“I prefer strawberries and apples in my smoothie, my partner swaps the apple for a banana – each to their own I say! So, we all prefer our own blend…”
Learning to Learn
Advances in behavioural science and technology mean that we’re on the cusp of a learning revolution. Many organisations are now embracing latest research which shows a 702010 approach to employee learning engagement, which is intrinsically linked to overall employee engagement. The research indicates that the majority of learning takes place through ‘on the job’ experience (70 per cent) and picking up ideas by working with and observing colleagues do what they do (20 per cent). The same research found that the final 10 per cent of learning is from classroom training. Unfortunately, classroom training is shown to have limited impact without some form of learning consolidation/follow up. The truth is, that much of what has been learned can be forgotten in matter of hours and days. This is where Brightstone smoothly moves in to ensure you and your organisation get the most from training and coaching.
Smoothie Moves
So, how do Brightstone ensure behaviour is embedded? We reckon it’s all in the mix. How we go about mixing up our learning could be likened to creating the perfect smoothie! Blending can come in the form of pre-classroom learning (e-learning/ video/app games), peer-to-peer support, live projects and workbooks, and post-classroom, learning consolidation activities including aid memoirs, one-to-one coaching and other reminders on apps/intranet.
Getting Smart
In recent years we’ve been able to utilise all that technology and social media has to offer. We have moved with the times, to create immersive classroom and e-learning content that goes beyond the experiences we’ve been able to give employees in previous years. Brightstone grasps fully that learner engagement is enhanced by using smart technology which connects perfectly with experiential classroom learning. And, if this is topped with professional, follow-up support then your people will excel and become even better than they already are.
Inspiration is Everything
Brightstone understands the challenges and knows how to make the changes that you want to create. We have discovered what really matters is creating content that inspires and engages. It’s also about knowing the most effective medium for whatever learning is required. This is what will ultimately transform how your employees think, act and behave and this will ensure a culture of learning and continuous improvement.
