We help companies develop the world’s most productive and admired workforces.

Whether you lead Learning and Development or head up Human Resources, OpenSesame provides the courses, technology and helpful services you need to achieve your goals.

Unproductive meetings, endless emails, and reports-for-the-sake-of-reporting aren’t the definition of meaningful work—they’re the result of complexity. Complexity is killing companies’ ability to innovate and adapt, and simplicity is fast becoming the competitive advantage of our time. 

With the rise of remote and hybrid roles, employees are turning to meetings and emails to feel connected and ensure clear communication. Now is the time to eliminate this complexity so your organization can become more productive, efficient, and innovative and gain competitive advantage in the marketplace. 

In this webinar, CEO and TED-talk veteran Lisa Bodell will discuss techniques to eradicate complexity and get back to meaningful work that drives innovative change. Lisa will share how leaders can create a culture where valuable, essential, meaningful work is the norm. Get the techniques used by the nimblest of companies to save time, kill rules, and boost productivity on the work that matters. By killing complexity, you’ll increase customer trust, staff retention, and innovate faster.

In this webinar, Lisa will discuss:
- Why simplification is the competitive advantage of our time
- How to recognize which activities are time-sucks and which create lasting value
- Practical and effective tools that enable employees to make simplification a habit
- 6 steps leaders can take to “set the tone” for simplicity

Killing Complexity – Why Simple Wins

As the world continues to accelerate and change in the face of huge environmental, technological and cultural shifts, the need for upskilling and reskilling has grown in importance. No one can stand still in their existing roles, and changes in the world of work and how we work mean that we all need to be learning if we want to survive.

So what should L&D teams be thinking about as they look to support the growth of skills in their organisation? What works and what are the implications of upskilling and reskilling for learning strategy, learning solutions and content choices? And what really helps people to succeed as they forge new careers or take advantage of emerging roles at work?

In this webinar, David Perring, Director of Research at Fosway Group and Mehdi Tounsi, Senior Regional Director EMEA at OpenSesame, will explore: 
- Why upskilling and reskilling is so important in today’s economy
- Where organisations are today and what’s changing in how organisations upskill and reskill their people
- How innovative approaches to upskilling and reskilling are impacting organisations’ ability to energise, retain and attract great people
- How L&D can optimise ‘learning through work’ to deliver more agile upskilling and reskilling

Learning for Upskilling and Reskilling: A Survival Guide

Employers are fighting to keep their employees happy and healthy, but are they doing the same for themselves? 
Managing the day-to-day challenges of a remote workforce, while watching your best employees leave, is a recipe for stress and anxiety. As a leader, you feel the responsibility to serve, support with positivity, and have answers to all uncertainties. Contrary to popular belief, the stress in leadership is often highly addictive, so much so that leaders fail to understand they’re even experiencing it. But even if your mind refuses to acknowledge it, your body at some point does. 

In this webinar, Amplify Voices Award-Winning Chief Content Officer Audrey Cavenecia will talk about experiencing high levels of unidentified stress herself, how it changed her perspective of work and life, and how it taught her to feel her inner self more. She will walk you through various examples and experiments to teach you the good and bad aspects of stress and how to train your mind to handle it the way it should.

Burnout In Leadership: What It Does and How To Avoid It

Join this masterclass webinar with L&D expert, Chairman of the Learning and Performance Institute Donald H. Taylor, for a deep dive into the results of this year’s Global Sentiment Survey.

The 2022 L&D Global Sentiment Survey asked the global HR and L&D community – “What will be hot in workplace learning in 2022?”

During this webinar, Donald will identify this year’s digital learning trends and what they mean for the future of workplace learning. Donald explains how these trends differ from region to region, which “hot topics” from the previous year are cooling down, and how the pandemic has impacted the trends we see within the L&D industry.

Employee onboarding may have changed locations, now occurring at home or in a remote environment, but the core purpose - to set employees up for success by driving employee engagement, productivity and feeling connected - has not changed.

