As the last episode of 2021, we pause for reflection, summarise some of the learning from 26 episodes so far and look forward to next year.
The first episode of 2022 will be released on 11th January.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Digital is about working with those to overcome challenges not about the next shiny object.
L&D needs to take a more rigorous approach to analysis. Results can be and should to be measurable.
L&D teams that produce real measurable results grow. The rest shrink.
The product manager approach has exponentially increased the speed at which teams achieve results.
Having an outcomes conversation rather than talking about learning, gets decision makers onboard fast.
The last two years have drastically changed L&D and the way we share and maintain the culture.
BEST MOMENTS
'Many in L&D conflate digital soloutions with system implimentations,'
'The product manager approach helps to alliviate any doubt over the value of L&D.'
'L&D teams should not wait to align the planets before they can adapt or modernise their approach.'
'I think product management will be the dominant skill in L&D. It will facilitate collaboration towards demonstratable results.'
