For twenty years, The Learning Guild has helped shape the conversation for learning professionals. Learning Guild CEO David Kelly shares his perspective on the evolution of the training industry, the role of new technologies, and emerging opportunities for industry leaders.
Show Notes:
David explores the shifting dynamics of how organizations approach learning and development. Here are some of his key takeaways.
- Training in the Flow of Work: David reminds us that the most disruptive way to train someone is to take them off the job and have them attend training. When possible, providing learning and support resources in the flow of their work is a better solution.
- Providing Training ROI: He suggests that we focus on how learning initiatives impact the business metrics that matter most to the organization to demonstrate value.
- Data-Informed Learning Strategy: David advises that we capture and use data that aligns with the metrics already valued by the organization. Instead of being overwhelmed by the vast possibilities of data, he suggests understanding what data the organization is paying attention to and connecting learning efforts to those metrics.
- Evolution of Workflow Learning: David emphasizes that technology, particularly platforms supporting workflow learning, has caught up with the promise, creating exciting opportunities for learning and development professionals to enhance performance and problem-solving.
- Generative AI and the Future: He acknowledges the potential of generative AI in accelerating the adoption and application of workflow learning. While optimistic about AI’s use, he also emphasizes the need for careful consideration in how these technologies are used and understanding their impact on the field of learning and development.
