What this lesson covers

  1. 01

    Activities that rehearse the job

    Step 3 of action mapping is not gamification. It is rehearsal of the high-priority actions you already identified. A branching conversation, a flawed case file, or a live sandbox beats a definition slide because the learner practices the decision they will make at work.

  2. 02

    70-20-10 is not a reason to skip practice

    The 70-20-10 mix (experience / others / formal) comes from interviews with executives in the Career Architect work associated with McCall, Lombardo, and Eichinger at CCL. It is a heuristic, not a law of learning. It does not mean “only 10% of budget should be courses,” and it does not replace designed practice for high-risk actions.
