Organizations have adopted the virtual classroom as a way to maximize training opportunities while minimizing costs. After a decade of ineffective sessions, training organizations are looking for instructional design techniques that will create virtual programs that will meet, or even exceed, the results achieved in more traditional settings.Trending in the virtual classroom design space are two concepts: how to 'flip the classroom' to maximize valuable collaboration time, and how to apply the latest thinking with regards to Bloom's Taxonomy to determine how best to delivery content in this new environment. Another key consideration concerns how blended learning fits into the equation. Do we need to both FLIP and BLEND?This session will examine both the flipped classroom and Bloom’s Taxonomy and their relationship to the virtual classroom. The application of these concepts will help make your virtual and blended sessions as impactful as possible, while taking advantage of your technology investments by focusing on what content is best delivered through a virtual classroom and other learning technologies, and how flipping the classroom is a natural consequence of good design. In this session, techniques will be shared which will help you to:Determine what content is best delivered in a live, virtual formatMap learning objectives to the appropriate virtual classroom tools using a modern application of Bloom'sTaxonomy of Learning"Flip the classroom" to maximize the collaborative impact of "together time"

A study by eLearning News suggests that there is an increasing number of workers and employees who learn while on the job. Coupled with smartphones, tablets and laptops, learning and accessing knowledge becomes "use as you go" or "learn as you work."This trend is a challenge to trainers, subject matter experts, eLearning designers and developers. With limited and busy schedules, learners must digest the knowledge and learning as quickly as they can and put them into immediate use. The content must therefore be in "small bites," otherwise, the learner wastes time, gets frustrated and the results are not achieved.In this webinar, Ray Jimenez will cover the following topics: What are the trends that put extreme on pressure trainers, SMEs, designers, developers and leaders to produce "Small Bites" Learning?What is "Small Bites" Learning and how does it differ from formal and informal learning?Where is "Small Bites" Learning most effective?How do you apply "Small Bites" Learning in compliance, technical, software, people skills, on-boarding and awareness training?What is a proven step to produce "Small Bites" Learning?How do you calculate the savings of "Small Bites" Learning?Three case studies will be presentedAttend the webinar and preview demos and examples of "Small Bites" Learning as delivered in performance support, elearning and mobile learning.

Having collected Big Data, organizations are now keen on data science and “Big Learning." Much of the focus has been on data science as exploratory analytics, offline, in the lab. However, building a production-ready large-scale operational analytics system remains a difficult and ad-hoc endeavor, especially when real-time answers are required. Design patterns for effective implementations are emerging, which take advantage of relaxed assumptions, adopt a new tiered "lambda" architecture, and pick the right scale-friendly algorithms to succeed. Drawing on experience from customer problems, this session will present a reference architecture and algorithm design choices for a successful implementation.

Remember the great Y2K conversion? Even though it's been 14 years, the Y2K playbook included several excellent strategies you can apply to large-scale migrations off Windows XP. Like Y2K, Windows XP's end of life has a drop-dead date: April 8, 2014. So if you're watching the grains slip through the hourglass, these key plays from Y2K initiatives might keep your aspirin on the shelf.

Branding means so many things to different people that it has become nebulous. It’s called the “secret sauce” of marketing, but what does that mean? “Secret sauce” might mean sriracha to some, Tabasco to others, or the intangible and often unidentifiable ingredient that we all seek and/or covet.You can find branding all around you – it’s often expressed as the slogan, the tagline, the “Just Do It” of Nike and the “Find Your Strong” of Saucony. It’s the spirit of Dove’s “Real Beauty” campaign. It’s the Chick-fil-A cows plastering graffiti on billboards. It’s Apple’s packaging.But if branding is at once concrete and abstract, contrived and uncontrollable, the logo and not, the slogan and the customer experience – how can you create a memorable and meaningful brand?

Many investors don't fully appreciate the value of diversification in their bond portfolios. We think these investors may be missing an opportunity. Recent work undertaken by our team of quantitative specialists shows that going global, particularly when adding Emerging Markets Debt and Global High Yield exposure, can be beneficial to bond portfolios. This benefit appears to increase even further if the allocation is funded by reduced exposure to both equities and domestic fixed income. Join us for an interactive webinar to find out how these often overlooked asset classes may improve the expected returns of a typical U.S. pension portfolio - without increasing, or perhaps even decreasing, the portfolio's overall risk. Key findings:The optimal portfolio balances sources of risk, moving away from a domestic fixed income bias and towards increased global rates and credit exposureIncreased allocations to investment-grade emerging markets and corporate bonds can be both desirable and beneficialGlobal high yield corporate bonds can also be good diversifiersMany U.S. plan sponsors may want to consider increasing allocations to global bonds while decreasing equity exposure. This could create a better match for a typical plan's liabilities

Recent surveys reveal that less than 10% of companies rate their ability to continuously improve the close as superior, while more than 70% consider continuous improvement one of their top three priorities for the close. Why this discrepancy?The constantly evolving nature of the close, along with the unique requirements each company has for close processes, limit the effectiveness of standard process re-engineering methods. Instead, a total solution approach, focusing on continuous improvement provides the best path to success.Join accounting close expert Gabe Zubizarreta in this webinar and get a total solution approach to close optimization while reviewing the elements required for a successful effort.

