Reset Your Learning Culture
This Content is for All-Access Passholders Only
After 20 years of developing innovative hands-on learning solutions for a multitude of industry included clubs, McKinley has some ideas to share. The pandemic flipped our delivery model on its head and we did what we are known for; we learned, we resigned, and we innovated. Mark will walk you through the journey from traditional classroom model learning to zoom, and many many more options in between.
The club business is the people business first and foremost. The people that count the most are your staff. Take care of them and they will take care of the members and guests. If you want to compete in the war for talent, learning and development is not an option. It is a critical factor in attracting and retaining the right people.
What does your learning culture look like at your club? How are you investing in your direct reports? Is learning a strategic pillar in your planning? How are you building leaders from within? How are balancing technology and human connection in your learning solutions?
