Our process linking learning objectives to desired outcomes
A multi-step process covering content, delivery modes, methodologies and impact metrics.
With the advent of generative AI, executives today have more knowledge at their disposition than ever before. The pivotal concern now lies not in the ‘what’ but in the ‘how’ – and in how to effectively turn knowledge into action.
Our learning philosophy emphasises practice, feedback and reflection as much as knowledge dissemination. This is essential for internalising change for the longer term – to help break previous habits and form new.
Our designs build in consistent and repeated reflection, sense-making and feedback loops as participants experiment and apply their learnings.
The first stage is knowledge dissemination, where we share IMD’s thought leadership & insights + external & internal real-world examples.
Throughout all custom programs, we build spaces for individual and collective analysis of implications & meaning.
Knowledge sharing is a critical step, and we engage in provocative discussions to challenge, stimulate, energize & stretch thinking.
We believe in repetition & perseverance to embed new habits, actions, mindsets & behaviors.
The learning journeys are ongoing processes that invite for continuous individual reflection, analysis, coaching, peer exchange & objective assessments.
Learning modes that fit your organization’s style
Our program designs adapt to your organization’s needs, blending traditional and technology-mediated learning modes for maximum impact.
Our design approach begins with your organization’s objectives, priorities, abilities and constraints concerning the program. We then design to meet your organizational learning goals, using the most appropriate delivery modes, which can include face-to-face interactions, online and live virtual sessions, virtual reality exercises, and sessions on the metaverse, among other technologies that enhance the learning experience. We also have the agility and flexibility to switch delivery mode swiftly as circumstances might dictate.
Our 13 principles for impact when designing custom programs
Measuring impact during and at the end of the journey
We believe our guiding principles deliver custom learning solutions that drive long-lasting impact in organizations.
The focus of IMD measurements is not on the inputs – but on outputs, outcomes and therefore longer term, lasting impact. Our approach is highly collaborative, and we work closely with your team to ensure that the program aligns with your business objectives and delivers measurable results.
Together we will define a meaningful set of measure, qualitative and quantitative, across these different dimensions in order to actively monitor the impact of the program as we move forward.
