  Join us in June for our first SiG: Leadership group event!

  We are kicking off the Leadership Special Interest Group (SIG) with Dave Fogleman, SkillPath's Chief Learning Officer, sharing his experience of joining a new company in a leadership role. What did he do to begin a new leadership role? How did he inspire leadership in his own team?

  This short "share your work" by Dave will be followed by table group discussions so everyone gets the opportunity to discuss this issue with other members of our community. Take advantage of this sharing opportunity to meet new people, learn from others, and add to your idea toolbox.

  This event is free to ATD KC members and just $10 for non-members.

  Four Levels of Gamification Integration:
  Which will you use?

  Gamification drives engagement, but learning designers too often have a narrow view of gamification--reducing it to points, badges, and leaderboards. Others think gamification involves an actual game. In fact, there are four "levels" of the integration of game mechanics in learning program gamification integration with examples from innovative companies and institutions. You will not only gain a better understanding of gamification, but you'll also be inspired by the examples to create engaging learning experiences.

  EiP Winner Presentation: Mission Ready Factory

  Does your organization face issues with employee lag or downtime? What should employees do while they are waiting on training or certifications?

  This session covers how the Honeywell Learning & Development team created Mission Ready Factory, a training factory that allows new employees to build training kits in a simulated environment. Throughout the session, you’ll learn about the needs assessment performed to identify the program, the steps taken to develop and implement the factory, and the evaluated results of those efforts.

  Tyler Dixon is a Business Partner at the Kansas City National Security Campus managed by Honeywell. In his role, he partners with three divisions to perform needs assessments and lead strategic projects for his internal customers. Tyler joined the Learning & Development team in 2017 as an Instructional Designer, designing the company’s new-hire training program and introducing interactivity and microlearning to the eLearning catalog. Prior to Honeywell, Tyler was on the Learning Solutions team at ScriptPro, where he designed and facilitated learning programs on robotics systems. Tyler is a graduate of Kansas State University, where he studied Marketing, Japanese, and International Business.
