Learning And Development: Embed It In Your Culture

I was tired of hearing about 'fast-paced change' ten years ago. And now the pace is even faster. The World Economic Forum's 'Future of Jobs Report', estimates that by 2025, 85 million jobs may be displaced by a shift in the division of labor between humans and machines, while 97 million new roles may emerge. That's since 2020! That's next year!

My guest, Michelle Ellis, brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. With her background in from Disney, a PhD in training and performance improvement, and her current role at Intellum, a learning management software company, she shares approaches to building learning culture. We talked about:

📚 The definition of a learning culture and its importance in modern organizations. Note the pace of change.

📈 The benefits of fostering a learning culture, including increased innovation, retention and employee satisfaction. Many things promise this, but I think learning can deliver.

🎯 The role of a learning culture in upskilling and reskilling employees.

💼 The difference between talent management and talent planning. This was so interesting - see the video!

🧠 The importance of competency-based learning and the distinction between skills and competencies.

🔧 The role of technology in building a learning culture.

This episode offers valuable insights for HR professionals looking to cultivate a learning culture within their organizations. It's a case for those who aren't building a learning organization to reconsider. Hiring is expensive! It's time to equip your team with the skills and knowledge they need to thrive in a rapidly changing work environment.
