Behaviour Change or Learning Outcomes - Creator Guide

This is a comprehensive style selection guide that helps creators choose the most effective landing page style and substyle for their kōrero based on their audience, purpose (internal training, community education, or revenue generation), and content type.

What is This?

The Behaviour Change or Learning Outcomes section appears on the landing page for your resource. It tells potential learners what they'll be able to do differently or better after engaging with your kōrero. This is often the key piece of information that helps someone decide whether this resource is right for them.

How it Works

Kaha Create generates a draft description based on your kōrero, but you have full control to edit, refine, or completely rewrite it to match your kaupapa and the needs of your learners.

Choosing the Right Landing Page Style

How to Choose

Your landing page is often the first thing potential learners see - it needs to speak directly to them and clearly communicate the value of your kōrero. The right style depends on three key factors:

  1. Your audience and their context

  2. Your purpose (internal training, community education, or revenue generation)

  3. The type of content you've created


Start with Your Purpose

Internal Team Training

Best styles:

  • Workplace Guide > Knowledge Drop - Quick, practical updates for time-poor teams

  • Workplace Guide > What's Covered - Comprehensive reference materials

  • Workplace Guide > Inside Story - Sharing project learnings authentically

Why these work: Your team already knows you and trusts the organisation. They need clarity about what's covered and why it's relevant to their work, not persuasive sales language.


Community Education & Knowledge Sharing

Best styles:

  • Concepts Covered > Community Impact - Knowledge that strengthens collectives

  • Concepts Covered > Story or Narrative - Building emotional connection and engagement

  • Workplace Guide > Conversation Starter - Exploring complex topics together

Why these work: Community learning is about collective growth and shared understanding. These styles use inclusive language and frame knowledge as something that benefits everyone, not just individuals.


Revenue Generation & Public Offerings

Best styles:

  • Sales Landing Page > Before & After - Clear transformation story

  • Sales Landing Page > Problem to Solution - Addressing urgent pain points

  • Learning Outcomes > Skills and Competencies - Demonstrating tangible value

Why these work: When people are paying for content, they need to clearly understand the return on investment. These styles articulate specific outcomes and benefits that justify the cost.

Quick Decision Guide

Ask yourself these questions:

  1. Are people paying for this content?

    • Yes → Consider Sales Landing Page styles

    • No (internal/community) → Consider Workplace Guide or Concepts Covered styles

  2. Is this teaching specific skills or competencies?

    • Yes → Consider Learning Outcomes styles

    • No → Consider other frameworks

  3. Does this involve transformation or significant change?

    • Yes → Before & After, Behavioural Change, or Inside Story

    • No → Knowledge Drop, What's Covered, or Skills and Competencies

  4. Is the content emotionally resonant or story-based?

    • Yes → Story or Narrative, Inside Story, or Conversation Starter

    • No → More direct styles like What's Covered or Knowledge Drop

  5. Do you need to build trust and credibility?

    • Yes → Academic or Education, Professional Competency, or Inside Story

    • No → Simpler styles work fine

Still Not Sure?

Safe Default Choices

If you're uncertain, these styles work well across most contexts:

  • Workplace Guide > Knowledge Drop - Clear, practical, respectful of time

  • Concepts Covered > Story or Narrative - Engaging and accessible

  • Learning Outcomes > Skills and Competencies - Demonstrates clear value

Experiment and Iterate

You can always change your landing page style after publishing. If you notice:

  • Low engagement → Try a more engaging style (Story or Narrative, Before & After)

  • Confusion about content → Try a clearer style (What's Covered, Knowledge Drop)

  • Low conversion → Try a more persuasive style (Sales Landing Page options)


Style: Team Guide

Substyle: Knowledge Drop

When to use:

  • Quick, focused shares of practical information

  • Screen recordings or process walkthroughs

  • Time-sensitive updates or insights

  • Internal team resources where everyone is time-poor

  • Content that solves a specific, immediate problem

What makes it effective: This style respects your learners' time by getting straight to the point. It positions you as a colleague sharing useful knowledge rather than delivering a formal presentation. The emphasis is on immediate practical value - what can someone do or understand differently right now? Perfect for busy teams who need to quickly scan and decide if this is relevant to their current work.

Best for: Internal training, process updates, quick tips, technical walkthroughs

Substyle: Conversation Starter (Kōrero Starter)

When to use:

  • Exploring complex or evolving topics

  • Inviting dialogue and different perspectives

  • Addressing organisational challenges or opportunities

  • Content where there isn't one "right answer"

  • Building shared understanding across teams

What makes it effective: This style frames your resource as an invitation to join important thinking, not a top-down instruction. It uses warm, inclusive language (we, us, our) and positions you as a peer exploring questions together. The tone is curious and collaborative, acknowledging that this is part of an ongoing conversation. This works particularly well when you want to encourage reflection and discussion rather than simply transferring information.

