Honored when Amy invited me to speak for youWhat can I share that would be genuinely valuable for this audience? Why am I not already a member of this group?!Evangelist for a movement in our profession Tie workplace learning & performance MUCH more explicitly to business outcomes You’re my peeps!By its nature ISPI focused on PERFORMANCE outcomes rather than learning outcomes I’ll be joining in 2013 Daunting audience; lots of instructional designers who do work a lot like I doNothing I share will be brand new to you Looking at it in a slightly different angle than we normally tend to Language for working with non-learning-professionals Keep THEM focused on performance outcomes
Introduce selfSomething of an evangelist for the movement in our profession to connect workplace-learning efforts explicitly to business outcomes
Tried “think like a brand-new instructional designer,” but professionalism kicked inGoing for contrast!Make it comically badOne way to see the very familiar in a fresh way is to examine its opposite
Universal: almost all ASTD here + new-hire orientation is everywhereOrientation + compliance training = most perfunctory, dull, unimaginative, therefore INEFFECTIVEIf change your thinking on these, then the rest is easy
THE TWO THINGS: Create opportunities to rehearse target behaviorsProvide enough information for successful practice and no more CONCEPTS TO INCLUDEAction mappingStarts with business goalWhat behaviors result in this goalHow can they practice these behaviors?What is minimum info they need for practice?You don’t build the scaffolding for the whole skyscraper, sinon for first floor; build that, then add scaffolding for second floor, etc.Rehearsal can take many forms – role play, case study, discussions, q&a, panel interviews, reflection, certain forms of note taking (mind mapping, summarizing, predicting)Subconscious doesn’t differentiate real vs imagined; key is to help people vividly imagine application in contextLoL “what the hell is a co-op, and why should I care?”History of co-ops, structure of co-ops, etc – how is that relevant to secretary, forklift guy, VP of finance, etc.?
Behaviors that produce the business goalActivities that let them practice the behaviorsJust enough info to succeed at the activities

What specifically do you need to look up/create/verify/order/etc to implement these ideas you’ve been working on into your next session? What are your specific next actions, and when will you do them? (who needs to be involved? What potential obstacles? How to address?)
