Webinar: COVID-19: Then, Now and What’s Next
September 29, 2020 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm UTC+0
Join us for this LTEN webinar, sponsored by Salience Learning, where we discuss the challenges learning professionals face when supporting the learners (customer-facing field teams) and their leaders when “how we did it yesterday” becomes “how we need to do it today and into the future.” We will also explore examples for how we should “deconstruct the do” for our top two customer-facing skills in the virtual selling environment.
COVID-19: Then, Now and What’s Next
Tuesday, September 29, 2020 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM EDT
Across the globe, biopharma companies have sidelined their customer-facing teams due to a global pandemic. And yet, the expectation for those teams to continue delivering value, identifying customer needs and building customer relationships has not gone away. So, we must ask ourselves, if the field teams cannot do what they normally do, then how do we teach them to do it differently, virtually? Join us for this LTEN webinar, sponsored by Salience Learning, where we discuss the challenges learning professionals face when supporting the learners (customer-facing field teams) and their leaders when “how we did it yesterday” becomes “how we need to do it today and into the future.” We will also explore examples for how we should “deconstruct the do” for our top two customer-facing skills in the virtual selling environment. This webinar will address the following questions:
- How has a rapidly changing environment impacted the ability of customer-facing teams to perform?
- Why is it important to deconstruct how we translate capabilities and skills for a virtual customer engagement model?
- What benefits does starting with the “Do,” or a performance objective, provide a design?
- How do I “deconstruct a COVID-19 do” into its motivation, skill or knowledge components?
- How do I filter the components to identify the prioritized learning objectives?
