Zenger | Folkman

Development programs are great at encouraging behavior change. But what happens after the workshop is over and everyone goes back to work? At Zenger Folkman we know that follow-up is just as important as learning new concepts.

So how do you receive the full value you hope to achieve from training and development investments? Significant amounts of money are regularly spent delivering outstanding learning events, only to then have training leaders, participants and their managers quickly lose sight of how well new learnings are being applied when the event is over. Without appropriate follow-up and accountability systems in place, participant action plans, progress and achievement are easily forgotten and the expected results may not materialize.

ActionPlan Mapper (“AP/M”) is web-based software that improves learning transfer by tracking post-training event activities. It allows organizations to view and support development activities after the event when participants are back on the job. Managers can see:

• participants’ goals and action plans
• timelines and due dates for specific developmental activities
• progress being made by participants
• achievement of goals and desired learning outcomes

ActionPlan Mapper takes advantage of the latest Web technologies to deliver a simple, easy-to-use solution. This Web-based software is hosted on secure Zenger Folkman servers, so there is no software installation, no downloaded programs to install, and no internal IT support required. It is accessible anywhere and anytime, requiring only a web browser and an internet connection to work. Easy startup options mean organizations can be up and running AP/M across a department or across the world in less than a day.
