Don't go into a new adventure blindly with a "if I build it they will come" mentality. Get an idea of that 'expensive problem' that you can fix for future potential customers and clients. From there, you can pivot, revise, or evolve your product the resonate a LOT better. Actually working on a product and validating your idea by talking to experts, getting feedback, and learning what might work can teach you a lot about success.

Patrick loves to kayak when he is not developing innovative technical strategies to integrate technology LMS platforms. Having led large-scale projects such as migrating 20,000 users from Pathlore to SumTotal, as well as numerous installation upgrades, Patrick has an intimate understanding of all that is required to implement a successful LMS. Highly-skilled in Lectora and Captivate course troubleshooting, course setup, UAT testing, reporting and all aspects of a major system migration, Patrick brings expertise, the latest know-how and passion to any development and implementation project.

We’ll be chatting about the process he took to go down the road to building an actual product. He has insight and experience from the “I’ll build it and hope they come” to the actual work he’s put in to validate the idea. Patrick has done the leg work to talk to experts, get feedback, and has learned a lot on his journey. We sit down to chat about the stumbles and successes Patrick has had along the way.

90% of all learning happens outside of the Learning Management System and in places like Sharepoint. Where the training has not been tracked!
