171 Meeting Learners Where They Are with Tim Tobin, VP, Choice Hotels
Our guest today is Tim Tobin, Vice President of Franchisee Onboarding and Learning at Choice Hotels International. He’s also the Dean of Choice University. He will talk to us about how learning processes have changed over time.
Tim and Choice Hotels are well aware of the unique differential between learners. So, they have built a comprehensive approach in Choice University. The approach is to meet each learner where they are. He found the biggest challenges are time and where to start. Their system incorporates those challenges and the solution is learning maps. This gives people the opportunity to be given the first step to take and allows them to study what they don’t’ know and not have to spend the time with what they already know.
Tim has learned about humility and that asking questions is a sign of wisdom, not weakness. A great lesson for everyone.
