Dan, I completely agree. It is interesting that you mention mandating. In my experience it takes a certain mindset and culture to not want to 'mandate' everything. In an environment where there are hi... More

Great contribution. I do have a challenge however - if we are allocating a budget to informal and social learning aren't we in danger of 'managing' this type of learning? I am not suggesting that ... More

Not me because the higher you climb ... at times like these ... the lower you fall. Are there any examples of organisations where all staff earn the same/similar amount including the CEO? More

Great contribution! I agree - learning does not have to cost anything but relies on curators/architects to pull this together. I do not think however that this is solely the role of the L&D; Profession... More

If we hadn't re-invented the wheel we would still be relying on stone-carved cylinders (a la Flinstone's style). And we would be reliant fully on 'experts' instead of giving innovation a go for oursel... More

One reservation I have about the pilot work (sorry) is that much of the discussions so far are showing the interdependencies which all make the bigger 'system crash'. Can we really create pilots big e... More

Innovators, Early or Late Adopters

How to spot early or late adopter? Early and late adopters can only be convinced by evidence of something working elsewhere.

How to spot an innovator? Someone who is happy to experiment and take the risk of failing in order to find a better quality result.

A VERY PRACTICAL ONE - Dashboards vs Infographics

Dashboards are great tools for collating and making visible past data. The use of Infographics however can encourage more horizon-scanning activities and proactively help HR (and other services) prepare for that which is still to come.

With further economic uncertainty in the forthcoming years, where is it best to place...

Replace Appraisals with Career Coaching
