As an "into learning" professional, I look forward to learning together with all of you on this blog. There are so many great topics and sites where so many can learn and contribute so much. I would hope that on this site we can work together to solve problems that arise in our work as "workplace learning and performance professionals" [with a nod to ASTD there].
There are many blogs where experts share advanced strategies. Others where inexperienced professionals share questions. The exciting thing about the breadth of it all, is that since we are all different by nature and experience, we often need information and assistance at a specific level for it to really impact us.
My goal is to build a presence for professionals who communicate respectfully, who care deeply about applying the most appropriate methods of education and performance improvement in their organizations - be they corporate, educational, private, or personal.
A fundamental belief of mine is that all of us are created with different skills and gifts. That should be a "no-brainer" and we may believe that at some level, but often we don't act like we believe it. We sometimes let our fear restrict our outreach to others who possess skills, gifts, and perspectives that would be significant blessings in our lives.
My question to you, to start this blog would be, what do you see as the critical opportunities that you face in your professional life that a group of professionals could help you with? I welcome your honest participation and look forward to working with you!
