Speaker: Matthew Daniel
Matthew Daniel is a high-energy, no-holds-barred, tell-it-like-it-is learning technologist with nearly 15 years of consulting with some of the largest and most innovative companies across the country, including Capital One, Nike, Cigna Healthcare, Microsoft, and Allstate. While he’s implemented LMSs, LCMSs, Social Learning Platforms, and Curation Tools– his biggest success comes not in the implementation of the system, but in helping learning professionals figure out how to take their existing skills and experience and adapt to the digital age.
Matthew believes in building incredible learning experiences, not just events – that all begins with good instructional design, but it has to be wrapped in incredible user experience design. Prior to implementing learning systems, Matthew was an instructional designer who built large-scale new hire and upskill programs for organizations like Homeland Security, the DoD, Honeywell, Valero, and ExxonMobil.
Today, Matthew works with learning software companies on product design, consults on learning transformation, and inspires learning professionals to adopt new technologies, and create amazing experiences to transform the lives of our learners.

Here’s what you can expect to do as a result of this session:
