While learning programs are going more digital,
don’t forget that your company has many internal experts who have knowledge to
share. Those specialists have expertise in areas that affect different parts of
the business.
For example,
the logistics manager will have insight into how the supply chain affects
whether products are delivered on time. When marketing needs to set product
launch dates, it’s critical to partner with the logistics manager.
What if
marketing could get a download from the logistics manager before ever
scheduling a meeting?
Your company
can create learning content developed by your own internal experts. Here are
some things you can do:
·
Have
departments record introductory videos about responsibilities and contacts
·
Launch
a wiki for the product development team to give everyone the ability to learn the
ins and outs of your new offering
·
Set
up Google+ Hangout events with your executive team and
let employees ask about new initiatives or strategic direction — or allow people
to collaborate remotely on projects
·
Record
radio and webinar broadcasts that feature your employees and share them on the
internal network
·
Invite
teams to host “Lunch and Learn” events to keep everyone abreast of what’s
happening in other departments
·
Let
authors of internal process manuals deliver a recorded presentation of rules,
processes, or best practices to follow so new employees have access to
onboarding resources
