If you manage an L&D team, you will have to work with a range of people and roles, depending on how your organization is structured. Here are some tips for making this go smoothly.
Conduct joint planning sessions where people in all roles collaborate from the project's outset. This ensures alignment on learning objectives, content structure, and media requirements. By working together early, you can avoid later discrepancies and ensure that instructional content and media elements complement each other seamlessly.
Create a centralized repository or platform (e.g., SharePoint, Google Drive) where everyone can collaborate and access project assets. This ensures version control, easy sharing of drafts, and streamlined communication. Having a shared repository enhances efficiency and reduces the risk of miscommunication or lost files.
Schedule regular cross-functional reviews where various people on the project present their work-in-progress to each other. This allows for early identification of potential issues, ensures alignment with project goals, and promotes a holistic view of the project's progress. These reviews encourage constructive feedback and foster a sense of shared responsibility for the project's success.
