When & Where?
This presentation is scheduled during Best Practice Session 3 at the 2023 Global TapRooT® Summit, Margaritaville Lake Resort, Lake Conroe – Houston, Texas, April 26 – 28, 2023, (PreSummit Courses, April 24 – 25, 2023).
Session Description
Many organizations are experimenting with using learning teams to gain a greater understanding of organizational challenges before an incident happens. However, many have complained about the mixed results. The learning seems to be entirely dependent on the experience of the facilitator. In this session, we will give practical ways to improve your learning team’s results and get beyond reliance on the facilitator.
