Beyond the Webinar

Have you ever come across a webinar title and instantly known it’s exactly what you need? Webinars offer a unique opportunity to watch power users demonstrate how they maximize tools you might already use daily. They also share best practices and a wealth of accumulated knowledge to help you improve your workflow.

But what truly sets effective learners apart is what they do after the webinar concludes. Here’s how you can meaningfully act on your learnings:

  • Review and Research: Once the webinar is over, revisit your notes and dive deeper. Research concepts or techniques that piqued your interest but might feel unfamiliar. Don’t hesitate to reach out to the presenter with follow-up questions if something isn’t clear.
  • Share Knowledge: To ensure you’ve fully grasped the key takeaways, explain the most important points to your coworkers. If the replay is available, highlight specific timecodes to make the content more digestible for your team.
  • Put It into Practice: Identify one actionable takeaway from your notes, whether it’s trying a tool you’ve never explored before or tweaking a process in your workflow. Remember, you’re not obligated to implement everything. Even a small change can lead to new possibilities.
  • Experiment at Your Level: Not all improvements require immediate team-wide buy-in. Start with a simple change you can control and experiment on a personal level. You don’t need to be an expert—adopting just a fraction of what the presenter does can make a meaningful impact on your day-to-day work.

While large-scale process changes might require discussions with your teammates, individual actions can act as a testing ground. By gradually building on your insights, you can enrich your expertise and inspire collective improvement.

Attending a webinar is just the first step; the real value lies in how you integrate those learnings into your everyday work and even inspire your team. Start small, stay consistent, and before you know it, you’ll notice meaningful progress both in your personal skill set and your team’s efficiency.
