• Contracting with our sponsors
• Making engaging and realistic promises

It is no wonder that the most pressing concern facing Industry leaders is that that that we are overwhelmed and under skilled.

This session will take learning leaders on a journey of discovery – laying out evidenced based foundations to help establish a new vision for learning that individuals can confidently own to establish a relevant future.

Learning objectives. This session will cover:

• What does the future hold for L&D?

13h30-14h25: Nick Shackleton-Jones: How To Be a Good Lobster: Why You Should Ditch Education and Do Learning Instead

Around the world, organisations spend an estimated $400 billion dollars a year on training, with very little evidence that any of it is effective. While the world has moved on, education has largely stayed the same: a set of conventions designed more around obedience and childcare than learning; a world of rituals than do little for performance and engagement.

Even before the advent of mobile devices, the vast majority of employee learning took place outside our formal training mechanisms – and now most of us are using WhatsApp, Google, YouTube to get what we need, when we need it. Who needs ‘content dumping’ in a world where information is readily available, after all?

‘Learning & Development’ is rapidly becoming obsolete – a camouflage for regulatory compliance or sanctioned downtime. A quaint vestige from the past. But even as educational fundamentalists circle the dying embers of training orthodoxy the stirrings of something new promise to rise phoenix-like from the ashes.

What if we were able to help people perform – even if that meant eliminating learning? In a world of AI, who will design performance guidance systems? How do we design a learning ecosystem in which people are challenged and recognised for their accomplishments?

In this session we will describe a different future, a new role for the learning professional, an alternate model of learning.

We will:

• Challenge our assumptions around learning
• See examples of very different solutions to business problems
• Understand the transformative shift that we will need to undergo if we are to survive

16h00-16h55: Patti Shank : The Science of Training

What science foundations do people who design and implement workplace learning use to assure good outcomes? Ask learning practitioners this question and blank stares are a typical reply. Learning professionals too often know little about the foundations of effective training practice.

If we look at good outcomes in other fields, it's clear that science foundations are the reason. For example, carpenters' use mathematics such as addition, subtraction, and geometry for measuring and assuring good fit. Physics for creating stable and strong structures. Wood science to select the right wood for a given purpose.

The consequences of not applying needed science are dire: Training doesn't offer needed results and wastes resources. Job performance remains unimproved. Unacceptable!

In this keynote, Patti Shank, PhD, author of three books on the practical application of sciences for better outcomes, will discuss the sciences we must apply and offer practical suggestions for applying it. Participants will learn:

In this session you will:

• Which fields of research inform good training practice and how they help
• Specifics of how research helps us get better training outcomes
• Where to go to find practical research tactics

  De meeste professionals zijn ondertussen gelukkig overtuigd van het nut van coaching. Toch krijgen we van onze klanten regelmatig de opmerking dat er te weinig tijd voor is.

  Heb je het idee dat coaching veel tijd vraagt? Dat je er door de hectiek van het werk vaak niet aan toe komt? Wij hebben ervaren dat je op een paar minuten tijd al heel wat kan bereiken. Je medewerkers voelen zich begrepen en gehoord, en zullen zich verder kunnen ontwikkelen. Dat is meteen ook goed nieuws voor het bedrijf zelf. In deze sessie leren we je graag hoe je op 5 minuten tijd je medewerkers al op weg helpt.

  Na deze keynote:

  • Is de drempel om te coachen verlaagd.

• 13h30-14h25 : Koen Joly - Vergaderen is saai. Of hoe je van je vergaderingen energiebommetjes kan maken

  

  Vergaderingen zijn echt de moeite waard wanneer er zaken gebeuren die goesting geven en energie om er de komende tijd weer in te vliegen. Te vaak kijken we echter op tegen vergaderingen. We zien ze eerder als tijdverlies dan als meerwaarde.

  Tijdens deze keynote gaan we samen op zoek naar wanneer deze vergaderingen energie geven en hoe we ervoor kunnen zorgen dat dit elke keer voor elke aanwezige het geval wordt.

• 14h45-15h40 : Erika Wyckmans - De kracht van informeel leren

  

  Informeel leren lijkt wel het buzz woord van de afgelopen jaren. Stilaan maar zeker krijgt het begrip meer ruimte in de bedrijfswereld en wordt concreet nagedacht over hoe informeel leren de kracht van formeel leren kan versterken en maximaliseren. Wat is het precies, hoe breng je informeel leren actief in je organisatie en hoe zorg je als HR-professional voor een gezonde balans tussen formeel en informeel leren? Na deze sessie:

• 16h00-16h55 : Tom Nijsmans - Critical skills for the future & the impact on Learning & Development

  

  Dat de arbeidsmarkt davert onder een veelheid van veranderingen moeten we jou als L&D professional niet uitleggen. Zowel de vorm als de inhoud van het concept ‘werk’ krijgt een hele nieuwe betekenis. Digitale en biologische vooruitgang zorgen er voor dat onze jobinhoud én de werkplek anders wordt ingericht. Bovendien kent de betekenis die we aan werk geven grove transformaties. Maar welke concrete vaardigheden winnen in deze ‘vernieuwde’ arbeidsmarkt aan belang? En hoe kan ik hier als L&D professional op inspelen?

  Wij gingen op pad om dit te onderzoeken! Tijdens deze keyynote vatten wij 149 wetenschappelijke artikels, 26 interviews met business professionals en 7 maanden onderzoek samen om de volgende vragen te beantwoorden:

  • Zijn soft skills wel belangrijk in een digitale wereld?
  • Welke zijn de belangrijkste vaardigheden anno 2019?
  • Is er een verschil met deze van 2025?
