As technologies become more interconnected and innovation more fast-paced, the obsolescence rate within the skills layer of our economy is also increasing. Gaps are emerging, creating a challenge for education systems and organizations alike, in how to upskill and train more quickly. The future of work is transforming the world - how do organizations prepare for that from a learning and readiness perspective? Earning, learning, and enablement pathways are now more than ever, inextricably linked.

On today’s podcast episode, the Ecosystemic Futures podcast co-hosts Ed Powell and James Villarrubia sit down with Andrew Powell, Cofounder and CEO at Learn to Win, to answer this question and many more, as we dive into the future of education, exploring how to make it more equitable, accessible, scalable and effective.

Show Highlights:

“Personalization is not the goal, optimization of personalization is the goal.” -Andrew Powell

“It's not just about how effective the learning experience is, but if you maximize the effectiveness of the learning experience, is it leading to real world outcomes that matter, like succeeding on the job or hitting your sales quota?” -Andrew Powell

“Let's shift our thinking about education and learning from focused on the inputs and focused on the process to instead start with the outcome that matters and then work backwards from that.” -Andrew Powell
