Improve Employee Leadership With Ideas Borrowed From the Military

Many organizations have been testing hybrid program approaches for several months, yet we are still collecting anecdotal data of their impact. In general, hybrid meetings receive lower ratings from virtual and in-person attendees than do sessions set up primarily for one specific group. Recent research by Elliott Masie suggests in-person participants are seeking connection: they want longer, more in-depth, and full-group discussions; more experiences; and fewer, shorter breaks. In contrast, virtual participants focus on content: they prefer more small-group discussions, shorter sessions, and more frequent breaks.
ATD’s CTDO Next consortium of talent development executives set out to test these best practices with a hybrid meeting at ATD 2021. They designed a program with shorter sessions, more breaks, and time devoted entirely to conversation. Attendees received the content asynchronously for review at their convenience. Both in-person and virtual attendees enjoyed connection over meals provided on-site and via special deliveries.
Join this panel of CTDO Next members as they discuss lessons learned from their recent hybrid program experiment.
