<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in">As training practitioners we spend a great deal of time talking about how people learn and how to help people learn and how to use that learning to help organizations improve. But “learning” often looks like
doing, and talking with others about what we’re doing. This is frequently how we learn and how we help others learn. In this session we’ll look at what to narrate as well as how and when. The bottom line? To improve workplace learning and knowledge management
we need to stop saying, “Tell me what you do” and start asking, “Please show me how you did that?"<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in">When it comes to effective leadership, “It’s all in your head.” No one escapes the occasional bad mood, irrational thought, angry outburst, nasty self-righteousness, bad decision or mistrustful reaction: imperfections

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in">As libraries around the world embrace rapid technological changes, they’re offering services and resources—like maker-spaces and collaborative computing—that would have been flights of fancy just a decade ago.
From community forums to hacker-spaces, the way patrons interact with their library and each other is driving new visions of what libraries need to be. Our panel of expert architects will explore how new design philosophies can help patrons and librarians
get the most out of their spaces while blowing the lid off traditional ideas of what a library is for. We’ll look at model projects that are flexible; respond to advances in technology; offer community space; make smart use of indoor and outdoor space; and
have successfully incorporated maker-spaces.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in">Conventional management thought presumes that command-and-control is the most effective way to organize the efforts of large numbers of people, but rapid change and increasing complexity have rendered that model
obsolete. As a result, most managers today lack the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in a world where advantage belongs to the fast and the adaptable. However, there is a small but growing group of managers who are thriving in this time of great change
by designing their organizations around the principles and practices of a new and very different model—Wiki Management. The practitioners of this new model don’t build hierarchies; they build networks. That’s because in a post digital world, networks are smarter
and faster than hierarchies.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-left:.5in">Interviewing users is undeniably one of the most valuable and commonly used user research tools. Yet sometimes we forget that it's a skill we need to learn, because: It's based on skills we think we have (talking
or even listening). People tend to 'wing it' rather than develop their skills. Without good interviewing skills, insights may be inaccurate or reveal nothing new, suggesting the wrong design or business responses, or they may miss the crucial nuance that points
to innovative breakthrough opportunities. This webcast will look at how to frame the research problem so it has the most impact on the team and their design.<o:p></o:p></p>
