When our stakeholders come to us asking for training, they are usually thinking of traditional training.  So, they treat us, nonprofit L&D pros, like training factories that can easily produce a new training in a day. But we are here to create behavior change, and that takes time.

In this episode, I'm sharing four recommendations that will help you embody the change agent you already are and learn what you need to create real change in your organization.

▶️ You're Not a Training Factory. You are a Change Agent.

▶️ Key Points:

0:00:00 The process of creating real behavior change

0:05:41 Shift from learning designer to change agent

0:06:35 Sell real change to your stakeholders

0:09:05 Study learning science to get the buy-in you need