Debbie Qaqish will explain how Revenue Marketers are making a huge impact on revenue while advancing themselves professionally within their organizations. This bold movement towards Revenue Marketing has become a top priority in today’s corporate world and was the catalyst for Qaqish’s new book “Rise of the Revenue Marketer: An Executive Playbook”. FACT: marketing automation vendors train end users on how to use the software, but no one is teaching the marketing executive how to deal with the organizational changes associated with transitioning from traditional marketer to revenue marketer, until now. Debbie’s book fills this gap by helping CMOs understand how to overcome the challenges and successfully lead change.Thanks to software like marketing automation and analytics, companies can measure the impact of marketing on revenue generation. Marketing’s ability to create predictable, repeatable and sustainable streams of revenue is an enormous leap forward. While software is fundamental to this process, there’s a huge hurdle that must be overcome after marketing automation is implemented. That hurdle is change.Debbie’s presentation is based on the insights gained during her successful executive sales and marketing career and the process of writing of her book, which offers a fresh, peer-based perspective on the CMO’s New Role as Change Agent as the organization transitions from being a cost center to a revenue center. Based on interviews with 22 executive marketers from companies like GE, Citrix, Sage, Iron Mountain, etc., Debbie’s shares the trials and triumphs of these 22 professionals as they advance in their Revenue Marketing Journey.Take-Aways:Why now is the Age of Revenue Marketing (RM) and how to begin the journeyThe 6 controls needed to stay on courseHow to build a Revenue Marketing Center of ExcellenceHow to align and lead revenue and salesHow to report and forecast metrics that matterThe role of technology in RM successGlobal transformationHow to sell the vision

A Simple Tool
It’s rained
more in Atlanta in the last 30 days than in the last 3 years. One of my dear friends has a wonderful house
with a sloped backyard that flattens out at the basement door. Over the last 2 weeks, I’ve been helping take
out wet carpet and the most absorbent carpet pad I’ve ever seen. Although much of the furniture remained
intact, she decided it was time for a furniture upgrade.
Convey has a
number of young people working for the company with several of those individuals
living on their own for the first time since college. What you and I might consider furniture cast
offs, they consider those cast offs a great way to furnish an empty
apartment. I took two of our young people
over to her house and they instantly fell in love with the older Rooms To Go
green couch. A few minutes later, it was
strapped down and loaded on the top of my Murano. Since it was only going a few miles, I
considered this would be a simple, quick exercise of getting the couch over and
into the first floor of the townhome -
no big deal, right?
Quite a bit
of time passed and I started to get worried.
It seemed secure on the roof, but did it slip off? What was the delay? They came back and I was on the phone so keys
were passed over and I didn’t think any more of it until one of the young men
came out of the office and sheepishly let me know the couch had gotten stuck in
the front doorway. Not only could they
not get into their townhome, but their neighbor couldn’t get in as well.
I called my
very handy husband who loaded all kinds of tools in his car and hurried
over. I envisioned having to hack
through the doorframe and all types of disruptive activities to dislodge this
wedged-in couch. He went to his toolbox,
pulled out a handy-dandy Philips-head screwdriver and in moments the legs were
taken off and the couch slipped inside.
What’s the
lesson in all this? Think before you
act? Call for help and advice? Don’t force it if it doesn’t fit? I think all of these lessons are good, but
the one I took away was that sometimes all it takes is a simple tool to do the
job. For much of my career, until this
year, I’ve been in the conferencing industry.
Conferencing may seem like a simple tool, but sometimes that’s all that
is needed to do the job. It works from
every phone, doesn’t require instructions, and doesn’t require any set up. Dial the phone and you’re in – a simple
tool.
But over
conferencing, you can cement business deals, reorganize your company, set sales
strategy, and train everyone on the latest product. Conferencing is that simple tool that gets a
lot done.
By the way
to the gentlemen who now own the couch, I have more furniture, but if you take
it, then let’s think before you act, look before you leap, have a plan and some
simple tools to get the stuff through the door!

