Building the next great team building activation requires that we learn from the one we just did. Growing and improving... team building & engagement

If you’re new here and want to know more about the five phases, check out the post I linked in the comments. It’ll start you off on the right foot when working to create stellar professional development materials for your team.

Been here since the start?

Ok! You’ve analyzed, designed, developed, and conducted your materials and now it’s time to evaluate how it all went.

Here are some important things to ask yourself:

• Did the materials keep your team engaged?

• Did the materials meet your learning objectives?

• What training requirements weren’t met by this course?

Also, make sure to consider the feedback from the learners. How did they enjoy the course and how do they feel it can be improved?

Keep track of these answers and the needed changes and cycle this information back into the analysis phase.

These five phases (analyse, design, develop, conduct, and evaluate) are meant to work together comprehensively and progressively to ensure that your professional development materials are effective and dynamic.

With well-designed materials, your team will learn more effectively, thus performing better and staying better engaged.

And who doesn’t want that?
