Like the brains of many professors, the information you’re looking for is usually in there somewhere, but sometimes difficult to pin down.

If knowledge acquisition is the end-game, then the logical conclusion was to provide information that could be turned, whatever the magic employed, into knowledge in the recipient’s head. We use our knowledge and experience to interpret data and information. What I’ve done is managed to retain information in short-term memory.

Equally, I asked myself, why would people prefer to get information and learn through the intermediation of their L&D department if they can do so faster and easier from other practitioners and colleagues, or people in their network who may or may not work in the same team, company or country as them?

Alan Deutschman, the author of ‘ Change or Die ’ makes a pretty stark statement about people’s reluctance to change: “What if a well-informed, trusted authority figure said you had to make difficult and enduring changes in the way you think and act?

In other words, ‘informally’. Research over the past 40 years has shown that informal and workplace learning is increasingly pervasive and central to learning in organisations. The evidence, however, does point to the fact that most learning is experiential and social, and most of that being carried out in a self-directed way.