Best for: Leadership reflections, strategic thinking, cultural discussions, change initiatives

Substyle: Inside Story

When to use:

  • Sharing lessons learned from projects or initiatives

  • Behind-the-scenes look at how work actually unfolded

  • When challenges, surprises, or pivots are part of the story

  • Real-world case studies from your own organisation

  • Building organisational memory and shared learning

What makes it effective: This style emphasises authenticity and real experience over polished success stories. It's honest about what worked, what didn't, and what surprised you along the way. Learners connect with the humanity of the journey - the struggles, discoveries, and unexpected moments. This creates trust and makes insights more memorable and applicable because they're grounded in real work, not theory.

Best for: Project debriefs, implementation stories, transformation journeys, lessons learned

Substyle: What's Covered

When to use:

  • Comprehensive guides or reference materials

  • Resources people will return to multiple times

  • Structured training on processes or systems

  • Content that needs to serve as ongoing documentation

  • When clarity and completeness matter more than engagement

What makes it effective: This style builds confidence through transparency and thoroughness. It clearly outlines what's included and what's not, helping learners quickly assess if this resource meets their needs. The straightforward, professional tone positions the resource as a reliable working tool they can bookmark and reference. No marketing language - just honest, complete information about what they'll find.

Best for: Process documentation, compliance training, system guides, comprehensive team resources


Style: Concepts Covered

Overview

The "Concepts Covered" styles focus on clearly articulating what knowledge, frameworks, or competencies learners will gain. These styles are most effective when the educational content itself is the primary value proposition.

Substyle: Community Impact

When to use:

  • Content that benefits communities, whānau, or collectives

  • Resources addressing shared challenges or opportunities

  • Knowledge that strengthens collaboration or trust

  • Content for community organisations, iwi, or social enterprises

  • When learning has ripple effects beyond the individual

What makes it effective: This style uses inclusive "we" language to position learning as a collective endeavour. It acknowledges shared challenges and frames knowledge as something that strengthens the whole community, not just individuals. The emphasis is on how mastering these concepts contributes to collective wellbeing, sustainable outcomes, or improved collaboration. This creates a sense of shared purpose and responsibility, making the learning feel meaningful beyond personal development.

Best for: Community education, iwi training, social sector resources, collaborative initiatives, collective capability building

Substyle: Story or Narrative

When to use:

  • Content that benefits from emotional connection

  • Resources teaching "soft" skills or interpersonal competencies

  • When you want learners to see themselves in the content

  • Complex concepts that need grounding in real scenarios

  • Building engagement with learners who may be hesitant

What makes it effective: This style draws learners in through relatable scenarios and narrative journey language ("You know that moment when..."). It positions you as a wise friend rather than a lecturer, making the content feel accessible and personally relevant. Learning outcomes are woven into a discovery story that helps learners visualise themselves applying the knowledge. This approach works particularly well for content that requires behaviour change or mindset shifts, as the narrative creates emotional investment in the learning.

Best for: Leadership development, communication skills, cultural competency, personal growth, behaviour change initiatives

Substyle: Academic or Education

When to use:

  • Formal educational content or training

  • Resources covering established theories, models, or frameworks

  • Content for students, educators, or researchers

  • When academic credibility is important

  • Structured learning that builds systematically on concepts

What makes it effective: This style establishes authority through scholarly language and systematic presentation of concepts. It clearly identifies specific theories, models, and frameworks covered, positioning the content within its broader academic or professional discipline. The tone conveys rigor and credibility while remaining accessible. Learning is framed as a systematic exploration using evidence-based language, which builds confidence that the content is thoroughly researched and professionally validated.

Best for: University courses, professional certifications, research-based training, formal education programmes, theoretical foundations

Substyle: Professional Competency

When to use:

  • Workplace skills development

  • Technical training or software instruction

  • Career advancement resources

  • Content with measurable performance outcomes

  • Professional development for specific roles or industries

What makes it effective: This style emphasises practical application and return on investment. It uses performance-based, action-oriented language (implement, execute, deliver, manage) that demonstrates immediate workplace value. The focus is on specific, tangible skills and competencies that lead to measurable results. This approach speaks directly to professionals who need to justify their time investment and see clear career or performance benefits. It frames learning as a strategic investment in professional capability.

Best for: Corporate training, technical skills, management development, industry-specific competencies, career advancement


Style: Learning Outcomes

The "Learning Outcomes" styles are explicitly educational, focusing on what learners will be able to do, know, or apply after completing the resource. These styles work best when clear capability building is the primary value proposition.

