Our Learning Management System (LMS) supports and strengthens every learner to ensure your brand promise is delivered to your people, and to the world.  We view learning as the path to a stronger culture, a greater brand, and vital to building communities of employees, customers, and partners.

We’re (virtually) gathering to continue the conversation in PT III of our webinar series: Reflections & Projections – Implementing Your L&D Programs. 

We will be tackling all things implementation. We will work through company buy-in of tech solutions, how to actually find the right partnerships in those tech solution providers, and how to make it all happen - to drive success!

In our time together, we’ll be covering: 
- How to communicate the full-value of your programs company-wide (aka buy-in!) 
- How to actually find the right partnerships in tech-solution providers
- How to make it all happen and implement programs that drive success

If you’re just joining us, welcome! This is the third and final webinar in a series of L&D centered virtual events aimed to bring analysis and action to your internal programs.

Reflections & Projections Pt III | Implementing Your L&D Programs

We’re (virtually) gathering to continue the conversation in PT II of our webinar series: Reflections & Projections – Diving Deep into L&D Programs with Wisetail leader Rebecca Blanksma. 

In our time together, Rebecca will facilitate reflection-prompting exercises that will support us in taking a more extensive look at our own L&D programs, all to to identify gaps in strategy and plan for the upcoming year. In our 30 short minutes, we will touch on:

The who – L&D is about supporting your people. Let’s emphasize the people part of HR and get to the core of who these programs are about.      
The why – What is the driver of this conversation for you? Why should we all take a moment to identify gaps in growth programs?
The what – Let’s identify what those programs are, the goals of them, and define success.

If you’re just joining us, welcome! This is the second webinar in a series of L&D centered virtual events aimed to bring analysis and action to your internal programs.

Reflections & Projections Pt II | Diving Deep into L&D Programs

A new year always prompts reflection. As we ease into 2023, lets (virtually) gather to talk the good, the bad, and the exciting of the past year and - really - dive into what's to come in the L&D space in 2023. Through an open panel discussion with Wisetail leaders Ali Knapp, Ryan White, and Kat Claypool, we will have a look-back at 2022, assess where we sit in the present with L&D trends, then anticipate where the learning industry will take us in the future. We hope you join us for a short pause and reset for the year. Bring your coffee, tea, and questions! 

Ps: And if that's not enough excitement, everyone who joins will get coffee on us!

Reflections & Projections | The Past, Present, and Future of L&D in 2023

Checklists have long been considered a standard tool for managing processes and completing required tasks.  However, to empower employees, create a culture of workplace safety, and ultimately modify behaviors, learning and development must coexist within checklists. Join us for a webinar focused on all things checklists. Our team will highlight the reported habits and behaviors that put businesses at risk of checklist failure, why learning is an essential component of daily operational tasks and habits, along with key findings of a recent survey of frontline workers who use checklists in their day to day. We will break down how our dynamic checklist tool, OnTrack, puts training professionals in the driver's seat to create a proactive relationship between daily operational tasks and learning—ultimately transforming your company from better into the best experience for workers, guests, and the community. 

At the end, you’ll receive a sneak peek into OnTrack. You'll experience how this tool is transforming companies to better engage frontline employees and its foundational impact on business growth. 

Key Takeaways
- Why checklists alone aren’t enough.
- The value of pairing your training and development strategies with daily operational activities. 
- How to implement an operational strategy that emphasizes learning.
- Technology’s role in creating optimal guest experiences. 
- Sneak peek of our essential checklist tool - OnTrack.

Q3 Best of Show

In the last two years, the word "pivot" has ran parallel with the words "new normal." We have performed hardcore, strategic maneuvering through murky waters into drastic newness. And here we are - yet again - facing relentless economic predictions of recession, team scale backs, and a downward slope in what we have built up. Just more hurdles to add to our resumes' we suppose!

