To fit our hybrid work environment, I created our first sales eLearning materials. Since this audience at Slalom notoriously disliked self-directed online learning, I had to make it stand out.
A sales colleague had once led a training called the Client Zone...and so the idea was born.

Having a conversation is essential for practicing and applying sales learning. When translating this to eLearning, building an engaging simulation is one way I help my learners exercise this skill. Instead of creating an experience that might feel corny or old-fashioned (e.g., using mentors), I decided to break reality to enforce a real feeling.
These forays into the Client Zone are just one part of the learning series. I created five standalone eLearnings focused on key aspects of our sales approach.
Even though I had a primary stakeholder, discovering the behavior change, relevant internal philosophies, existing resources were all challenging on this very abstract project.
To create a more clear sales learning ecosystem for our learners, I also defined and refined our partner sales learning.
I made an interactive video series, an onboarding eLearning, video podcasts about each partner, and a SharePoint resources.
