Recommendation

Practices and products that once put your organization at the top of your industry might now provide for only its basic survival. Global and virtual competition, rapid innovation and relentless change mean leaders and employees need to learn constantly. Learning requires curated access to information and knowledge about emerging practices, new technologies, and political, economic and environmental happenings around the globe. Goldman Sachs Chief Learning Officer Jason Wingard explains that companies need experts to collect, process, analyze and disseminate information through training, events, social media and “learning portals.” Though his arguments slide in spots of muddled writing, getAbstract recommends Wingard’s valuable eye-opener on learning to executives, CLOs, managers, start-ups, entrepreneurs and business students.

Take-Aways

  • The market and the economy have changed dramatically.
  • Innovation, communications technology, and global trading and competition shift business priorities to talent and knowledge.
  • Organizations can survive with great products and a market niche; to thrive, they must develop a “culture of learning.”

    The CILS approach sounds like utopia. Which organisations have adopted his approach successfully? I’d be keen to learn from others who have managed to have this level of strategic impact in an organisation at C-Suite level.
