Three out of four business leaders I talk with confide that they don’t believe their current approach to training can prepare their workers to succeed in the future. (Last month in London, everyone attending my opening keynote at Learning Technologies agreed.)
In these volatile, accelerating times, the organization that fails to do a great job of helping its people keep up with the pace of change will not survive the decade.
Keeping Up with the Pace of Change
This article from Learning Executive Briefing lists more than fifty areas collaboration and web 2.0 can improve or fix. How many are issues at your organization?
New hires take too long to become productive
Analysis paralysis
“Wait and see” attitude equals missed opportunities
Culture clash, as if we are two organizations with different priorities
Can’t find the right person in a hurry
People don’t know who knows what
Can’t touch the right information when you need it
Project coordination is tedious and things fall through the cracks
Re-invention of the same documents and processes over and over
Not prepared for onslaught of digital natives
Learning systems are outgrowth of classroom
Training administration, creation, and delivery cost too much
Managers hoard information
