    Thought Leadership and Adult Learning | Manja Horner | 486

    Thought Leadership and Adult Learning | Manja Horner | 486
    As a thought leader, you want to see your content actively helping people, not just sitting on a shelf. 
    But how do you move insight to action?

    Today,  we're going to talk about the intersection of thought leadership and adult learning. My guest is Manja Horner, the founder of Boost Learning Design, where she helps other big-hearted entrepreneurs make a difference - while growing their businesses.

    Manja tells us how she took her ideas from imagination to actualization, by presenting her insights in ways that showed they were relevant to her audience's needs. In order to do that, thought leaders have to take a step back and put themselves in their audience's shoes. What do they need to know? What problems are they trying to solve? And, most importantly, how does your content address and resolve those challenges?

    Creating learning that will enhance learning and skills is a difficult task, but creating thought leadership that changes mindsets and behaviors is even tougher! Manja explains why you have to ask questions, and how to encourage your audience to think in larger terms about possible solutions.  Furthermore, by helping them develop empathy through role-play, she helps those who are "stuck" to develop a real growth mindset.

    Additional Resources:
    During the conversation, Bill and Manja discuss the Wired 5 Levels series; a textbook example of tailoring your ideas to various audiences. In addition Blooms Taxonomy is discussed; you can read more about it here!


    Three Key Takeaways:

    * Adults learn by doing.  The faster you can take someone from information to application, the better.

    * When you have even 10 minutes of a learner’s time, think about getting them to apply new knowledge to their situation.

    * There is a fine balance to knowing your audience because it can be easy to create content that is too complex or even too simple and lose them either way.

    Cross-Cultural Facilitation Skills with IAF

    Cross-Cultural Facilitation Skills with IAF

    Professional facilitators bring people together to discover creative solutions and resolve differences in ways that value inclusion while saving time, money and morale. The International Association of Facilitators (IAF) believe that there are some core competencies that hold true no matter where in the world (or on the web) you are. On this episode, we’re joined by Shalu Bhuchar, based in India, and Gerardo de Luzenberger, based in Italy, from IAF to dig into IAF’s Six Core Competencies for Facilitators. They share insights on why these competencies are key for facilitators and how they put them into practice.

    Executive Function’s Critical Role in Adult Learning with LaDonna Pavetti

    Executive Function’s Critical Role in Adult Learning with LaDonna Pavetti

    In adult learning settings, we’ve seen that “sit and get” rarely works to help adults gain the knowledge they need to succeed. To understand what the latest in brain science tells us about why a traditional approach often fails adults, we talk to LaDonna Pavetti, Vice President for Family Income Support Policy at Center on Budget & Policy Priorities (CBPP). LaDonna shares the critical role that Executive Function skills play in how we learn. She explains how, as designers of learning experiences, we often underestimate what it takes for our learners to absorb and be able to use new information. Listen to this episode for insights on how to apply the latest in brain science to your approach to learning and teaching.

    Fertile Ground – Facilitation + Leadership with Andres Marquez-Lara

    Fertile Ground – Facilitation + Leadership with Andres Marquez-Lara
    As a long-time facilitator, improv actor, therapist and social entrepreneur, Andres Marquez-Lara, is in the business of healing. He channels this passion as Founder and CEO of UFacilitate where he helps purpose-driven leaders create spaces for deep connection, collaboration and transformation. In this episode, Andres and Tyler explore some of the key points of effective facilitation and how those translate to critical leadership skills. Andres shares the story of how one of his greatest failures as a facilitator led to some of his deepest learning: that when we can recognize our own actions and reactions, keep curiosity at the center and step out of our own way, we leave room for deep insights to emerge.

    Andres highlights a few other key resources you won’t want to miss: East Side Institute’s Social Therapeutics, Liberating Structures, and Books by Peter Block.
