    Focus and Flow: Tips and Tricks for Productivity

    It all started with the big question on the table:   Are we caught up in "Productivity Shiny Object Syndrome?" Do you ever feel like you’re juggling flaming chainsaws while blindfolded on a unicycle?   You’re not alone.   Between designing workshops, crafting engaging training materials and nurturing employee development, finding time to breathe, let alone be productive, feels like a pipe dream.   Today, let’s explore what really matters when choosing productivity tools. Together we can shift our mindset away from the “more tools, more productivity” myth and help identify the specific areas slowing us down in our unique workflow. Then, we can consider what tools and processes can make our work lives healthier and more efficient.   This podcast calls back to this Learning Rebels Blog Post: Here’s What Really Matters with Productivity Tools. https://www.learningrebels.com/2024/02/01/heres-what-really-matters-in-productivity-tools/ Additional reading: Building a Second Brain: A Proven Method to Organize Your Digital Life and Unlock Your Creative Potential by Tiago Forte The Extended Mind: The Power of Thinking Outside the Brain by Annie Murphy Paul Come Up for Air: How Teams Can Leverage Systems and Tools to Stop Drowning in Work by Nick Sonnenberg Time Planning Tools and Techniques: Learn How to Create Your Personal Time Planning, Increase Your Productivity, and Discover the Most Efficient Tools and Techniques to Become the Master of Your Time by Scott Darley Work Smarter, and Not Harder, Volume 3: Best Productivity Tools and Apps to Help You Achieve More by Emma Brown   Resources   Video TranscriptTranscript Summary   Tools:   WellSaid Labs   Boomerang   Get Rocketbook   Boox   Toggl   Synthesia   Maestro Learning   Goodnotes   Start your week with a creativity boost!

    Finding Your Fire: Self-Motivation Techniques

    It all started with the big question on the table:   Are you feeling caught in the endless cycle of work, struggling to keep your motivation alive?   You’re not alone.   As we continue to wear numerous hats, maintaining a high level of self-motivation becomes difficult. Business is moving fast, and the expectation is that we should move even faster. We are caught up in the hamster wheel, and it is hard to keep ourselves motivated.   Are you tired, frustrated, maybe feeling a bit... crispy around the edges? Has it gotten to the point where every time you see an email notification, you break out in hives and daydream throwing your laptop out the window? Is your main accomplishment for the day discovering how many snacks you can consume in an hour? I see me, and I see you.   This podcast calls back to this Learning Rebels Blog Post: 3 Ways to Get Your Creative Mojo Going https://www.learningrebels.com/2015/10/02/3-ways-to-get-your-creative-mojo-going-when-you-arent-feeling-it/ Additional reading: Master Your Motivation: A Practical Guide to Unstick Yourself, Build Momentum and Sustain Long-Term Motivation by Thibaut Meurisse Changing Your Mindset for Good: The Quick Way to Control Your Emotions, Shift Your Reality for Mental Self Development by Jay Fenix The Mountain Is You: Transforming Self-Sabotage into Self-Master by Brianna Wiest Get out of Your Own Way: Overcoming Self-Defeating Behavior: Overcoming Self-Defeating Behavior by Philip Goldberg Make Your Bed: Little Things That Can Change Your Life...And Maybe the World by William McRaven   Resources   VideoTranscriptTranscript Summary   Tony Robbins’ How to Self Motivate   Susan David’s How to Identify Your Values   Mind Tools’ How Self-Motivated Are You   Harvard Business Review’s How To Keep Working When You’re Just Not Feeling It   Susan David with Adam Grant: Overcoming Forced Positivity   Start your week with a creativity boost!

    When Training isn’t Successful: Bridging the Learning/Doing Gap

    It all started with the BIG question on the table.     How can we ensure that the skills and knowledge acquired during training are effectively applied in the workplace?   We've all been there - we create what we feel is a learning solution that can't go wrong...then it does.   Most of us have been there, done that, bought the tee-shirt and don't want to go back.   We know that training fails for two reasons Lack of feedback mechanism and Lack of learning reinforcement   But there is a third, more realistic reason—lack of management involvement. Activating managers early and often is the key to success when bridging the learning/doing gap. The managers are the gatekeepers and it was clear in our discussion that we've been manager-blocked many times.   Today we're going to be discussing the common pitfalls learning within organizations encounters, how we can provide ongoing learning support - without workplace disruption, and what tools we can use to help embed learning solutions into the organization?     Stay Curious!

    The Future of Instructional Design

    It all started with the BIG question on the table.     What skills will L&D need in order to remain relevant in the business world of the future?   L&D is undergoing a seismic shift. With the advent of new technologies and changing workplace dynamics, we are facing challenges that are far more complex than ever before.   And then there was the wake-up call.   In December 2021, ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, dissolved its entire L&D department. The reason? They felt that many of their learning initiatives were not adding value and were merely "feel-good activities" with limited impact.   Sure, there is more going on than meets the eye - but we can't deny that layoffs in L&D are on the rise. So what to do?   We can prepare for the future because the future is now. Today, we are going to be discussing the skills that instructional designers, and L&D in general, will need in order to prepare and be successful for the future.     Stay Curious!

    Learning Rebels Live with Hadiya Nuriddin

    Going LIVE - Sharing the Story of the Storyteller, Hadiya Nuriddin   We all have something in our backgrounds that silently informs how we act and what we do, and Hadiya is no different.   Hadiya’s journey   It seems logical that Hadiya would want to grow up and be on the stage. Her skill for weaving a story is legendary. What wasn’t logical was how she grew away from acting and into customer support training for Kinko’s!   With her Master’s Degree in Writing, she single-handedly took over training support. Writing job aids and other learning materials to help the poor customers who were struggling with that new-fangled technology of a floppy disk.   Her story is inspirational. Who knew that little girl who was looking for her Oscar would grow up to write a book on Storytelling with another on the way for Quality Assurance? Yes, Quality Assurance! You’ll have to listen in to get the rest of the story!   All the Resources!   Watch the live video here: https://vimeo.com/881690517 Connect with Hadiya here: Buy Hadiya’s book, StoryTraining: https://amzn.to/3spFuQA Build capabilities all while building relationships!

    Curation Tools and Techniques

    It all started with the BIG question on the table.     What are the different tools impacting the curation process, and what challenges do we need to overcome to ensure relevance and impact?   Curation seems to be the L&D buzzword at the moment and while curation seems to be on everyone’s agenda - there’s a lot of anxiety over how to get started.   Here's the Good News: advancements in technology have provided L&D professionals with an army of tools and platforms designed to streamline content curation.   The bad news? These advances lead us to an army of tools.  The sheer volume of available resources can be overwhelming, making it difficult to decide which tools are effective and will help us meet our curation goals.   During our last Coffee Chat, we discussed how to align our curation efforts with the needs and goals of the business. This week, we're discussing the different tools and techniques we can use.   Plus – Special Bonus! Mike Taylor joins us to share his views on the different tools he uses.   Stay Curious!
