?? New Podcast Episode Alert!
In the latest episode of the Kirkpatrick Podcast, we dive deep into a conversation that every Learning & Development (L&D) professional needs to hear: how to build and strengthen your evaluation team.
Too often, evaluation is seen as a solo effort or a numbers game, but in reality, it requires collaboration, strategic thinking, and the right mix of skills. Whether you’re part of a large L&D team or managing evaluation as a department of one, defining roles, leveraging strengths, and streamlining the process is essential for success.
Key Takeaways from This Episode:
?? The Power of Teamwork in Evaluation – Learn why evaluation should never be a one-person job and how structuring a team can drive greater impact.
?? Defining Key Roles – From analysts to empathetic interviewers, we break down the essential roles needed for a high-functioning evaluation team.
?? Overcoming Common Barriers – Math anxiety, overcomplicated data collection, and lack of buy-in—discover how to tackle these challenges head-on.
?? What If You’re a Department of One? – Learn how to maximize your resources, use technology to your advantage, and find a community to support your efforts.
?? One key insight from this episode: A centralized evaluation approach not only ensures consistency across programs but also makes it easier to report meaningful insights to leadership. If your team is struggling with scattered evaluation efforts, it may be time to rethink your strategy!
