How Xerox Services is Driving Learning Culture with New L&D TechnologiesDavid Blake
Bersin by Deloitte research suggests that the single biggest driver of business impact tends to be the strength of an organization’s learning culture. But most of today’s workers are increasingly overwhelmed, distracted and impatient. They’re also now empowered to direct more and more of their development, often using outside resources. As a result, building a culture of continuous, everyday learning is a growing challenge for many L&D teams. New tools and emerging technologies can help, but building and sustaining an effective learning culture also demands that L&D professionals embrace new ways of thinking and working.
In this presentation you will learn:
-What learners can teach L&D professionals about learning
-What types of technologies can enable continuous learning

The 5 Barriers to Effective Training Programs and How to Crush Them - Webinar...BizLibrary
Even in organizations where training and development priorities are closely aligned with business goals there’s plenty of room for improvement.
So, the question is what barriers do we need to be overcome if training and development departments are to increase the value they add to workforce performance and productivity, and remain relevant?
In this webinar we'll outline the 5 barriers to effective training and development programs and best practices for overcoming those barriers.
1. Efficiency -
2. Status Quo - inertia and risk aversion.
3. Convenience - throwing training at the problem and hoping it works.
4. Training Mindset - moving from a focus on training to performance.
5. Manager Support - managers are the single most important factor in improving employee performance.

Learning teams have high aspirations for their organization — 94 percent seek improvements in productivity, engagement and business agility, yet less than one-third achieve the results they desire.
How can we do better?
To answer this question, Laura Overton, founder of Towards Maturity, has been working with learning teams from companies of all sizes for over a decade.

Jacky King & Zsuzsanna Ujhelyi
Learning & Development at VSO International
VSO’s mission is to bring people together to fight poverty: but bringing people together within VSO is a challenge. The organisation is dispersed across 22 countries, mainly in Africa and Asia; diverse in their professional and cultural backgrounds and their client bases; and “strangers” in that they must build strong, trusting relationships with colleagues we may never meet face-to face. To meet these challenges, Jacky and Zsuzsanna set themselves three goals in late 2013: to provide the necessary technology for everyone to do their jobs well; to experiment with using this technology innovatively; and to access and share information about programmes effectively.
This presentation will take you through some of the ways they achieved these goals in 2014.

Definition: Benchmarking is the process of comparing key performance indicators for one organisation with the indicators of others who are considered to represent the industry standard or best practice for that field.
Since 2013, the Towards Maturity benchmark has concentrated on identifying the business impact of learning innovation and has uncovered 6 workstreams of behaviour that consistently influence results. This is tracked through the Towards Maturity Index. Those in the top 10% of the index, the Top Deck, are delivering more organisational agility and individual performance.
What are they doing differently?
Main message - it is clear that L&D leaders around the globe see their role in the future as an enabler of self sustaining learning culture that builds business performance and agility
Top business priorities
They are also focussed on benchmarking as a means of improving their own performance, moving away from old style benchmarks that focus on cost and input ( that lead to more cost cutting and demand for more for less.
Instead they are benchmarking against outputs and effective practices, leading to a focus on prioritising actions and new ideas that help the HR teams improve their own performance.
The towards maturity Index is calculated from 6 workstreams of behaviour that consistently contribute to great performance – see www.towardsmaturity.org/static/towards-maturity-model/ for details
Today’s knowledge workers are more connected and more resourceful than ever before.
Top Deck understand that and tune into the needs of their audience = they are consumer driven
The Towards Maturity Benchmark programme deconstructs and investigates the different behaviours within the 70:20:10 model to understand the extent to which different aspects of this model are being applied by L&D professionals in today's workplace.
Formal learning index
In the Formal Index we consider the extent to which formal learning interventions are aligned to business need, user focused, blended/flexible, learners are recognised, that programmes remain relevant to work need - aspects of the '10'
Calculated on the way that organisations have answered the following questions
We use defined performance support practices to support learning transfer after formal training
We analyse the business problem before recommending a solution
We apply storytelling techniques in our instructional design

We blend our use of several different learning technologies (from social media for collaboration to content delivery)
We train classroom trainers to use technology to transfer learning to the workplace
We remove content that is no longer relevant
We map learning interventions to our competency framework
Where appropriate we provide micro-content (i.e. under 10 minutes)
We pull key stakeholders together into a steering group to support programme design and implementation
We apply techniques such as spaced learning to aid retention and application of learning
Social Learning Index

Our managers recognise the value of on-the-job learning

When we look at the actions of the top performing people teams in pure black and white – we see common sense, but not common practice.
The secret sauce of the top performing people professionals is execution- they walk the walk vs talking the talk
Instead they are benchmarking against outputs and effective practices, leading to a focus on prioritising actions and new ideas that help the HR teams improve their own performance.
