Companies spend a lot of time, effort and money on recruitment and onboarding. Recruitment firms can charge anywhere from 3% up to 25% of an employee’s salary. However, that’s not taking into account the internal time spent on recruiting and sales training.

Investing in building trust in the workplace, is crucial in today's climate. Trust is not just an expectation of behaviour, it’s an emotional brain state.

Effective training is important for both new hires, and existing employees. According to research, around 91% of employees remain with a business for a year and 69% remain for longer than three years when they were onboarded with a structured onboarding program.

Most of us would like to think of ourselves as free thinkers and individuals on our own paths, regardless of what others are doing. But are we really?

We include Stand Out in our behavioural insights mantra, so that we create a learning experience that people feel good about.

When an organisation goes through a transformation, there’s a list of actions that underpin changes, how do we make these achievable actions?

We should give people feedback on their performance as they go. Why? Feedback allows people to determine if they should re-evaluate their understanding or behaviour.

Telling stories in an authentic way with credible voices, is one way in which we make sure that the content our clients release to their employees is personally relevant.

If you work in innovation — whether in product development or service design

It would be lovely if someone could just remove anything irrelevant. When we cut it out we omit anything that isn't essential to carry out new actions.

When it comes to designing a learning experience we need to smooth it out to reduce friction costs that get in the way of behaviour change.

If you’ve ever watched hours of video tutorials on YouTube or trawled Google in search of a particular recipe, you’ve already embraced ‘just in time’ (JIT) learning.

Here at BAD, when we design experiences, we tell stories that will engage people and demonstrate good practice.

Learning is so often about self-discovery – how we feel about difficult situations, react to challenges, overcome adversity, handle pressure, celebrate success – these are all opportunities to include emotion in learning and create an experience that changes hearts as well as minds.

In this Digital Age, aka the Information Age, learning is available 24/7. But are we being bombarded with information that we no longer know how to process or even need to know?

There are some unexpected benefits to experiencing a little bit of stress. While heightened stress can feel overwhelming and decrease motivation, a little bit can help to kick-start your work, and actually enhance motivation.

Motivation is personal — we do things for different reasons and the ideal scenario for lasting behaviour change is when we choose to do something for our own personal reasons.

We all think in different ways. In the workplace, a wide range of talents is advantageous.

By our nature, humans want to... keep moving forward. We are keen to keep growing and progressing, whether in our personal or working lives. It’s suggested that a bias for action is an innate tendency. Ancestors would have needed to keep moving to survive. However, we’re no longer in life-threatening danger, so why do we still feel this need to drive forward? Today, work is our outlet for motivation, and how we progress in life. This bias for action can help to push individuals and organisations forward. In fact, monoliths like Amazon list “bias for action” as one of their key leadership principles.

The workplace can be a challenging place, for both employers and...

COVID-19 is responsible for some of the most dramatic examples of workplace change in recent memory. As the new philosophy of flexible work has arisen, the idea of working in an office five days a week is no longer the norm.

The workplace can be a tricky area to navigate. Communication issues and... lack of motivation can create a poor workplace culture. Ultimately, a poor culture affects employees more over time. Even the most productive employees can be impacted by their surroundings. Workplace problems can have a hugely negative effect on a company, with varying degrees of severity. This is an issue experienced by 85% of employees.. If they are unhappy, unmotivated and unproductive, something needs to be changed within that workplace culture. If this doesn't happen, you’ll struggle to retain employees, causing major disruptions to cash flow and reputational damage as an employer.

Challenging behaviour has a domino effect on the workplace. Typically, challenging behaviour begins due to a difficult workplace culture. It’s important not to point the finger here because sometimes the beahviour is actually a reflection of the company culture or the way the leadership team acts. Often, employees fall into bad habits at work. It’s unlikely that any one employee is behaving poorly on purpose. However, the ongoing impact must be prevented from reaching other employees.

HR has one of the most impactful roles in any company, when operating effectively. They manage the relationship between an employee and the business.

New hire sales trainings are how you introduce you new team members...

Employee onboarding processes need to take into account both what the new hire needs from you and what you need them to learn. Too often the focus is your offer: what you sell and what it does. But the best onboarding processes also teach about your culture, your customers, your regulatory regime, and they give the new hire the tools they need to succeed.

Businesses cannot succeed without a strong team behind them. Building an effective team requires more than just assembling a group of talented people. To be truly effective, the team must unite with the same vision and be motivated to bring that vision to life.

If you speak with anyone in the L&D (Learning and Development) space, they will tell you that engagement or lack thereof is critical in the success of any learning online initiative.

Onboarding is like a foundation. It gives your new hires the tools and knowledge they need to succeed in the company. Good onboarding actually starts before day one. Advanced access to tools and an overview of the training schedule is a good pre-employment training kit.

Using evidence-based approaches, data-led design and simple reporting for your LMS landing page optimisation will improve ROI and keep users engaged.
