It takes time and energy to develop courses, and much of the time the information is already obsolete.

Let us show you how to learn and teach others in the moment.

Image ID:192861515To learn and teach

others in the moment, we are talking about “Show Your Work” or “Working Out Loud.”

Everyday, we are solving problems, we need answers now, and we can’t wait for a class to be developed.

First of all, people like to share; this is something we learned in kindergarten.

People in our organizations have knowledge, skills, and expertise; they should help to train others by sharing.

Learners figured out they do not need an 8-hour class to learn.

The benefits of showing your work apply to your organization and to you personally.

You can capture information before people leave the organization. Email is where information goes to die.

By showing your work, you increase transparency, innovation, and communication.

By showing your work, you work in the moment; thus organizations are more flexible and agile to change.

Showing your work, organizations can become more efficient; problem-solving needs are addressed immediately.

Here are some ways you can benefit personally.

Free social media tools enable you to seek, make sense,

and share information.

Google+, Twitter, RSS feeds provide a steady stream of new information.

Professional reading, whether journal articles, books, or trade publications, is a great way to stay current.

Blogging is a powerful way of sharing on a regular basis.

Curating with tools like Pinterest is a great way to develop collections on different topics.

People share what they know because they want to give back, interact with others, or maintaining a professional community.

Naturally, when showing your

work, there are some best or

better practices to follow.

Andrew McAfee from a Harvard Business Review article suggests what you should post to show your work.

You should regularly post about what you are working on, what you completed, how you did it, how you learned it, and lessons learned.

Share links to the work of others, naturally, add something of value by explaining why it is important.

Comment on the posts others provide. Help solve their problems or help them think through issues.

Showing your work is not only about pushing out information, it is about the conversation.

Support others by providing positive feedback such as +1’s, likes, shares, retweets, etc.

Andrew McAfee from a Harvard Business Review article suggests what you should not post to show your work.

Don’t just talk about yourself, and don’t talk about trivial things. Work to add value.

Take time to support your comments by doing your homework.

Sex, politics, and religion should be off the table in a work environment; they are typically divisive topics.

Don’t gossip about or attack others. You should be a positive force in the world not someone others avoid.

Learning and Development leaders can take a number of steps to help others show their work.
