What positive outcomes?

Examples of positive outcomes can range greatly depending on the individual situations. For example, the organisations might decide to use an e-Learning solution to meet the requirements of the Health and Safety executive. To satisfy an Improvement Notice it might be necessary to update the whole workforce within a limited period of time.

Another example might be the introduction of a new appraisal process. The managers need to be given the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the paperwork. E-Learning could provide a virtual solution for this.

As a leader you should be looking to find e-Learning solutions for problems within the organisation. Actively promoting the benefits of e-Learning includes highlighting such aspects as the ability to cover a large geographical area or multi site organisation. An alternative benefit might include reaching a large number of staff within a limited time.

You need to have a process in place to provide leaders with regular updates of positive outcomes. This will help to ensure that opportunities are not missed.
