Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Training That Works, Rustin Schroeder talks with Shara Simms about how to design enablement that doesn’t just get completed… it proves impact. Shara takes us inside a three-day immersive manager workshop where 75 percent of the time was spent practicing real scenarios, not listening to slides. Every participant walked away with a customized blueprint they could use on the job the very next day.She also breaks down why most training fails… no single call to action, no connection to the learner’s role, and no lasting reinforcement. Instead, Shara explains how she builds ultra bite-sized content people can apply in the moment while still tying everything to a complete A to Z curriculum. Then she reveals the one investment she’d make with unlimited budget: clean data and integrated systems so enablement can finally show impact beyond adoption—straight through to conversion. Her final challenge is simple but hard… create true cross-functional alignment so enablement priorities are driven with the business, not at it.🎙️ Training That Works — where top performers share what actually works. 🔥 Email Magic™ turns average communicators into credible, respected voices. 👉 email-magic.com
