Share Your Genius: 35 Tips to Create Training That Transforms

You need to create a training course, but you have no idea where to start! Sure, you’d love to take a class or read a textbook on Instructional Design, but there’s no time for that. You need to begin now! This tip book is for you. Learn the basics in a quick and easy-to-read format. Each tip tells you what you need to know in about 400 words or less. Conversational, to the point, and best of all—useful. It’s like having an Instructional Designer on speed dial!

Making a lasting, positive impact on your organizational culture.

Retain Your Workforce

You’ve heard it before: people don’t leave jobs — they leave managers. Equip leaders to address performance issues, expectations, and conflict early and effectively, reducing costly turnover and preserving institutional knowledge.

Upskill Your Team

Build leadership capability where it matters most. Upskill leaders with the communication, feedback, and conflict-management skills required to lead confidently, make decisions, and hold others accountable without damaging relationships.

Calibrate Your Communication

Create a shared leadership language for navigating tough conversations. Align leaders around clear expectations, consistent messaging, and a common approach to feedback and conflict — so strategy doesn’t break down in execution.
