We can shed our obsession with isolated formal learning and embrace the real question: how can we best support organisations and individuals to develop a culture of continuous learning and high performance. Central to this cultural shift is the understanding that learning happens by learners, not to them.

As opposed to speeding up performance, formal training slowed down the speed. Those programs quickly transformed into self-paced, e-learning or remote learning programs as the “new normal” to support ramp-ups and employee development. The role of formal L&D is de-emphasized.

It is about complementing what your brain does well by providing the capabilities that it does not do well (rote computation, distance communication, and exact detail), but wherever and whenever you are. Given that our performers are increasingly mobile, it makes sense to deliver the capabilities where needed, not just at their desk.

How do you use social learning to support formal learning? How do you motivate people to participate in social learning when their schedules are already full? The role of L&D is to communicate and connect those who are doing the work (at the top of the pyramid) and management whose job is to support them.
