Developing Results: Aligning Learning's Goals and Outcomes With Business Performance Measures
Speaker: Kevin M. Oakes CEO, Institute for Corporate Productivity at i4cp
This webinar is based on the latest report, Developing Results: Aligning Learning’s Goals and Outcomes With Business Performance Measures, from i4cp in partnership with ASTD Research. It is intended to examine the ways in which high-performing organizations approach the evaluation of learning and tie that measurement to overall business performance measures. The study found that a strong correlation exists between goal alignment and market performance, as well as a strong correlation between alignment and a learning function that is effective at meeting its own goals and the organization’s goals. Some of the issues and topics addressed in this webinar include: the development of the learning strategy, the measurement of learning’s impact on results, and challenges to maintaining and measuring alignment
