Maverick Institute's Todd Hudson to Speak at WebVisions Conference in Portland, Oregon, May 21

Corporate Learning Expert Will Offer Tools on How to Develop Web 2.0 to Take Advantage of How People Naturally Learn

Portland, Oregon (Vocus/PRWEB ) May 19, 2009 -- E-learning can be a powerful replacement for classrooms, but too many designers simply transfer the inefficiencies of classroom training onto the electronic screen, says Todd Hudson, head maverick at the Maverick Institute. Hudson will share his ideas for how Web 2.0 designers can do better at WebVisions in Portland, Oregon, this Thursday, May 21.

In his conference session, "Design for Effective Knowledge Transfer: Don't Repeat the Same Ol' Same Ol'," Hudson will clue attendees in on what's coming in the future of knowledge transfer: high-impact one-on-one learning techniques, viral teaching, micro-learning. He will talk about how people naturally learn and offer techniques that e-learning and other Web 2.0 designers can immediately incorporate into any digital environment where knowledge sharing is a priority.

Todd will share ways to incorporate the three phases of efficient and effective knowledge transfer:

 
  • Building the learner's receptivity.
  • Presenting content in ways that humans naturally learn and retain.
  • Creating and evaluating mastery in the learner.
Hudson is a corporate learning expert and head maverick at the Maverick Institute, a Boulder, CO-based think tank for innovative knowledge transfer.

Using LEAN principles and innovative technologies, Hudson and his posse of Mavericks help organizations 'retool' inefficient training. The Maverick Institute works with companies of all industries and sizes, from copper mines to aerospace to pharmaceuticals. Todd's witty delivery and no-holds-barred opinions have made him a nationally sought-after keynote speaker with recent appearances at the Association for Corporate Growth, Boulder Marketing Group, and Chambers of Commerce across the United States. His commentary has appeared in the New York Times, the Portland, Denver and San Jose Business Journals, and the Boulder County Business Report.
