Be Less Human to Improve Your Learning & Development Programs

The issue with developing people is that (unless you train animals) your audience includes, well…people!  And to further complicate things, YOU, the person designing, developing or delivering the experience is also (most likely) also a human!

In this interactive session, Howie Milstein, Annoyance and Provocateur with The Institute to Stop Taking Yourself So Seriously, will help instructional designers, trainers, coaches and anyone who works to develop people, recognize key issues to watch out for when designing, developing or delivering learning and development experiences.

Session attendees will:

  • Recognize how biases, insecurities and other natural instincts can unconsciously hijack our best intentions, getting in the way of creating a positive growth and learning experiences for others.
  • Learn how to avoid creating conditions that unintentionally alienate or discourage learners.

Meet the Presenter: 

A strong adherent to the ideas of Self Determination Theory, including the principles of autonomy, mastery and purpose, Howie Milstein learned that acquiring an understanding of motivation was only half the battle. In order to optimize culture, employee engagement, and predictable outcomes, he had to become deeply introspective and choose the best leadership style to nurture innovation, passion and growth. When he stopped taking himself so seriously, things got better. Much better. 

As the CEO/Provocateur with the Institute to Stop Taking Yourself So Seriously!, Howie’s message is that, while there are myriad options to attempt cultural change in organizations, perhaps the only thing is for individuals to seriously manage their egos. Jobs and careers aren’t just for economic sustenance, rather they are a means to access and contribute to healthy communities where individuals are emotionally bolstered, challenged, and valued.
