Knowledge Doesn’t Equal Behavior Change

Boring webinars aren't effective.

You've probably attended a few in your lifetime.

And other than remembering that it was boring, you probably don't remember much else.

And it certainly didn't change your behavior.

Shift Your Focus

So how can we move away from boring webinars and into an engaging virtual classroom environment?

The first step is to recognize that knowledge doesn't equal behavior change.

The next step is to focus on the actions you need people to take.

Identify the Actions

Once you've shifted your focus to be action-oriented, you can begin to ask questions that will reveal exactly what actions you need people to take.

Watch this video for specific questions you can ask.

Create an Engaging Experience

These actions set you in the right direction. You can then create an experience that allows people to practice those actions in the virtual environment. This practice leads to behavior change.

If you are looking to reach your audience with the job-specific, leadership, or DEI skills they need to move your mission forward - and you need to reach them virtually - this is a game changer.

Next Steps

Take some time to ask questions to uncover the behavior change that is required and focus on creating the learning experience that will allow them to practice those behaviors. While there are other things to consider - your organization's strategy, the needs of your audience, the organizational culture - this one shift can make a huge difference for staff performance.