Join us as we dive deeper into what this means for learning and development. You're invited to participate in an inside-access webinar with a panel of Wisetail thought-leaders. We will open the floor to questions, comments, and collaborative discussion of pivoting L&D initiatives, what it means to be using existing resources, diversifying team learning strategy, and more.

Preparing to Pivot: What to do when the world says "Hold My Drink!"

As learning & development professionals, there is a never-ending aspiration for better - better onboarding, better training programs, better retention, and better teams. Nick Kyle and his team at Bagel Brands pinned down an ingredient in their better recipe: training delivery.

- Why Bagel Brands refined the focus within their onboarding and training efforts
- How Bagel Brands has found value in people-centric onboarding

Their Success is Our Success: The Importance of Implementation Strategies

Join us as we participate in BrightTalk's HR Tech Summit! We will be tackling all aspects of positive candidate experiences and how those experiences shape company culture. Does a potential employee’s candidate experience shape company culture? Does it improve team retention? Does your recruitment process directly reflect your company’s mission statement and pillars of values? Join us as the Wisetail team examines how the recruitment process directly reflects company mission statements and pillars of values, which all correlate to positive candidate experiences.

Tech & Hiring: Promoting Culture in Positive Candidate Experiences

Our slogan is “turning companies into communities,” and there’s no better way to show you how to use our LMS and LXP solutions to turn your company into a community than to show you how we do it here at Wisetail. 

We sat down with Emily Wood, Wisetail’s Internal Learning Management Specialist, as she walked us through how she keeps employees engaged and promotes company culture in a remote world using our own LXP, Apex.

How Wisetail Uses Wisetail

We all know that it is unlawful—and bad business—to consider an applicant’s or employee’s gender, race, color, religion, etc. in making a hiring or promotion decision. But sometimes we do so implicitly—that is, without conscious awareness. This may raise legal issues and it most certainly raises business/HR issues. This program focuses on types of implicit bias that may infect hiring and promotional processes. Tests to uncover implicit bias also are explored, as well as the sometimes unconsidered risks of those tests. The program includes a discussion of training options to help bring unconscious bias to conscious awareness without creating discoverable data that can be used against the organization. Because promotions are often tied to evaluations, particular attention will be paid to implicit bias in appraisals. Finally, the webinar concludes with systemic safeguards to mitigate the potential for unconscious bias to rear its ugly head from screening to decision making.

Our objectives will be to recognize the sources that inform our implicit bias and learn how to mitigate against them. We will move beyond just awareness of the existence of bias and obtain techniques and processes to minimize their impact on decision-making. Additionally, we will uncover how micro-aggressions have a deleterious effect on our workplace and the morale of our employees and enhance our tools to combat such attitudes. Lastly, we will discover the business case for diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging and how implicit bias massively prevents DEIB from taking hold in a meaningful way.

Implicit Bias: Awareness is Not Enough – Let’s Take Action!

- How he has implemented his philosophy and methodology at Burger King

One of the greatest parts of the Wisetail Well-being at Work webinar series has been meeting incredible human beings. As we roll into Episode 10, we have another one for you, Bitsy Esparza. This powerhouse owns the Black Widow MMA studio, based in Austin, Texas, where she is also Head Coach. As they say on their Black Widow Facebook page, “Our tribe is a vibe” and it is a vibe you want to be a part of. For the first time, we will focus our webinar fully to the physical well-being space. Join us as we start off with Bisty's story about why she is where she is and then move onto reaping those benefits that you already know come with physical activity.  In case you have some pre-conceived notions about Muay Thai – here’s what this hour is NOT going to be: ·      Too hard ·      Too aggressive ·      Too boring ·      A cocktail (that’s Mai Tai and an entirely different vibe)  And here are some of the benefits you can enjoy by participating: ·      A blend of aerobic and anaerobic exercises (you get strength and endurance) ·      Stress relief (endorphins!) ·      Boosts of self-confidence, self-discipline and self-respect (it’s all about you) ·      Self-defence moves (yep, working out just got smarter)
