    The MOST Missed Step in the ADDIE Framework

    The ADDIE model helps managers, trainers, and content creators build training that is structured, useful, and easier to improve. In this video, Paul Leon walks through the five stages of ADDIE and explains the step that many teams underuse after launch.

This video shows how to use the ADDIE model to strengthen training content, sales enablement, team development, and learning outcomes. You will learn how to: Analyze learner and performance needs before building contentDesign training with clear objectives, structure, assessments, and brand consistencyDevelop better content with AI and stakeholder reviewImplement training with teams or field repsEvaluate results through feedback, application, and business-impact data The goal is simple: build training content your team can actually use.
