Small Victories
All managers aspire to be great talent developers, but many feel overwhelmed by challenges such as assessing needs, developing curricula, delivering training and doing follow-up coaching. Chunked learning reframes the task. When managers focus on delivering short, narrow slices of learning, the task seems doable. It gets done. Managers start accumulating “small victories” and build confidence as talent developers.
Achieving success in a leadership role
Success in a leadership role requires more than technical skill. It requires a second core competency – the ability to develop talent. Many managers are strong individual performers, but have never been trained to get results through others. And those that have often lack the time to get it done. RLI gives them the guidance and resources to succeed in a talent development role.
A training breakthrough for managers
If you’re a busy manager, talent development can seem like an overwhelming task that you lack the time and skill to do effectively. But when you reframe your role, and see yourself as teaching narrowly defined concepts, training seems doable. RLI gets you started by helping you focus on one chunk at a time. You teach your people one specific skill at a time and achieve a series of “small victories.” Chunking allows you to tackle very granular concepts that you master and are comfortable teaching.
Training in the moment of need
Formal training with planned follow-up activities may be the backbone of your talent development plan, but that’s only part of the equation. Some of the most important training you do is “coaching in the moment of need.” Fact is, training can’t always wait for the next meeting to roll around. It needs to be done now. RLI gives you a comprehensive library of resources you can easily search and access exactly when needed.
