- 6. A WEEK IN THE LIFE OF AN L&D TEAM: 1. A sponsor is no longer able to provide the examples that they felt that were critical that they contribute. 2. A video that has been storyboarded, edited, filmed, motion graphics added …. now needs to be done in a different style. 3. In revealing a prototype of mobile learning to field personnel, they tell us that we’re solving the wrong problem. 4. We’re building training for software that is currently being developed & configured and therefore changing as we build it. 5. On some machines and some browsers, the course interactions don’t work at all.
- 7. A WEEK IN THE LIFE OF AN ORGANIZATION: 1. A critical customer is no longer able to take delivery on a massive order, leaving you with excess perishable inventory. 2. A marketing piece that’s poised and ready to drop …. is now completely tone deaf given current events. 3. In revealing a prototype of a new product to key customers, they tell us that our competitor has already solved this problem. 4. Our processes are being automated and improved by artificial intelligence and therefore changing as we build them. 5. In some countries and some cultures, the product we are about to release is offensive in some horrible way.
