Critical Thinking Skills Are Essential
For Modern Business!

Join Dr. Partridge for this online seminar to learn why and to discover methods to use for expanding the critical thinking skills of incoming employees.

Allen will share an overview of the surprising ways that critical thinking plays a role in the success or failure of organizations and businesses.

He will explain how the culture of learning, training architecture, and training itself can all play a role in enhancing the critical thinking skills of your team.

  • Critical thinking is required to validate information and ideas based on verifiable evidence and sound logic.
    • It involves a well-organized thought process that is focused on solving problems, analyzing, and researching.
  • Lack of critical thinking has led to the rise of recent phenomena like runaway fake news stories or hacking of government and corporate computers, and costs companies dearly in lawsuits, fines, penalties, and failed projects.
  • Critical thinkers are willing to challenge assumptions, stay open to new possibilities and approaches, and are aware of the limitations and scope of analysis while remaining reflective and transparent.

Presenter: Allen Partridge, Ph.D. (LinkedIn profile) is a senior technology evangelist at Adobe Systems and has 20 years of experience in e-learning, education, games, and multimedia development. Allen is recognized for his many online video tutorials and e-seminars, which are a mainstay for e-learning developers and trainers learning to create effective online educational materials.

Surprisingly Simple Ways Leaders Inspire Others!

  1. Great leaders inspire action with their words.
  2. They spark enthusiasm and commitment.
  3. With a single conversation, they can change the direction of someone’s life.

Everyone wants to be the kind of leader who energizes and mobilizes others—yet too few are.

Why is it so challenging to crack the code?

Executive coach Kristi Hedges spent years studying exactly what inspiring leaders do differently. Informed by quantitative research and thousands of responses from leaders at all levels, she has determined the core tenets of inspiring communication.

In this webcast, Kristi will uncover how anyone can become an inspirational leader, dispelling common myths that get in the way of motivation and engagement.

Leaders who motivate and energize their people do a few things routinely, consistently, and intentionally.

Kristi will guide you through her research to provide a clear path to become a more inspirational leader.

Using her model, The Inspire Path, she’ll show how to communicate to be:

  • PRESENT: Investing your full attention and letting conversations flow
  • PERSONAL: Speaking genuinely, listening generously, and acknowledging the potential of those around you
  • PASSIONATE: Exhibiting sincere emotion and exuding energy attuned to the situation
  • PURPOSEFUL: Helping others find meaning and see their place in the bigger picture

We encourage you to register even if you are unable to attend live; you’ll receive replay information following the event.

Presenter: Kristi Hedges (LinkedIn profile) is an executive coach, leadership development consultant, and author of Power of Presence: Unlock Your Potential to Influence and Engage Others . Her proprietary presence coaching model has been utilized by clients spanning Fortune 500 corporations, global professional services firms, entrepreneurial businesses, national associations, and the U.S. government.

In a people economy, talent is the key factor that brings competitive advantage.

This holds true across all areas of the business—call centers, auditors, researchers, sales, etc.  Leadership is no exception.

Unfortunately, the leadership pipeline for many organizations is running low.

Less than 30% of business units have the leaders required to meet the future needs of the organization.

In addition, nearly one-third of HR leaders would replace members of their senior leadership team if given the opportunity.

In this webinar John will focus on:

  • How to measure the effectiveness of your Leader Development programs?
  • How to communicate the business value of learning investments to key leaders?

By the end of the session, attendees will learn how to create a balanced measurement strategy as well as present reliable, tailored dashboards and insights to clarify the relevance and impact of leader development programs to the business.

Presenter: John R. Mattox, II, Ph.D (LinkedIn profile) Managing Consultant Corporate Executive Board (CEB) .  CEB acquired KnowledgeAdvisors where John was the Director of Research. Previously John led training evaluation teams at KPMG, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Arthur Andersen for 12 years.  Recently, he co-authored the books Predictive Analytics for Human Resources  and Learning Analytics: Measurement Innovations to Support Employee Development.
