A Simpler Time True CrimeA Simpler Time True CrimeThe Disappearance of Shannon SherrillSend us a textA kindergartner is playing hide and seek with neighborhood friends on an unseasonably warm fall day. She runs off barefoot to find a hiding spot, but her friends can't find her. In fact, nobody could. The neighborhood had plenty of people outside to witness something happening, but nobody saw anything. The case has haunted locals and led through a maze of terrifying leads involving sexual predators and serial killers. But to this day, Shannon has never been found and nobody has been held responsible for her disappearance.https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-kokomo-tribune-shannon-s-1994/149157469/https...2024-06-1744 minWake Up Memphis PodcastWake Up Memphis PodcastSheriff Shannon Beasley InterviewTipton County Sheriff Shannon Beasley phones into Wake Up Memphis to address the man shot in Memphis who was from Tipton County, fighting crime, and allowing cops to do their jobs. 2024-04-1511 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastWhen Training isn’t Successful: Bridging the Learning/Doing GapIt all started with the BIG question on the table.     How can we ensure that the skills and knowledge acquired during training are effectively applied in the workplace?   We've all been there - we create what we feel is a learning solution that can't go wrong...then it does.   Most of us have been there, done that, bought the tee-shirt and don't want to go back.   We know that training fails for two reasons Lack of feedback mechanism and Lack of learning reinforcement   ...2024-01-1146 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastThe Future of Instructional DesignIt all started with the BIG question on the table.     What skills will L&D need in order to remain relevant in the business world of the future?   L&D is undergoing a seismic shift.

His background in computer programming, IT and now cyber security clearly informs how he sees the internet. It developed his curious mindset around “what can the internet do for me” and setting up systems that allow him to find all...2023-09-2139 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastThe Skill of Creative Problem Solving: So What, Now What?It all started with the BIG question on the table. What are the important steps to prepare us and stakeholders for more creative thinking when it comes to learning solutions?   Note: Our previous coffee chat was different. The coffee chat crowd worked through a variety of creative problem solving techniques in break-out rooms and discussed their applicability. And because of this, we didn’t post the audio.   However, this week, we carried over the conversation and focused on the "So What, Now What?" behind our next steps.   Here’...2023-09-0748 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastRethink and Redesign: The Power of Creative Problem SolvingIt starts with a question: Why are we trying to tackle today’s problems with yesterday's thinking?   Don’t you want to create learning solutions that are more than just “tick a box?”   Don’t you want solutions that are tailored to fit the unique needs and aspirations of the people in your organization?   Sure you do, and collectively getting ideas from key people allows the best innovations to bubble to the top.   So why do we try to develop innovative solutions with traditional development practices? 2023-08-3118 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels Live with Kevin YatesGoing LIVE with Kevin Yates, the L&D Detective!   After getting to know Kevin over the past year, his passion for the industry and his community was contagious and I knew I had to share his story.   Kevin’s journey   I did not know that Kevin had been a second-grade teacher!

I thought you had.”   “Nope.”    “Why not?”    Cue: Awkward silence.    Truth is, I’ve been asked to write a book several times. But I just can’t get out of my own head to do so. About this time, I saw an HBR article about Imposter Syndrome. The universe calls.    So I hope this episode helps you to see that if y...2023-07-2613 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastThe When, What and How Behind Knowledge Management ToolsIt all started with the BIG question on the table.   When it comes to knowledge management tools, how can we leverage them effectively and what features should we be looking for?   A lot of information being shared here!   In our last coffee chat episode, we discussed the benefits of collecting stories and information.

And while most of us know her for her ability to create e-learning designs for companies like Cisco, it was her journey from teacher to designer that caught my interest.   Christy’s journey   I have been lucky enough to be connected with Christy for a few years, and we frequently cross paths at assorted conferences. Christy also just recently hosted a Learning Rebels “Learn Something New Wedne...2023-07-0528 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastUnlocking Organizational KnowledgeIt all started with the BIG question on the table.   How can we keep up with the knowledge and gather the stories that are leaving the business every day?   There were a lot of ideas flowing in this chat. Everything from tools to processes. However, it all boils down to how we gather the knowledge and stories of people. People have a funny way of deciding how they want to tell and share their stories.   This means starting with the basics.   Seek first to understand! 2023-06-2847 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastBridging the Business Communication GapIt all started with the BIG question on the table.   What strategies can L&D professionals employ to enhance cross-departmental communication and put us on a more even playing field with the business?   This was a hot conversation - I think we all had some latent feelings about how we want and need to communicate with the business.   I'll repeat this in case you missed it. Many times we focus on having a "seat at the table," which is great, but we're focused on the wrong table. We're focused on...2023-06-2148 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels Solo - The Power of ConferencesIt’s all so exciting!   In this Learning Rebels Solo, I wanted to focus my energy on diving into the power of attending conferences for professional growth.

