  10. Under pressure – our top 3 • Managing virtual teams (from across campus to across the globe) effectively • Try incorporating video technology more frequently • The demand for more personalized learning that is easy for learners to access and use • Ask learners what their go-to knowledge sources are and why. Incorporate and scale their ideas and options where possible • Need for speed – “I need to learn _______ NOW.” • Seek out and learn from others who have proven success in addressing urgency, e.g., apply Agile’s MVP approach (Minimally Viable Product) to learning solutions

  11. Hit...or miss? • How do you see Leadership Development driving results or missing the mark?

  12. Hit...or miss? Driving results • Incorporating Leadership Development activities into established business update / strategy sessions • Drawing a clear line of sight between how each person’s role aligns with the company’s mission • Hosting regular leadership updates with staff, and using interactive technologies for polling and Q&A (e.g., menti.com and sli.do) to encourage engagement and transparency Missing the mark • Teaching the business to involve L&D at the right time (we’re often called in too late) • Identifying measures that matter to the business • Providing person-centered, succinct messaging and learning

  13. Impact • Do you agree that the three focus areas noted for L&D to drive transformation are the most impactful? Are there other focus areas you've found to be successful? 

  14. Impact • Build organizational agility • More visible role modeling successful behaviors • Rolling out MVP more broadly • Re-purpose existing learning materials • Deliver learner-focused programs • Storytelling • Reverse mentoring • Millennial panels • Expand the definition of partnership • More talent mobility • Being flexible on role definitions as you partner with other groups in the business
