The Missing Link in Training & Performance Improvement
Why It is So Important and Eleven Ways to Easily and Instantly Build it into Your Training. All of us want our training to have impact - yet virtually all train the trainer and instructional design processes ignore this critical "missing" link. In this fast-paced, content rich session you'll not only discover what the missing link is (and say to yourself, Of course!!") you'll explore eleven ways to make this link "come alive" in your training sessions.

Afternoon
General Session: Dr. Dan Tobin
The
Fallacy of ROI Calculations
Dan
Tobin is NOT a believer in using ROI as a measure of training effectiveness.
What he does believe is that every training initiative
in an organization should
be tied directly to the organization's goals and strategies. Using his concept
of a "Learning Contract," he will teach you how to ties all learning
initiatives to specific organizational goals, how to better ensure that what
is learned in the classroom (live, virtual, or e-learning) gets applied to
the participants' work, and how to set the right expectations for the results
of your training efforts. The learning contract builds in measures of training
effectiveness from the beginning, rather than trying to justify the money spent
on training after the fact. He will explain why ROI is NOT the right methodology
to evaluate your training programs and provide you with a better alternative.
Dan Tobin is a consultant on corporate learning strategies and leadership development
programs, and a coach to corporate training directors.
With more than 30 years’ experience in the learning and
development field, he has founded two corporate universities,
served as vice president of design
and development at the American Management Association, given keynotes and
workshops on five continents, and written six books on corporate learning strategies.
His latest book, Feeding Your Leadership Pipeline: How to Develop the Next
Generation of Leaders in Small to Mid-Sized Companies, was co-published by
ASTD and Berrett-Koehler several months ago.
