I received a question this week related to Discussion Forums for Knowledge Sharing at Capital City Bank : I successfully launched a discussion forum for a small group of lending assistants within my bank. They were also concerned about the accuracy of the information that was published on the forum. That forum is still up and running.

“Empowering individuals to learn through discovery how to lead from their strengths is a major fulcrum for my work,” says Cross, who has written extensively on the subject of self-directed and informal learning and its increasing relevance and effectiveness — as compared to company-provided training — in today’s knowledge economy.

The magic of Sun’s approach is that it accelerates informal learning. The next morning, Jonny Parkes of The Irish Learning Alliance shared a vision of Elite , a learning platform where the semantic web, social learning, and communities of practice converge. In a knowledge society, work and learning are the same thing.

Our tactics need to shift because we no longer serve the expanded scope of the knowledge worker’s environment. If knowledge workers are not in training, they must be at work. The type of learning that is rapidly trending upward is informal learning. We have level two evaluations that confirm knowledge transfer.

Service industries challenge workers to acquire tacit knowledge — the kind of know-how one learns on the job, not in the classroom. The 1980s saw the shift from an industrial to an information economy. That accounts for a mere 5%-10% of the way workers learn their jobs. Standardized courses and workshops multiplied.
