This document outlines Netflix's culture of freedom and responsibility. Some key points:
- Netflix focuses on attracting and retaining "stunning colleagues" through a high-performance culture rather than perks. Managers use a "Keeper Test" to determine which employees they would fight to keep.
- The culture emphasizes values over rules. Netflix aims to minimize complexity as it grows by increasing talent density rather than imposing processes. This allows the company to maintain flexibility.
- Employees are given significant responsibility and freedom in their roles, such as having no vacation tracking or expense policies beyond acting in the company's best interests. The goal is to avoid chaos through self-discipline rather than controls.

HR transformation
Why should we transform HR?
Because we work with people, with adults, not with numbers - resources - capital share.
Because we are living in 2012, no more in 1980. Technology, flexible work environment and communication tools (2.0) can help HR to burn their Rube Goldberg machines.
Because we know that happier people are working better, faster, with more creativity for better results.
Because HR people exist to be helpful to people, teams and organisation; they don't exist for themselves.
Because HR people are also entitled to be happy at work and to spread happiness around them.
Let's transform HR onto #HappyHR
Our Iceberg Is Melting
The document summarizes a fable about a colony of penguins whose iceberg home in Antarctica is melting due to climate change. Fred, an observant penguin, notices cracks in the iceberg and tries to warn the other penguins. At first the leaders do not believe him, but his warnings are eventually validated. A team is assembled to develop a solution, and they decide the colony should adopt a nomadic lifestyle and regularly change locations as the icebergs melt, rather than trying to repair the melting icebergs. The general assembly of penguins is informed of this new strategy.

Maximizing Business Success Through Organizational Agility
Agile organizations look across the multiple dimensions of organization structure, processes, talent, leadership, and culture and embed flexibility in each. Through a system of HR practices and an integrated foundation of management practices, agile organizations are able to consistently respond to environmental trends and disruptions, move closer to the speed of ideas, and seize market opportunities. These collective capabilities drive sustained organizational performance. In this study, CAHRS Research Assistants Nicholas Born, Kasey Kovack and Matt Olson discuss the results of their research on organizational and HR agility. They share specific examples as they relate to:
• Key catalysts for organizational agility
• Obstacles to agility and knowledge sharing
• HR’s role in driving the right people outcomes to support the organizational culture, human capital, and knowledge exchange opportunities that support organizational agility
• What specific talent management and HR practices drive organizational agility
• Opportunities to assess impact of organizational agility
The Employee Experience: From Engagement to Energy
This document discusses how organizations can create an engaging employee experience to drive business performance. It highlights trends like the changing demographics in the workforce, the impact of technology, and how employees are feeling overwhelmed. Organizations are urged to focus on employee well-being, engagement, and development to create an irresistible workplace where people have energy and passion for their work. Factors like meaningful work, flexible work environments, learning and growth opportunities, transparency and trust in leadership are identified as important for employee vitality and performance. The use of feedback systems and a focus on culture, inclusion and purpose are presented as ways for organizations to build sustainable engagement.
Seminar training from the back of the room
The document provides guidance on using effective training techniques based on brain science and learning principles. It discusses 6 learning principles that trump traditional teaching methods: movement, talking, images, writing, shorter sessions, and variety. These principles are supported by quotes and research. The document also introduces the 4Cs training map model for designing interactive sessions around connections, concepts, concrete practice, and conclusions. Sample activities are described like myth/fact games, teach-backs, and action planning that reinforce learning. The key message is that an engaging, participatory approach centered on these brain-based techniques will lead to a more memorable and impactful learning experience.

4 Disciplines of Execution
If you’re leading people right now, you are probably trying to get them to do something different. Whether you lead a small work team or a whole company, a family or a factory, no significant result is achievable unless people change their behaviour. To be successful, you will need their commitment. Getting the kind of commitment that will endure in the midst of the daily grind is not easy. When you execute a strategy that requires a lasting change in the behaviour of other people, you're facing one of the greatest leadership challenges you will ever meet. With the 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX), you are implementing a set of proven practices that meet that challenge successfully every time.
The real enemy of execution is the whirlwind, the massive amount of energy that's necessary just to keep your operation going on a day-to-day basis. The 4 Disciplines aren't designed for managing your whirlwind, but for executing your most critical strategy in the midst of your whirlwind.
The 4 Disciplines of Execution (4DX) is a simple, repeatable, and proven formula for executing on your most important strategic priorities in the midst of the whirlwind. By following the 4 Disciplines –– focusing on the wildly important, acting on lead measures, keeping a compelling scoreboard, and creating a cadence
of accountability –– leaders can produce breakthrough results.
4DX is not theory. It is a proven set of practices that have been tested and refined by hundreds of organizations and thousands of teams over many years. When a company or an individual adheres to these disciplines, they achieve superb results –– regardless of the goal. 4DX represents a new way of thinking and working that is essential to thriving in today's competitive climate.
What the 4 Disciplines of Execution are and why they work.
• How to execute your strategic priorities and get results.
• How to effect change in human behaviour to achieve your goals.
• How to install the 4DX in your team and organization.

