AI is disrupting knowledge management. How do we connect to performance? From LLMs generating content to chatbots surfacing just-in-time resources, the knowledge management landscape is radically changing. Now is the time to revisit how improved knowledge can enable workplace results.
Join SEWI-ATD’s Performance Improvement PDN as we discuss how knowledge management can enable performance. We’ll discuss the role of knowledge management in our portfolio of offerings, how to assess the value of improved knowledge management, and how to determine which innovations can meet a real business need.
About the Performance Improvement PDN
The SEWI-ATD Performance Improvement PDN is a collaborative group focused on practicing the skills of human performance improvement. We are talent development leaders, OD professionals, consultants, and other TD professionals who want to improve the performance towards our organization's goals.

Your SME just sent a PowerPoint deck with a request to build training. Now what? Your response to the ask is all about relationship building–both with the SME and with the learners in mind. In this session, you will get comfortable kicking off a project and conducting needs analyses. How do you move a training request from the ask to a productive build out? Bring examples of how you have worked with SMEs in the past (successes and struggles) to share.
The session will start at 8:30am, but we will be having a short networking time at 8:15am for anyone who gets on early.

We all know the oldest way to transfer knowledge, skills, cultural norms, beliefs, and values is via exceptional storytelling. But what is it about stories that have made them so successful in transferring learning throughout history? Much of it comes from storytelling’s appeal to the senses—the human experience. In this program, we’ll explore how to use stories to connect on a personal level: to experience, to learn, and possibly to even rethink one’s assumptions.
Learning Objectives:
Unlock the power of vivid storytelling (planned or spontaneous) to unleash classroom engagement and workplace application
Realize the importance of participant involvement to make the stories come alive on an individual level
Consider strategies that that turn stories into transferable skills

How you design your training deliverables impacts the success of both the learner and the trainer. Do your slides give away the secret sauce of your message? Is your facilitator guide too broad to support the trainer or too complicated to navigate? Join the Training Delivery PDN for a workshop-style approach to mitigating cognitive load on both your slides and in your guides for facilitators and participants.
