In today’s competitive business climate, companies must constantly improve their products, services, and human capital, or be replaced by smarter competitors. Learning and development programs have a crucial role to play in this effort … provided the knowledge they impart is transferred to the work of the organization. Enter the six Ds of breakthrough learning: 

  • Define Business Outcomes.

  • Design the Complete Experience.

  • Deliver for Application.

  • Drive Learning Transfer.

  • Deploy Performance Support.

  • Document Results. 

Larry Jacobs interviewed Roy Pollock and Andrew Jefferson_, authors of The Six Disciplines of Breakthrough Learning_ and facilitators of ATD’s Learning Transfer Certificate Program, for HR and Training Radio. They discussed how to apply the 6Ds—and turn training into business results.
