Now you can tune in on your time to watch experts discuss content curation, skill strategies, leadership, and more. Check it out and share away!

Whether you are onboard yet or not, research is clearly indicating that the skills gap is real. In a Korn Ferry survey of 1,500 leaders around the world, 66 percent said there will be a shortage of talent by 2020. Slightly more than half said there would likely still be a shortage by 2030, and it could cost firms nearly $8.5 trillion in lost revenue. Organizations are turning to internal upskilling and mobility strategies to address talent shortages. The problem with building an internal mobility strategy is that there is ample data pointing to people, process, technology, and culture challenges, but few solutions offered to overcome them.This webinar will dig in to both and provide tangible steps for you to build and execute an internal mobility strategy in your organization.

Enabling Internal Mobility to Curb Attrition

Many L&D teams say they put workers at the center of their learning strategies, but what does that actually look like? According to our latest study done with Harvard Business Publishing Corporate Learning, workers invest 3x more time developing skills on their own as they do through company-provided resources. They’re also 67% more likely to go to their professional network rather than their companies’ learning systems to build skills.

How the Workforce Learns

Curation as a foundational skill: Creating Personalized, Targeted Learning Experiences. This is the future of learning, with more personalization and learning from each other. This is about how to integrate personalization into your own learning ecosystem. As learning professionals, we need to be able to understand what good curation looks like and develop an approach to help our learners grow into lifelong learners.

We will help you understand the theory and practice behind good curation in a learning landscape where users expect personalization.

We will have an interactive training session and you will learn to:

•    Define curation - what it is, what it is not
•    Shift from building to curating
•    Upskill you and your team
•    The impact of curation on your organization

Curation as Foundational Skill: Creating Personalized, Targeted Learning Experie

It’s time to reboot the tech that drives people’s skills.
ATD data says nearly 52% of workers’ skill sets don’t match their companies’ markets, strategies, goals, or business models. That’s why two of every three talent development leaders are looking for new solutions to transform their people’s skills and their organizations.

But the marketplace has gotten noisy—very noisy. There are over 1,000 systems and tools out there, offering similar or even conflicting messaging and capabilities. 

This guide is meant to help you cut through the noise of the marketplace as you make decisions about your talent development technology investments, from initial research to communicating its value in business terms.

It is not a sales pitch. It’s an original analysis, featuring fresh insights from our work with some of the most progressive executives at some of the most innovative organizations in the world.

Buyer's Guide to Talent Development Technology

The shift from relying on L&D to self-directed learning has left many organizations wondering about the role of L&D in a worker-driven world. Does L&D curate learning? Design learning? Let learners control it all?

We think the best place to start is by understanding how your workforce learns so you can better enable their skill development.

Society has lost its grip on what matters most: the ability to think. Though the root cause is by no means malicious, we have begun to reward speed over quality, distractedness over focus, and the negative effects suffered in both our personal and professional lives are potentially catastrophic. TELUS Chief Envisioner and author, Dan Pontefract, has led an investigation into our everyday thinking and the results are not good. Due to several alarming factors including busyness, time mismanagement and technology addictions, employees and leaders alike are struggling to cope. 
 
What to do? Dan suggests the introduction of something he calls Open Thinking. We need a return to balance between three critical components of productive thought: dream, decide, do … and then repeat.
