How to get your group to perform like a team

Until research catches up with the real world, talent management professionals may have to take the lead in driving the diversity and inclusion agenda.

Not Looking, Can't See It, Don't Care

You can’t learn if you don’t care. Most of us are used to learning without focusing on its meaningfulness (win-lose situation). Fortunately, there is an alternative (win-win situation) to the standardized way to succeed.
Win-win learning respects the wishes and autonomy of all participants. In a company setting, this means
you’re offering employees the freedom to choose their learning paths. They’re able to forage for information
and find what they need to know to be good at their job.
During this webinar, you will learn:

What it means to create a learning environment that gives autonomy to your learners
Why foraging for information is just as important as standardizing it
How to make process guidance a science through automation so people can spend more time on the art of what makes them successful


DEMO: Empowerment to the People: How Win-Win Strategies Accelerate Learning

What is the value of having employees who care passionately about your business? Stated more bluntly, what is the cost if they don’t care? Based on your past experience and common sense, you can guess that employees who are committed and engaged are also more positive, productive, and profitable. But can you measure the value of engagement empirically? Recent research is doing just that, and the evidence is startling. In this webcast you will learn the four key elements to creating a committed workforce that will get results and sustain a high level of performance for your organization.
In this webcast, you will:

Discover why sustainable excellence rests on the adaptability of the workforce.
Understand why people work and what influences motivation.
Identify the cause of and the remedy for the gap between consistent leadership behavior and sustained organizational performance.


Leading the Brains of Your People to Higher-Level Performance

As older Baby Boomers steadily exit the workforce, the number of second-wave Millennials represents a tipping point. By 2020, second-wave Millennials will represent more than 20 percent of the workforce. Indeed, the 2020 workforce will be more than 80 percent post-Boomer, dominated by Generation X and the Millennials.
Based on more than a decade of research, this webcast breaks down the Millennial generation into first-wave Millennials (born between 1978 and 1990), and second-wave Millennials (born between 1990 and 2000) at a time when the corporate world is struggling to understand and manage employees in this age group. The key to winning the respect of this generation is strong, highly engaged leadership. To bring out the best in Millennials, managers must carefully manage their expectations, never downplay negative aspects of a job, and always tell it is like it is. The presenter will debunk the most common myths about Millennials in the workplace:

They are disloyal and can’t make real commitments to employers.
They won’t do the grunt work.
They have short attention spans.
They want the top job on day one.
They need work to be fun.
They want to be left alone.
They want managers to do their work for them.
They don’t care about climbing the proverbial career ladder.
Money doesn’t matter to them.
Money is the only thing that matters to them.
They don’t respect their elders.
They only want to learn from computers.
It’s impossible to turn them into long-term employees.
They will never make good managers because they are so self-focused.


Bringing Out the Best in Millennial Talent

Are you already on the high-potential track, but need to stand out in the pile?

Hit the Ground Running: 5 Often Overlooked Strategies to Ensure Career Success in 2019

Research during the last two decades suggests that the most successful performers in organizations are alike in one critical way—they all have emotional intelligence. Most of us have probably been admonished at some point in our professional careers: “Don’t be so emotional” or “Don’t take it personally.” However, leadership and organizational research suggests that emotions are a natural part of the brain’s decision-making process and should not be ignored or disregarded. In fact, our emotional intelligence is our capacity to recognize and manage our emotions and those of others.
In this webinar, attendees will:

Understand the components of emotional intelligence and do a self-assessment of their own emotional intelligence.
Recognize their own triggers for negative workplace situations and relationships.
Learn how to use emotional intelligence skills to control their own reactions in difficult situations and facilitate productive discussions and relationships with colleagues and clients.
Develop a specific plan of action for improving their emotional intelligence skills.
