Mind Tools Interview: How To Transfer Learning to the Workplace

 

“What’s the point of running training programs? That may seem like a dumb question but, often, the purpose of corporate training – boosting productivity by developing people’s skills – gets lost somewhere along the way.”

I was recently interviewed by Rachel Salaman from Mind Tools Learning & Development Insights Podcasts to address this problem. In the interview Rachel asked me to outline the practicalities of Turning Learning into Action – the tool I have developed to bridge the problem of failing transfer of learning.

Listen to the interview to learn about  Turning Learning into Action, including how to design an effective learning agreement, how to manage the follow-up conversations, and why the telephone is a crucial tool in rolling out effective learning transfer.
