Very busy day. If you are visiting on Wednesday29 I suggest you use the West Hall entrance round the back. It less of a scrum and has a cloakroom for Coats etc.

The Beaconsfield Kensington Olympia is also close by for lunch if you want to go off site but nearby and want a 'nice pint'.







Plenty of fun and good humour to catch
and entertain the eye and draw one into the expo stands.
Mr Qube got top marks for working in restricted movement costume.
I hope he does not have to run the London Marathon!

 In his 'Rethinking the future' Alvin Toffler advocated

 “ The illiterate of the 21^st century will not be those who cannot read or write but those who cannot learn , unlearn and relearn”

Acquiring new selling skills knowledge or skill set is usually achieved through formal instruction whether through instructor led or e-learning.

For example

When learning selling skills for the first time, in induction and foundation level sales programmes

or

When wanting to learn more  those more experienced salespeople realise their need to refresh and update their selling skills in the VUCA world ( Volatile, Uncertain, complex and Ambiguous)

Performance support on the other hand is increasingly considered  through application and maintenance of the sales knowledge to date.

For example:

When sales learners are trying to remember or apply learning in skills in for example in long time lined projects and account management relationships encountered some while after a 'course' or infrequently used skills, e.g. Prospecting if that has had a lower priority, networking events or working an exhibition stand, Big scale pitch presentation to large audiences.

Performance support and maintenance  may also be called upon when things change e.g. Change in legislation, economic conditions, change of personnel in procurement relationships , take overs , mergers or acquisitions  in Procurement.

Similarly support may be  required when something goes wrong e.g. Complaints, delays, product failure or mismatched expectations.

One of the ways to unlearn, relearn and learn new stuff is to go to  The Learning and skills and learning Technologies show now in its fourteenth year at Olympia.

 It's  the opportunity to view technology supported workplace learning all in one place.

With more than 120 free seminars, over 230 exhibitors, the   London’s Olympia 2 exhibition centre showcases the latest learning technologies, innovation and best practise .
