If you’re a leader focusing only on time management practices, compensation structures, benefits and perks to improve productivity and engagement, you’re only treating the symptoms of low engagement and low productivity. If organizations truly want to cultivate cultures with motivated employees,  our leadership speakers help you  to understand the actual causes and tend the roots to create flourishing business results.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”LEARNING OBJECTIVES” tab_id=”1522272015-2-20″][vc_column_text]

  • From neuroscience, understand the Three Parts of the Mind – cognitive (skills and competencies), affective (values) and conative (natural talents) – to more effectively assess internal workforce members’ potential for success in individual roles and the organization.
  • Learn to improve engagement and influence higher workforce productivity by more accurately describing what success in a role looks like based on required cognitive skills (experience, competencies and skills), affective motivators (values and beliefs) and conative strengths (natural talents).
  • Learn the ingredients for improving hiring, retention and promotion decisions to get the right employees in the right roles at the right time being able to map ideal candidates’ skills, values and strengths to specific job requirements.

An organization’s sustainability is rooted in its capacity to transform. Do your organization leaders pay attention only to the process and systems side of change? Do individuals in your organization simply react to change or proactively plow paths through times of transition to promote a fruitful competitive edge? Change will continue to the be new normal and the rate of change will only continue to speed up as technological and other advances influence the world around us. As employee experience leaders who are perfectly poised to plant and water the seeds of the people side of change, our leadership keynote speakers help participants learn how to influence change, and the people involved, more effectively and to minimize the collateral damage inevitable with any new internal initiative.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”LEARNING OBJECTIVES” tab_id=”1522272015-2-20″][vc_column_text]

There’s a lot of talk around needing to build productive, high-performing teams who can achieve this… but how in the world do leaders actually accomplish creating teams that outperform the competition over and over again? Are teams in your organization missing their goals, producing lackluster results, maybe even holding the entire organization back? In short, are there teams in the company that are just plain bad for business?

ICC’s top business keynote and leadership speakers explain what it takes to build truly cohesive, effective teams that make better and quicker decisions, tap into all members skills/strengths for better results, avoid the pitfalls of politics and confusion, stop wasting time talking about the wrong things or the same topic over and over again and create a competitive advantage.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”LEARNING OBJECTIVES” tab_id=”1522272015-2-20″][vc_column_text]Understand:

Were the training programs in your organization developed using traditional classroom methods? Well, meet the Modern Learner whose development needs can’t be touched with your mother’s (or grandmother’s!) old fashioned tactics. Does training in or organization need a reboot? Ask yourself:  How many of the learners in the company remember more than 70% of the knowledge and skills taught during training? And how many of those people actively change their behaviors in the workplace to increase their productivity and effectiveness after their training sessions? Chances are, very few participants upped their game to the level of the organization’s learning objectives. Why? Because study after study reveals that one-shot learning events produce lower return on development investments. For real, “sticky” adult learning to occur that will lead to performance improvement, new knowledge, skills and behaviors must be practiced regularly and over time.

Reinforcement of training topics that encourages on-the-job practice, then, is key.  Only 10% of what we learn is from what we are taught using traditional lecture methods, 20% from social-based learning methods (talking with others to work through problems), and 70% comes from direct experiences and practice in realistic settings (Bersin, 2013). Reinforced learning represents that 70% and can actually boost retention to 90%.

Does training in your organization need to deliver more value to learners and to the company? ICC’s leadership speakers lead a high-energy session that will cover the trouble with traditional training, why it no longer works for modern learners and the 3 Rs of Modern Learning attendees can start to implement to gain measurable effects on training and development ROI.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tab][vc_tab title=”LEARNING OBJECTIVES” tab_id=”1522272015-2-20″][vc_column_text]

  • Increase understanding of the strain between the human brain’s capacity for learning and remembering versus what we know about the Forgetting Curve and its impact on training ROI.
  • Dissect how modern learners learn and why traditional training no longer works for this audience and must evolve meet the changing demands of our workforce in order to meet learning objectives and increase employees’ effectiveness and productivity.
  • Be able to implement the 3 Rs of Modern Learning to create a training revolution in any organization that improves training effectiveness, knowledge and skill retention through training reinforcement, and mastery of new behaviors through guided practice.
  • Demonstrate the 7 pillars of reinforcement that need to be addressed in a good development program to achieve an impact on the organizational strategy.
