Challenge

Onboarding and security enablement programs required scalable, engaging content that could deliver focused learning objectives in formats suited to busy field professionals-traditional long-form courses were not aligned to real-world consumption patterns or retention needs.

Approach

Led the design and development of "Learning Bites," a series of short-form training videos (3-7 minutes) delivering high-impact concepts across onboarding and security enablement programs.

Content Design:

  • Collaborated cross-functionally to storyboard, script, and review content for Modern Work and Security segments covering product positioning, technical discovery frameworks, and customer conversation techniques.
  • Ensured narrative flow, visual consistency, and message clarity aligned with strategic learning goals across diverse topics.
  • Created scripts balancing technical accuracy with accessible language suitable for learners at varying expertise levels.

Production & Iteration:

  • Directed video production using Microsoft Clipchamp, optimizing for mobile consumption and attention retention.
  • Provided iterative feedback on drafts addressing pacing, visual clarity, audio quality, and on-screen text effectiveness.
  • Ensured accessibility compliance with closed captioning, audio descriptions, and keyboard-navigable controls.

Program Integration:

  • Integrated Learning Bites into broader onboarding journeys and just-in-time enablement resources hosted on Microsoft Stream.
  • Developed a distribution approach that surfaced videos through Viva Learning, Microsoft Teams channels, and targeted email campaigns.
  • Contributed to process retrospectives identifying workflow improvements and reusable templates for future video production cycles.

Outcomes & Evidence of Impact

  • Reached 11,000+ learners globally across onboarding, security, and Modern Work enablement programs.
  • Improved content consumption rates compared to longer-form courses, with short video format better matching field professional work patterns.
  • Established a reusable video production framework that reduced time-to-market for subsequent enablement video needs.
  • Enhanced learner engagement through visual storytelling and concise messaging, contributing to higher completion rates and satisfaction scores.
  • Informed continuous improvement of video enablement strategy through retrospective insights on production workflows and distribution effectiveness.
