Session Focus: Helping Tomas @ IQVIA Co-create an Organizational Learning and Talent Needs Assessment Opportunity: IQVIA wants to tap the ELE network to benchmark organizational assessments. One of @Tomas Ramirez's first deliverables at IQVIA will be to conduct an organizational assessment for Talent and Learning needs within the business unit he supports. Tomas plans to interview high-level and mid-level leaders, conduct surveys with the rest of the organization, and then dive deeper by sponsoring some focus group discussions.

• Your Learning Needs a Comprehensive Strategy (04-OCT-2018)

As learning professionals, we are frequently tasked to build learning solutions to solve business problems. Quite often, these needs appear to be a worthwhile investment. But without the backdrop of strategy, we miss a critical piece of the decision-making framework – the relative value of specific learning needs a decision.

  Framework for prioritizing and integrating learning To better understand their investments in training and development, four years ago Discover shared how they developed a portfolio framework for managing training and development. Since then, the Learning Strategy team at Discover has worked to articulate a strategy for these portfolios in order to prioritize better learning initiatives that drive optimal business outcomes. During this roundtable discussion, let's continue the conversation with one or more of the following:

• Develop a framework for organizing training and development programs
• Learn what a comprehensive strategy entails
• Discuss a methodology for articulating a learning strategy
• Discuss strategies for creating KPIs to ensure alignment with business outcomes
• Highlight key examples of learning strategies for various learning portfolios
• Build a roadmap for executing on learning strategy

  Road map for success You need a road map to enable strategy before you can really make headway, but repositioning your talent development function to deliver on strategy will reap huge rewards in terms of having an impact.   ELE produces this Learning Circle: Retooling Talent Development for the New Normal.
