Most talent development programs drive improvement in business measures–just not necessarily all the improvement.

Taking full credit for the improvement in performance measures is a bit unfair–and, quite frankly, will diminish the credibility of the results you report. That is why it is important to give credit where credit is due by taking a step to isolate the effects of your programs and projects on improvement in measures that matter.

Isolating the effects of the programs is not about isolating programs from other activities in the organization—far from it. In fact, by isolating the effects of your program, you’re positioning yourself as a better business partner. Doing so enables you to explain how you know the investments in programs are driving results and help your clients allocate resources to the different programs, projects, and activities in which they invest.

During this session, you will learn three techniques to isolate the effects of talent development programs. Case studies will demonstrate each technique. Participants will calculate the improvement in business measures due to the programs described in the case studies. Remember to bring a calculator.

Participants should be able to:

1. Describe the importance of isolating the effects of programs
2. Apply at least three techniques to isolate the effects of programs
3. Determine when to use each of the techniques covered in this session
