A focused discussion with our internal think tank brought out some interesting ideas and approaches to ensure employee learning and development. These were based on the principles of self directed learning, facilitation, social media based learning and neuroscience. More importantly, it helped us realize that unlike many training organizations that include a variety of training methods that are still delivered in a classroom, we were thrown a challenge – to step completely out of the classroom model while still ensuring the employees’ continuous learning.
Many organizations want to change for change’s sake. It could be an ‘In-Thing” or the “latest paradigm followed by 20% of their competition” or “the next best thing that could revolutionize the industry” They are all catch-phrases, nothing more. Without well-directed and well thought-ought change, the entire effort often proves pointless.
But when change is spurred by a desire to to help a client solve a tricky issue, you can be assured – this change is meant to stay!
