Presentation: Future of Learning: How L&D Can Lead the Way
Future of Work is no longer in the Future... it is here. And the pace with which the workplace is changing is far more than what anyone estimated. The disruption that unfolded with pandemic – the pivot to Zoom, the digital divide among the audience, or the accelerating gig workers are all factors that many L&D organizations had not anticipated. Traditional methods of corporate learning cannot keep up with today's turbulent pace and breadth of change; in general, they are too rigid and fragmented, too unconnected from employees' daily work, and too inefficient and costly. There is an opportunity here for the L&D organizations to utilize technology and the changing landscape to increase relevance and make learning pervasive.
In this session, we will discuss these and other factors that are pacing this change in L&D and ways to accelerate the transformation to meet these changing needs.