The document reviews expectations, milestones, and learner plans. It also explains the value of understanding one's learning style and provides strategies for different styles.
What Kind of Learner Are You?
Today’s students and teachers are always seeking the latest technologies available both for personal and school use. Technology can assist them in attaining the knowledge they desire and help make learning more interactive and tailored to different learning styles.
The three most common learning styles are visual, auditory and kinesthetic. Some
people listen more attentively to a lecture while others are more alert during a visual presentation. Meanwhile, others are busy taking notes or practicing the skill.
Knowing your learning style can be helpful for finding the right way to interact with colleagues and get the most out of meetings. What kind of learner are you?
Types Of Learning
There are three main types of learners: visual, auditory, and tactile/kinesthetic. Visual learners prefer using images and spatial understanding to learn. Auditory learners learn best through listening and speaking. Tactile/kinesthetic learners learn by experiencing things hands-on and acting things out. Students should understand their own learning style to maximize their learning potential and make lessons more engaging. Knowing whether you are a visual, auditory, or tactile learner can help you choose effective study strategies.
4 Learning styles by Kolb
This document outlines the four main learning styles identified in Kolb's learning styles theory: activist, reflector, theorist, and pragmatist. The activist learns by doing activities like brainstorming and role-playing. The reflector learns by observing and thinking, preferring activities like questionnaires and feedback. The theorist learns by understanding theories behind actions through models and stories. The pragmatist learns by applying ideas in real-world practice through case studies and problem-solving. The document provides strengths and weaknesses of each style.
Learning styles and strategies.
The document discusses sources of variation in second language learning, focusing on factors related to the language learner, including motivation, learning styles, strategies, and individual characteristics. It covers topics like integrative vs. instrumental motivation, the influence of culture and environment on language learning, and implications for adopting style-based and strategy-based instruction approaches to accommodate different learners.
Learning styles (power point)
The document discusses different learning styles, including the visual learning style. It describes the VAK model which categorizes learners as visual, auditory, or kinesthetic based on how they receive and process information. Visual learners tend to observe things like pictures, demonstrations, and films in order to improve their knowledge. They understand written instructions better than oral ones and use highlighting, color coding, mind maps and other visual techniques to memorize information.
Learning style ppt
This document discusses learning styles and how understanding your own learning style can help you learn more effectively. There are three main learning styles: visual, which involves seeing and reading; auditory, which involves listening and talking; and kinesthetic/tactile, which involves hands-on activities. The document provides examples of how each type prefers to learn and techniques to help with learning for each style, such as using pictures for visual learners or discussing material aloud for auditory learners. Understanding your dominant learning style can improve productivity, achievement, problem solving and learning overall.
Learning styles
This document discusses learning styles and the VARK model of learning preferences. It introduces the four categories in VARK: Visual, Aural, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic. It then provides a questionnaire to help determine a learner's preference, including examples like assembling furniture or setting up a phone. Based on the results, it describes each of the four learning styles in 1-2 sentences and provides suggestions for how learners with that preference can best take in information. The document concludes by asking if the reader agrees with their determined learning style preference.
Leadership Styles with Examples
There are several leadership styles that can be adopted in different situations: autocratic, bureaucratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. The autocratic style involves a leader retaining power and authority without staff input, while bureaucratic leadership manages through procedures and rules. Democratic leadership encourages staff participation in decision-making. Laissez-faire provides little direction from the leader and gives staff freedom. The most effective style depends on factors like the manager's background, the staff being managed, and the organization.

LEADERSHIP SELF-ASSESSMENT FOR TALENT RETENTION
From my experience, most executive leaders, and especially those with bleeding hearts for their causes, want to partner with and inspire their teams. Most want their employees to thrive and to see staff reinforce their organization’s brand values. Most want to understand who their employees are on a personal level and spend time engaging with them. So, a level-headed leader is never completely shocked when great employees leave nor do they deny being a key reason for the staff member’s departure. And then, there is the out-of-touch leader who is simply unaware of the impact that their actions have on their employees.
