#LearnoByte | Are we wasting time and money on unnecessary training that no one really needs? "𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭-𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨-𝘢𝘯𝘥-𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘭𝘥.

It’s a reality check for the entire L&D community. Too often, we fall into the trap of believing that more training equals better outcomes. But as Will notes, that’s not always the case. 🔹 Sometimes we’re focused on delivering training when a simple job aid or checklist could do the job. 🔹 Sometimes we train too early, and learners forget before they even have the chance to apply their knowledge. 🔹 Sometimes training is just one piece of a larger puzzle, and without performance support, it can fall short. So, how can we shift our approach to truly drive performance? ✔️ Prioritize relevance: Focus on delivering just-in-time resources when learners need them. ✔️ Embrace performance support: Not every solution requires a course—sometimes it's about enabling people with the right tools. ✔️ Break the myths: Let’s challenge long-held beliefs and base our designs on science and proven strategies. ✔️ Collaborate better: Building stronger partnerships with organizational stakeholders can make all the difference in maximizing impact. It’s time to move beyond the "more training" mindset. Let’s focus on smart, targeted interventions that align with real-world needs and drive true performance improvement. At Learnnovators AI®, we believe that reimagining the way we approach learning interventions is key to unlocking the full potential of our workforce. Folks, how is your organization evolving its learning strategies? #LearningAndDevelopment #PerformanceSupport #eLearning #LNDStrategy #WillThalheimer #LearnnovatorsAI #Learnnovators

Learning Leaders, People Directors and Chief People officers, this one's for you 😎   Developing your workforce to enable growth in the years ahead means: ❌ Spending ££££ to grow your already cumbersome content libraries   ✅Streamlining your 'Learning' products to focus on relevant learning   ❌ Spending ££££ by adding more Learning Tech to your existing Tech Stack   ✅Discovering what your people want from your existing Tech, and fixing it   ❌ Reducing the number things you 'push' towards your people   ✅Uncovering what's stopping your people developing and improving performance and fixing it   ❌ Pushing and promoting programmes and initiatives based on what you think   ✅Meeting your people where they're at, with opportunities, experiences and tools to be more and do more, every day   This could be even more simply defined as: 1️⃣ Clearly explaining what good performance looks like for each individual 2️⃣ Discovering what barriers are stopping your people improve their performance 3️⃣ Empowering your people to innovate, experiment and overcome those barriers   And it's definitely not about bringing in AI, or a new software, or a global 'learning' programme. You've tried that before, multiple times, and if it didn't work then, why are you doing it all over again? 🤔 #performanceimprovement #chiefpeopleofficer #learningleaders #transformation