Our role within the workplace today goes way beyond that. Our role requires a skill that may not be familiar to many L&D professionals and could be a bit uncomfortable, being business partners.   Building business partnerships isn’t just a nice-to-have skill – it’s a must-have skill.   The...2023-06-0151 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLR Solo - Why We All Need Coaching and MentoringIt all started with a Coffee Chat. We asked this question:   How can L&D maximize the value of working with a coach or mentor for their own professional growth and development, and what are some effective strategies for building a coaching or mentoring program that can be sustainable within an organization?   I felt this conversation was important enough to add some additional thoughts. As a refresher, here are some of the mentioned links.   This podcast calls back to this Learning Rebels Blog Post: Everyone Needs a Coa...2023-05-2412 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastCoaching and Mentoring Yourself and OthersIt all started with the BIG question on the table. How can L&D maximize the value of working with a coach or mentor for their own professional growth and development, and what are some effective strategies for building a coaching or mentoring program that can be sustainable within an organization?   This was an interesting conversation. When considering coaching and mentoring programs, we take many things for granted - we assume people know where to go and what to do.   Do we know the difference between coaching and mentoring? What baggage can a...2023-05-1741 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastUnexpected Discoveries: Encouraging Serendipitous LearningIt all started with the BIG question on the table. How can we help create momentum around looking for and “seeing” the unexpected? How can we encourage employees to take the time and explore resources to see new topics for learning and discover new ideas outside their immediate job responsibilities?   This was a fun conversation with many ideas. I found that many of the ideas could also be applied to our Coffee Chat about Creative Debriefing.   Debriefing Video here Debriefing Podcast Episode here   I like how the convers...2023-05-0346 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels in 15: Debunking Learning MythsYour weekly double shot is “Debunking Learning Myths: What is Our Responsibility?”     You can find the full live video conversation here. Find the full podcast here   It all started with the question: How does Learning and Development (L&D) handle learning myths? Not about how to bust them but how to address them when they appear in the wild. When a colleague or manager states a myth as truth - now what? How can we handle this with grace and patience? Without making others feel inferior or stupid...2023-04-2609 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning from Others, Building a Collaborative Learning CultureHow meta was this episode? People collaborating about collaboration.   So many great ideas were shared in this episode. In particular, it was an ah-ha moment for me to attribute the “Fight, Flight or Freeze” reflex into a learning situation. And it’s true! If people are scared, worried, or fearful, solid collaboration simply won’t occur.   There was also mention of recognizing the difference between cooperative and collaborative learning.   Cooperative learning involves a group of individuals working together to achieve a common goal or complete a task. In contrast...2023-04-2153 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels in 15: Creative Ways to Debrief and Add Reflection to LearningYour weekly double shot is “Creative Ways to Debrief and Add Reflection to Learning”     You can find the full live conversation here.   It all started with the question: What are your creative solutions for debriefing and reflection, and how can we incorporate these ideas into virtual and online learning experiences? Let's face it, if you want to make learning stick, proper debriefing and allowing for reflection is critical.   In this Learning Rebels in 15 we are hearing from:   Andrew J.

A well-moderated debrief session also makes learners aware of future learning requirements to lift current learning to a new level.   This chat offered some stellar ideas - but as usual, it all begins with the person in the front of the room. Are we setting aside our ego...2023-03-2252 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels Live with Gloria AlvarezGoing LIVE with Gloria Alvarez!   Serendipity hit when I connected with Gloria! Finding an LD person who did not only have visual design skills but was educated at the Art Institute of Houston…well that’s the universe talking. And I had to take advantage of it!   Why this, Why now?   The art of visual design is often treated as an afterthought with L&D. However, with tools such as Canva at our fingertips, there is no excuse for bad design. Bad visual design creates an unnecessary barrier...2023-03-1528 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastDebunking Learning MythsSuch an energetic conversation!   One of the things we discussed was the importance of having grace.   Remember, tribal knowledge can be a hard thing to fight. We all have biases that get in the way of learning something different or keeps us from course correcting.   Critical is the idea of doing your own research. Take information from someone you trust, and conduct some research with an unbiased eye.   THIS is how we beat back myths. By growing our own knowledge and providing guidance when...2023-03-0852 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastFour Lessons I’ve Learned in My Career of Learning and DevelopmentHost: Shannon Tipton    In this solo podcast, I wanted to share with you the lessons I’ve learned in my 30 years in Learning and Development.    When I started, I knew less than nothing about adult and workplace learning from an educational perspective. My educational background was in Business, not people. And this was WAY before the advent of the Google machine.   What I did have in my possession was an old ATD handbook from the 1970s. Which, surprisingly, is still relevant today.   I read,2023-03-0113 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastBuilding a Habit of Continuous LearningSo many great ideas were shared in this episode that I wouldn’t blame you if you didn’t know where to start - so here are some ideas for you.   Sometimes we just need to step away. Shake off the work vibes and shift your location or mindset. Create triggers that tell your mind you're ready to learn! Don't just make a date with learning on your calendar.

I suppose now, I could write a post about how "Instructional design isn't dead. It just has a new name".   But as Shakespeare said, "A rose by another name is still a rose." And this holds true for instructional design.   Today’s chat took us through a journey of what the role of instructional desig...2023-02-0844 minLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels PodcastLearning Rebels Live with Andrew JacobsGoing LIVE with Andrew Jacobs!   It’s always nice to have Andrew Jacobs, owner of Llarn Learning Services, visit the Learning Rebels Coffee Chat and share his expertise in the L&D field.

However, they fail us when trying to create larger goals for our personal and professional growth and development.   We need to dig deeper.   Where's the stretch? Where's the motivation?

At the same time, companies are spending billions of dollars on sales training each year. That’s billions of dollars wasted on training that disappoints and only produces short-term boosts in sales”.   There’s nothing Sales Leaders hate more than wasted time and wasted money.

This was the question on the table as we discussed learning from failure. This was an interesting chat – there were many directions to take, as people process failure in a variety of different ways.

But it's not something we all do. The reasons are varied: The business doesn't give me time I don't have access to important data The expectation is "butts in seats" The hard truth is that, when planning learning initiatives for your business, there is an expectation for something to happen.
