Description:
According to the Training Industry Magazine, “a learning ecosystem is the collection of people, processes and tools that deliver, integrate and support the L&D function across your organization. Every organization has a learning ecosystem, just like every business has a culture, whether it was formed intentionally or not.”
With the increasing ramifications of the ecosystem to domains like LXP (learning experience), broad range of authoring tools, simulations, augmented and virtual reality, it is becoming harder and harder for Talent and L&D professionals to make sense of the landscape, and most importantly, remain strategic and deliver value to the business.
Mike Pino, Partner with PwC, and former Chief Learning Officer for Cognizant Digital Business argues that learning is not necessarily what the business values and needs. Rather, that the business values performance, and that learning should be a measurable performance enabler. He also stresses that in order to deliver value to the business, HR, Learning and Talent Development professionals need to shift their mindset from managing learning to managing performance through learning.
Join us on August 19th for a thought-provoking conversation with Mike about how the changes in learning, development and in work itself are breaking paradigms, creating new possibilities, and what they will require of all of us.
