Ross Stevenson has spent nearly two decades building world-class learning and performance functions for global organizations. Currently, he acts as a Chief Learning Strategist and shares insights through his weekly newsletter: Steal These Thoughts.
What Ross and I discuss in this episode:
1) What factors should be considered by a learning and development team before adopting a new product? (Learning curve? Instructional resources for the tool? Alternative products already used?)
2) Let’s say you’re rolling out a new tool or platform for your company. What steps do you take to ensure that there’s buy-in, everyone understands what it can do, and they feel comfortable using it?
3) You often speak about Ikigai, or the Japanese concept of finding something that gives a person purpose. In today’s hustle culture, it’s common to try and make a profit off of one’s passion. How does someone balance focusing on their passion without burning out when they make it into a job?
