Truths About Learning

There is no substitute for a great teacher.

Context in training is everything.

Don't describe it when you can show it.

People learn best by doing that which they will be doing.

Instructional diagrams are powerful teaching tools.

Unless an organization is willing and able to model behavior, the organization will not be able to change behavior. Walk the walk. Talk the talk.

Data informs decisions.

It takes 21 days to change a behavior.

When communicating, be clear and concise. Repeat and reinforce as necessary.

Avoid oral instruction.

Mistakes are a learning opportunity. If people do not learn from mistakes, they will repeat them.
