Five Ways to Improve Experiential Learning

Best practices for experiential learning programs are evolving. How can you initiate, or improve upon, this proven method? This session will address:

• What is experiential learning?
• When to employ it...and when not to:
• • Participants are proficient in their own area but need better context, execution experience
  • Cost of employee error is high (participants can’t ‘experiment’ on the job)
  • Colleagues need to get to know each other (global, siloed, departmentalized)
  • Participants are proficient in their own area but need better context, execution experience
  • When to employ it -- Experiential learning generally takes time and is not optimal for simply teaching a single technical subject (how to do lease accounting, how to prevent computer hacking)
• Five key items to ensure its success
• • Know your participants (demographics, experiences, CTQs)
  • Ensure the experience engages on multiple levels (technical, leadership, sharing corporate culture, social)
  • Use in-house subject-matter experts liberally, and wisely
  • Create multiple opportunities for feedback among teams and between teams and facilitators
  • Do rigorous, disciplined post-event analysis (engaging participants, their managers, SMEs, corporate leadership, and other relevant parties)
