The Evolution of Learning and Development
Exploring the future of Learning and Development by examining its roots.
What will you learn?
Learning and Development is undergoing a shift. The shelf-life of employee skills is shortening, and our methods to upskill them today aren’t fully meeting our needs. This gap is leading to new ways of thinking about L&D and, with it, new tactics and strategies.
What are these new tactics and strategies? In short, it’s person-to-person learning. The thinking goes that instead of only leveraging online courses, full-day seminars, and performance appraisals, we need ongoing, personalized growth through meaningful conversations with real people. What our L&D strategies need is more mentorship, peer coaching, and collaborative discussions.
To craft L&D strategies that are engaging for employees and drive better learning outcomes, we need to expand beyond a simple Learning Management System. We need to make more room for informal learning and work with how employees learn best — connecting them with the right resources at the right time."
