Leadership Learning Corner: Develop Others<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se9wtmtW12g>

Avoid the lure of being the smartest person in the room. Some of the most effective leaders are not the geniuses in the room, they are the genius-makers. They realize they don't have all the answers and they focus on drawing talent out of the people they lead. Want to learn more? Enroll in Franklin Covey’s Multipliers.

FAQ<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/faq#why-am-i-being-prompted-to-res>: Why am I being prompted to Restart a course?

An important reminder for systemwide compliance

Go ahead and select Restart! This is expected behavior and is simply a warning. It will not cause any problems with your training records or prevent you from completing the activity.

If you have previously completed an online activity, when restarting it, the system will remind you and ask you to confirm you want to restart the activity. When restarting/retaking an activity, the system will add a new attempt in addition to any previous completions to your records.

NOTE: The University of California regularly requires employees and certain contingent workers to retake certain systemwide compliance courses, such as the annual cyber security training. Retraining requirements may be based on UC policies as well as state or federal laws.

[Example of system Restart warning message.]

NEW! Team Compliance Dashboards for Managers & Learning Coordinators

For UC Learning Center users in a manager<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/access-roles#manager> or learning coordinator<https://ucrlearning.ucr.edu/access-roles#learning-coordinator>* role, you now have access to the new Team Compliance Dashboards. Once logged into the UC Learning Center, go to the Self > Dashboards > Team Compliance Dashboard menu (shown below) and then select from the following reports:

·    Systemwide Required Training – Percentage by Status Crosstab

·    Systemwide Required Training – Percentage by Status Bar Chart

·    Systemwide Required Training – Nearing Due or Expiration Date

·    Systemwide Required Training – Overdue or Expired

·    All Required Training – Nearing Due or Expiration Date

·    All Required Training – Overdue or Expired

The crosstab and bar chart reports offer a quick visualization of your team or organization’s compliance metrics with assigned systemwide training. The nearing due or expiration date and overdue or expired reports will provide a detailed list of your direct reports or viewable users who are due to complete or retake assigned trainings – choose from either strictly the systemwide training report or all required training reports.

NOTE:

·    Data is refreshed nightly at ~4-5am. Training completions from the current day will display tomorrow.

·    At this time, reports in this dashboard can only be exported in a printable format. Click the printer icon to open the report in a new window where you can print it or save as PDF based on your browser settings.

·    *Similar to the Manager Dashboard, by default, only data for direct reports will be displayed. To include all the viewable users you have access to, click the cog icon [Screenshot from the UC Learning Center showing the Self menu navigation to the Team Compliance Dashboards.]  and under the Direct Report (of logged in user) filter select both the True and False options.

Reduce Employee Fatigue by Promoting Psychological Safety

Over the last five years, persistent enterprise-wide disruptions have led to a sharp spike in employee fatigue. Rather than respond reactively, HR leaders must promote a culture of psychological safety that proactively builds sustainable employee engagement, performance and change resilience.
