As organizations look to the future and consider their approach to the return to the office, redefining the use of space, adopting hybrid models of work, and all the underlying strategies that will support all of these issues – it is clear, the pace of change is not going to let up – and it is paramount for the success and longevity of the organization to get these decisions right – or else their employees will be voting with their feet.
What is the power of an idea? Ideas have the power to transform the world – they can make the way we work better. An idea can change the way in which we build our learning content, change the way we recruit new talent or change the way we invest in our employees and their development.
Hey – when is the last time you were able to take a minute, stop, and catch your breath. It has probably been a minute. The past year and half have been a whirl wind of activity. Deploying new technologies, shifting programs from classroom to virtual, developing new programs – let’s face it we have all been running a marathon – but at sprint speed. So, take a breath. Take a pause. Take stock.

There are many Low-Code/No-Code programs that are available to use, so you may be wondering which are the best and why.

Low-Code is a project that still requires some knowledge of coding, they give you code that has already been written and helps you complete the task at hand quicker and easier.

As we enter the dog days of summer, our thoughts undoubtedly turn to the 4th quarter, while simultaneously thinking about planning for the upcoming year and reflecting on the past year. Reporting on the impacts of the investments in learning you made in the current year – and asking for new investments in the upcoming year. It can all be a bit nerve wracking. In a recent HBR article “Make Sure Your Company’s Reskilling Efforts Pay Off”, the author shared four measures of success that we believe apply to reskilling – or any learning project.
As learning professionals, we are constantly asked to demonstrate the value of what we do.

This week Josh Bersin put out his latest blog, where it is proclaimed there is a new category of platforms – a Creator Platform. He immediately leaned into TikTok and similar platforms such as Snapchat, Spotify, and Patreon as not just development tools – but platforms – and shared his perspective both on the need for a creator platform for corporate learning – and shared some examples of platforms he felt met the mark.
Before we all go crazy trying to build a creator platform of our own, we thought it would be helpful to break this down further.