This webinar will explore current and future onboarding practices and their impact on talent and organizational development. Join Cliff Stevenson, Principal Analyst, Talent Acquisition of Brandon Hall Group and Ashley Brown, Senior Customer Success Manager of OpenSesame, as they discuss the importance of leveraging a strategic onboarding plan, including supporting technology. A few of the benefits of such an onboarding plan include:
 
• Aligning employee thinking with a company’s mission and vision so they feel connected to each other and to the organization regardless of location
• Preparing employees with the right skills for their current role, and equip them to grow within the organization
• Delivering advanced analytics and more robust employee experience

Brandon Hall Group research has shown that the highest-performing organizations have onboarding strategies that are streamlined, uniform in process but specific to their role, include learning solutions that allow audiences to engage in many different formats, and have clear operational goals attached to best practices. More than that, these organizations understand the social, collaborative, and empathetic nature of people, who want to feel connected and not simply counted as productivity units. 
 
• Learn best practices from your peers, as we spotlight real-life enterprise onboarding case studies                 
• Understand how to develop an optimized onboarding process (not just technology or “programs”)
• Explain the reasoning behind better processes, how to create communities, and how to define and measure success in onboarding
• Create onboarding activities that are relevant to new hires in 2022 and beyond

Onboarding in 2022: What has Changed, and What Remains Critically Important

Going remote means organizations can now build their teams across state lines, and even across oceans, making workforces more diverse than ever. How do you unify a team of different locations, time zones, backgrounds, and experiences? 

As a leader of your organization, one of your key goals should not only be to maintain company culture, but enrich it. Employees deserve to feel connected and protected, even through a computer screen. Employee relationships are no longer organically developing, making it crucial to have a process in place to build a unified workforce.  

When transitioning to a fully remote workforce, Abby Miles, Senior Director of People at OpenSesame, identified effective and innovative methods to enrich our organization’s culture. Our culture is our organization’s backbone, and we relied heavily on our People team to ensure employees felt connected and supported. She is excited to share her insights and is eager to have an open, honest conversation about the challenges HR, People, and Culture roles have been faced with post-pandemic. In this webinar, Abby will discuss:
How OpenSesame’s recruiting and onboarding efforts adapted after transitioning to a remote workforce
Methods to enrich company culture and engage employees when physically distanced
Strategic considerations for organizations preparing for their workforce transition
More about Abby Miles:
With more than 15 years of experience in the learning technology industry, Abby knows what it takes to build productive and engaged teams. She combines that expertise with her passion for people to lead OpenSesame’s recruiting, training, DEI, and employee experience initiatives.

Unifying a Remote Workforce

In a recent study, 91% of CEO’s see a need to change their sourcing and recruiting strategy. It is necessary to have new techniques, tools, and processes for recruiters to meet the shift to the hybrid-working model. 

The Great Resignation is putting too much emphasis on filling jobs quickly, rather than on finding and hiring the best person possible long-term. The result? – underperformance, dissatisfaction, and unnecessary turnover. By hiring for the anniversary date, rather than the start date, you will avoid most of these problems and attract stronger people.

Prioritize employee career progression and shift to a longer-term lens and your organization will:

Gain confidence when sourcing, interviewing, and recruiting
Increase employee retention and performance
Save time & money
In this upcoming webinar, recruiting and hiring expert Lou Adler will discuss how to attract a great hire that everyone will be happy with on the first anniversary date. 

Learn how to:
Spot the difference between great hires and great candidates
Craft job descriptions to attract more diverse, high-potential talent
Measure performance in an interview to test if the candidate can actually do the job
Identify candidates who view the job as a career move

The 21-Day Plan for Disarming Microaggressions

Microlearning is one of the least understood trends in workplace training today. Everyone wants to go micro and many of us have already done so. But going micro is more than just delivering bite-sized content. There are many different use cases and formats for microlearning, so everyone says they’re using microlearning, but they are all doing something vastly different.

This creates a tremendous challenge for us to identify best design practices, delivery approaches, and implementation methods. When we actually understand HOW we are going micro, we have a far greater chance of doing it successfully.

In this session, you’ll identify how to go micro with the greatest impact in your curriculum. First we’ll share 4 primary use cases for microlearning. Then we’ll get tactical! We’ll identify 20 ways you can go micro and you will identify which of these would work best in your curriculum. We will also share an example of one approach that has worked for us. You will leave this session with fresh ideas for incorporating microlearning successfully in your curriculum!

20 Ways You Can Go Micro
