Enhancing Organisational Capability Through Learning & Development
Details
As the pace of change continues to increase, learning plays, or should play, a vital role in ensuring organisational success. Yet although fashions in learning support may come and go, one thing remains constant: organisations generally do a poor job of helping their people learn. Organisations also face a similar problem in helping people transform what they do learn into improvements within their job. Is it any wonder therefore if learning budgets remain under threat?
You may consider it to be yet another fashion, but some organisations believe the solution is now in sight. Understanding of the brain and how individuals and groups learn and work are leading to wider deployment of new approaches, often supported by new technologies too. Organisations using these approaches are reporting significantly improved results in their peoples’ learning and in organisational performance too.
