, and leaders. Their “Training Is Broken”. How then, can they fix them?

Ray will discuss the following:

• What are the roots of “evil” in failed or broken training programs?
• How do you classify which one is deeply rooted or is just a lack of knowledge and skills or resources?
• What are superficial fixes and “band-aids” that won’t last?
• How do you fix or improve the problems in the following:?
• Meaningless content
• Long content
• Disinterested learners
• Spoon feeding learning
• Lack of application training
• Boring training

What should successful L&D specialists do? Where is focus fixed in design, authoring, multimedia, platform, and delivery?

When you register you may be able to submit advanced questions on “Broken Training” and receive a response from Ray.
