It’s Not All About the Technology

CLO Magazine

I have a pet peeve. While the digital age has spawned technology that enables organizations and individuals to do more with a laptop, tablet or phone today than a mainframe computer in its heyday, I think this positive progress has led us to become somewhat lazy about the original reasons for these advances. There — I said it. As blasphemous as this may sound, I began my career in the ‘80s, and I remember a world of paper-based phone messages and no email.

How to Use Elearning to Encourage Employees Professional Development