IBM - 100 Years and Counting!
Believe it or not, IBM has already celebrated its 100-year
anniversary. People familiar with IBM
are not only struck by how long IBM has been in business, but by how the
company has continued to reinvent itself over the years.
IBM started its corporate life making clocks and cheese
slicers. When the Social Security Act
became law, IBM created the punched-card tabulator to keep track of Social
Security recipients. Over time, they
invented the Selectric Typewriter, magnetic tapes, he memory chip, mainframes
and personal computers. Today, IBM is
known for its services and its software.
IBM has been one of the richest and largest companies in the world
and one that has been on the brink of financial disaster. In 1962, Tom Watson,
Jr., the son of IBM’s founder, spoke to an audience on the 50th
anniversary of the company, startling them with the following statistic. Only two of the top 25 industrial corporations in
the United States in 1900 were still on the top 25 list with 6 being absorbed,
2 disappearing and 15 slipping way far behind.
Fast-forward to today and only 2 of the top 25 companies at the time of
Tom Watson’s speech are still at top 25.
The founders of IBM believed that
success was fleeting, but if they created a philosophy that worked they could sustain
the company for the long haul. In the
words of Tom Watson from 1962, here is that formula for success:
“I firmly believe that any organization, in order
to survive and achieve success, must have a sound set of beliefs on which it
premises all its policies and actions.”
You could infer that this statement
refers to a value system, but beyond that, it speaks to what makes the company
unique and how it wants to be viewed in the marketplace. IBM clearly wanted to be known as an
innovator. They wanted to bring creative
solutions to the marketplace that solved a problem and allowed their customers
to be more productive. They wanted their
customers to come to IBM for these solutions that they could get from nowhere
else.
“I believe that if an organization is to meet the
challenges of a changing world, it must be prepared to change everything about
itself… except those beliefs…”
IBM’s long corporate history reflects
their willingness to change, to evolve and to reinvent itself, preparing the
company to serve the marketplace as it evolves.
Look at the progression of computing.
IBM had tabulation machines, then typewriters, then room-sized
computers, then computers that sat on the desktop and finally the software and
services that drove the information age.
There is no doubt IBM will continue to evolve. Their slogan, “Think” is what they do best.
Congratulations IBM. 100 years of keeping true to your core
beliefs, of creating a culture for success and having the courage to continue
to evolve. We hope that companies will
take a page from your playbook so they can survive, grow and thrive.

If there is one thing I am absolutely sure of, it is that the rate of change will continue to be dramatic. We will continue to struggle to identify whether new innovation is fad or ground-breaking. But what I can see clearly is those things that are simply no longer relevant or pervasive will become redundant. Business models will continue to be challenged – fortunes will be made and lost.When asked to consider "What will define 2014?", I had to really stop and think. 2013 has delivered so many things no one could have predicted – but the trends were there if you could see the indicators.

You want to maximize return on marketing investments, no matter where you are on the customer acquisition or retention curve. The better you know your audiences, the better your decisions. Traditional audience analysis tools are helpful, to a point; after all, any segmentation is better than none at all. But there is a way to obtain precise, actionable customer insights that improve the odds of sending the right content to the right audiences in the right channels: predictive modeling. Predictive models analyze your data and provide insights that enable you to make marketing decisions based on customers’ propensities to act or not to act in certain ways. Predictive analytics go beyond simple segmentation or criteria-based lists pulled from customer relationship management (CRM) systems or other databases. Using predictive modeling, you can identify customers and prospects who are most likely to take a desired action. By analyzing data before you start a campaign, you can apply laser-like clarity to find the right audiences faster, develop precisely targeted content and improve response rates.

According to the American Society of Training and Development, US-based companies spend approximately $20 billion a year on sales training. Yet many sales organizations get low ROIs from their sales training initiatives.A common problem with many sales training initiatives is that they are event based (i.e., intensive, multi-day training events) where participants typically forget much of what they have learned shortly after the training event. Another challenge is that sales organizations don’t get the frontline sales managers actively involved in the training, reinforcement and measurement process.This white paper explains the benefits of using a systematic approach to sales training that transforms it from a one-time event into an ongoing process that produces a more sustainable adoption of new sales skills.

Accountability has been an important cornerstone in the foundation of our society. The ability of our economy to run efficiently and our nation to govern itself justly is rooted in effective stewardship of our accountabilities. As our organizations and institutions grow larger and more complex, the environment in which they operate is also growing more complex with an increasing pace of change. Many have begun to question if our institutions can keep up. Can we realistically expect organizations to detect and respond to change quickly enough to execute on their accountabilities? And can stakeholders ever expect to have the information they need in order to ensure those organizations and institutions are steering the right course?With a renewed focus on accountability, the new Administration has challenged leadership both in the government and private industry to closely manage the performance of their organizations and ensure accountabilities are being met. And even though the Administration has appointed the first Chief Performance Officer for the federal government, performance management is not a new concept to government or industry managers. Organizations have been implementing performance management with varied success over the past few decades, but we continue to see failures in accountability.
