Aligning Learning with Strategy

Aligning Learning with Strategy Outside of the management hierarchy itself, learning, communications, and knowledge management are the three main channels for changing people’s behavior, sharing knowledge, and improving performance within (and even outside) an organization.

Sonata Learning can provide advice on how to coordinate KM, Learning and Comms (a.k.a. “KLIC”) to develop the job skills, domain knowledge, and organizational culture required to achieve your strategic goals.

Inventorying Skills and Assessing Needs

After defining where your organization wants to go, the next step is to inventory people’s current skills, knowledge, and attitudes, then prioritize areas for upskilling, reskilling, knowledge sharing, and/or culture change.

Sonata Learning can help with this process by conducting a comprehensive skill inventory, and learning needs analysis, quickly and accurately, without requiring a massive amount of time from your in-house team.

Designing Learning Solutions

We will work with your team to develop “learning paths” for different audiences (or even personalized learning paths for individuals) encompassing a range of approaches, including:

Learning
Strategy

Interactive
E-Learning

Live Training
and Coaching

Mentoring
Programs

Performance
Support Resources

Knowledge
Transfer

Evaluating “Learning ROI”

Whether you measure success in profits earned or lives saved, it’s important to confirm that the time, money, and effort invested in learning is having the expected impact. Sonata Learning can help you rethink learning performance metrics, going beyond outdated approaches like “smile sheet” feedback surveys to measure real-world performance impact, cost savings, and culture change.

Planning for Future Needs

Your learning strategy needs to account not only for your immediate needs, but also the future. Sonata Learning can help you recognize trends in your field and prepare for tomorrow’s challenges, including:

Workforce Upskilling / Reskilling

AI Integration

Virtual Work

Global Cultural Competence

Data Literacy

Contingent (“Gig”) Workforce Integration
