Presenter: Christine Moore

The goal isn’t just to calculate ROI, but to create programs that deliver sustainable value while developing people.

The Kirkpatrick Model, developed by Dr. Donald Kirkpatrick in 1959, remains the gold standard for training evaluation—yet there is a troubling implementation gap that undermines the very purpose of measurement. The lowest level of Kirpatrick’s model is the easiest to implement; going up the levels takes increasingly more effort, but also yields the most valuable insights.

This session will provide a systematic, conservative approach to measuring training value.

*All attendees will receive a link to a robust ROI calculator and a detailed guide.

Take-aways:

This session will provide a systematic, conservative approach to measuring training value. By understanding its assumptions and following best practices, you can:

Build compelling business cases for experiential learning.
Make data-driven decisions about training investments.
Demonstrate accountability to stakeholders.
Continuously improve program effectiveness.

The Change Transition: It’s a Human Thing | August 2025 Expert Insights Webinar

The Change Transition: It’s a Human Thing

Past Expert Insights Webinar

The mantra “Change is Hard” is insufficient.

Change and the transition process that creates change is human.

And humans are unique and messy. While change management provides valuable tools to organizational leaders, the fact is that each human experiences each change in a different way and at a different pace. That is why organizational change occurs one person at a time. This Expert Insights session will present a Transition Process theory.

Take-aways:

Learn a research-supported transition process
Understand why some change is hard, and some change is easy
Appreciate the transition process that others are experiencing

Audience: ALL

Managers, team leaders, and HR professionals
Mentors and mentees from all generations
Organizations interested in enhancing workplace culture and collaboration
Employees seeking career development opportunities