Substyle: Behavioural Change

When to use:

  • Content focused on changing habits, practices, or approaches

  • Resources teaching new ways of working or interacting

  • Leadership or management development

  • Health, wellbeing, or lifestyle content

  • When the goal is action and implementation, not just understanding

What makes it effective: This style centres entirely on practical, observable outcomes - what learners will actually do differently after engaging with the content. It uses action-oriented language ("Learn how to...", "Discover ways to...") and focuses on immediately applicable practices. The emphasis is on behavioural adoption rather than theoretical knowledge, making it clear that this learning leads to tangible change. This creates accountability and helps learners envision themselves implementing new practices in their real context.

Best for: Leadership training, health and safety, communication skills, change management, habit formation, workplace practices

Substyle: Knowledge Application and Assessment

When to use:

  • Content teaching frameworks, models, or systems

  • Resources that require understanding before application

  • Compliance or regulatory training

  • When learners need to assess situations or make informed decisions

  • Professional judgement development

What makes it effective: This style emphasises what learners will be able to do with the knowledge they gain - how they'll apply understanding in real situations and assess scenarios using their new expertise. It goes beyond "you'll learn X" to "you'll be able to evaluate Y using X." This positions knowledge as a practical tool for workplace decision-making rather than abstract information. The focus on application and assessment makes the learning feel immediately relevant and professionally valuable.

Best for: Professional judgement training, compliance education, diagnostic skills, risk assessment, evaluation frameworks, decision-making tools

Substyle: Skills and Competencies

When to use:

  • Technical skills training

  • Software or tool instruction

  • Capability building in specific domains

  • Career development resources

  • When concrete, measurable skills are the outcome

What makes it effective: This style clearly articulates tangible skills learners will build and demonstrates their practical workplace applications. It uses concrete, specific language about capabilities rather than abstract benefits. By focusing on skill development with real-world application, it helps learners understand exactly what they'll be able to do and how it connects to their work. This clarity builds confidence that the time investment will yield measurable professional capability.

Best for: Technical training, software instruction, project management, digital skills, analytical capabilities, sector-specific competencies


Style: Sales Landing Page

Substyle: Before & After

When to use:

  • Content that creates transformation or significant change

  • Resources solving painful, relatable problems

  • When you can clearly articulate current struggles and desired outcomes

  • Career development or business growth content

  • Any resource where the "before" state is frustrating and the "after" is compelling

What makes it effective: This style harnesses the psychological power of contrast. It paints a vivid picture of current pain ("Right now you're...") then creates desire by showing the transformed future state ("Imagine instead..."). By making both states tangible and specific, it helps prospects feel the gap between where they are and where they want to be - positioning your resource as the bridge. The emotional resonance of this framework drives motivation to act. The key is authenticity: the struggles must be genuinely relatable and the outcomes realistically achievable.

Best for: Transformation-focused content, productivity solutions, skills that dramatically improve outcomes, career advancement, business growth

Attention & Action (AIDA+)

When to use:

  • Competitive markets where you need to stand out

  • Content targeting specific professional or demographic segments

  • When you have strong social proof or credibility markers

  • Resources with clear, measurable benefits

  • Time-sensitive opportunities or limited availability

What makes it effective: This style follows the proven AIDA framework (Attention, Interest, Desire, Action) to systematically move prospects toward conversion. It opens with attention-grabbing techniques like pattern interrupts or contrarian statements, then builds interest through specific benefits, creates desire using social proof and authority markers, and drives action with friction-reducing CTAs. The framework addresses objections proactively and creates appropriate urgency without manipulation. It's highly structured to maximise conversion while feeling natural and persuasive.

Best for: Professional development, competitive offerings, launches with limited spots, content with strong testimonials, premium pricing

Problem to Solution

When to use:

  • Content solving urgent, painful problems

  • Resources targeting audiences with clear pain points

  • When the problem is more compelling than the features

  • Situations where inaction has serious consequences

  • Markets where prospects are actively seeking solutions

What makes it effective: This style leads with empathy for a specific problem, making prospects feel understood immediately. It escalates the consequences of inaction (without fear-mongering), creating motivation to change. Then it transitions to hope by presenting your resource as the solution, backed by proof points that build credibility. By focusing relentlessly on the problem-solution fit rather than features, it connects emotionally while demonstrating practical value. The framework works because people are often more motivated to avoid pain than to pursue pleasure.

Best for: Urgent problems, compliance challenges, costly inefficiencies, high-stakes decisions, expertise-based solutions
