Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

36. 1. Demographic trends
• The population is changing – over the next 10 years, the number
of older people will increase
...and as baby boomers hit retirement age, catering for this group
(who don’t behave like “old” people) will be vital
• There’s also been a mini baby-boom – leaving the “squeezed
middle” to care for (and finance) the growing numbers of young
and old
• There are increasing numbers of UK residents born outside the
country – but their leisure habits are often poorly understood
• The traditional family unit is less common than it once was – but
this isn’t always recognised by businesses
37. 2. Technological trends
• Since 2006, there has been an increase of over 100% in the
number of domestic trips booked online…
• ...mobile devices have changed how we use the internet…
• ...yet not all businesses have a website yet (and if they do, it’s not
always mobile enabled)
• Near universal internet penetration in the UK + proliferation of
holiday-related UGC mean that the consumer has more
information than ever before to help make a decision
38. 3. Leisure time / economic trends
• Despite the recession, spending on leisure and recreation has held
up – money may be tight, but work life balance is vital
• ...but value-seeking (and the role of great deals) will remain
crucial
• It’s not just about “the big holiday” any more - the average
English holiday is getting shorter and shorter with people taking
portfolios of trips
• ...and we’ve changed how we plan – last minute is ever more
common, making it hard for businesses to predict customer flows
39. The way the wind is
blowing
• The number of domestic
overnight trips taken in
England fell back by 9% in
2014, while expenditure
declined by 3%
• The North / South divide
41. Structural Change
• The Triennial Review of tourism
• Select Committee
• Product development and
experiential tourism
• It is going to be challenging
National balance
International competition
Phase 2 of savings
Fewer, stronger destinations
• Delivering great experiences
42. The Awards for Excellence continue to be a great opportunity
to showcase England’s fantastic experiences.
