Where learning meets business: Talent, Technology, Change
Laura Overton, Managing Director, Towards Maturity
Talent, technology and change are buzzwords that are bringing the learning and business agendas together. Why? Because the nature of work is changing rapidly and jobs are changing faster than ever before. Skills shortages and talent development are a business priority.
The results of this year's Towards Maturity Benchmark provide evidence of this change. The detailed experiences of 540 participants and over 2000 learners this year show the significant impact technology enabled learning is having in the workplace.
But the research tells us more. It provides evidence of an emerging learning agenda that brings business and learning closer together. Join Laura Overton for the exclusive launch of this year’s research in which you will find out:
- The bottom line potential that L&D can offer to business
- How to build rapport with business leaders
- The authentic learner voice and what it means to your strategy
- Distilled wisdom from the top performers
- A New Learning Agenda to take you into 2014
