PERSPECTIVES
- K E N TAY LO R
There has never been a question that the
role of the learning leader is to improve the
performance of the organization by introducing,
when necessary, an intervention to change the
way employees perform. Similarly, we are also
responsible for the performance of our own
team, where they focus, what company goals
they attempt to impact, what data they track,
and what systems they use.
WE NEED
TO START
INTRODUCING
THE "WHY"
INTO ALL
OF OUR
DISCUSSIONS.
It is common to engage in discussions with those
in our profession surrounding "what" programs
we need to introduce to solve the problem that
we are sure can be solved via training. The good
news is that we have come a long way in clearly
deciding whether or not training is the answer.
Once the analysis is complete and begin to
target the performance gaps, learning and
development teams focus their efforts on "how"
the training is designed and delivered.
There are always heavy discussions around
which modality will be the most effective.
We see the inclusion of various teaching
approaches, content types and platforms into
a given program - be it video, instructor led,
role play, microlearning or coaching to name a
few. I see our focus on "how" beginning to truly
change the way we approach the design and
content in our programs. So what's next?

As part of our role as "leaders" in learning and
development, we need to start to introduce
the "why" into our discussions. Why are we
introducing the program? Why the instructor is
teaching the course may change how the content
is delivered. Why the designer is designing the
program will influence the nature and structure
of the learning, ensuring the input they collect
from SMEs is on point and relevant to those who
take the training. Why the administrator tracks
certain data may influence the approach they
take to surveying participants, and that may
lead them to introduce multiple methods to
check the learner's reaction to the experience.
I really think our next challenge to move the
needle on the impact of the programs we
support is to start discussing the why.
This edition of Training Industry Magazine takes
a look at training in terms of its engagement
and alignment to the outcomes we have as
an organization. As you read through this
collection of practices and approaches, keep
in mind that if we insert more "why" when
discussing the initiatives we create or procure,
the likelihood of engaging the learner and
hitting the performance improvement mark
skyrockets. At least, that's my perspective.
