Learning Explorations

Sometimes an organization wants to change executive mindsets and reframe how they see the world. There’s no better approach for this than immersing them in new settings and situations, with people from outside their normal routine. These experiences — broadly called Learning Explorations — can be as straightforward as a guided tour (a form of industrial tourism) or as sophisticated as a multi-day learning journey. Monitor custom designs high-impact explorations with variations like those described here using our deep content expertise and broad networks. You, the client, decide the balance of structure and uncertainty that’s right for your organization.

A VIRTUAL FIELD TRIP recreates the experience of visiting another organization, without the need to travel. We have used hands-on product experiences, special guests and thought leaders, and multi-media to deliver a close-up look at a role-model organization.

A GUIDED TOUR takes your executives to visit a target organization chosen to exemplify a best practice or extraordinary performance. With the guidance of one or more Monitor thought leaders, the participants see “behind the curtains” and make connections to their own challenges.

Monitor LEARNING JOURNEYS give executives an expertly designed and sequenced set of site visits and visceral experiences, themed on a strategic challenge in your business. Using the proven approach and logistical savvy of the Global Business Network, Learning Journeys are fast-moving and intense. Participants often describe them as one of the most powerful learning experiences of their careers.
