In this white paper, Diane Reinhold, Tracy Patterson, and Peter Hegel assert that there is no magic bullet to ensure people apply what they learn. There are, however, steps that can be taken to create leadership programs, experiences, and supports that improve the likelihood that lessons will be learned and applied. Over time, new skills, perspectives, or behaviors can be reinforced, until they become unconsciously and competently put to use. Learning is a process, and works best when it is viewed as more than merely a program. The authors present their "3 x 3 x 3 Model for Learning Transfer," a framework of leadership development that can be applied to development programs or initiatives within an organization.
