Are We At #PeakContent? What CLOs Can Learn From Marketers
Behavioral scientists have long known that choice fatigue — the exhaustion we feel when we make too many choices — inhibits our ability to make any choice at all. Apply this to corporate learning, and you have to wonder if your content strategy — combining learning resources from different providers that can amount to a library in the tens of thousands — is actually inhibiting learners from moving beyond their status quo. As CLOs are increasingly charged with driving organizational transformation, the status quo isn’t good enough. We will explore how principles from marketing and insights can reduce hidden barriers to learning.
We will cover such topics as:
- The difference between learner goals and program benefits.
- Counterfactuals as “moments of truth” — what would happen if you DIDN’T learn?
- Using defaults to reduce choice fatigue.
- Learning choice architecture
