A look into the crystal ball: 10 trends for corporate learning
1. Human capital planning is becoming an integral part of business development: this is where the organizational learning agenda is defined
2. Learning will be better integrated with talent and performance management processes, so that L&D gets into the performance improvement business
3. The transition to knowledge-based economies requires a broader remit of the learning function to become an architect or enabler of learning, which calls for a totally new set of performance metrics
4. L&D has to cope successfully with the duality of a mature learning context in established markets and an immature context in emerging markets
5. One brand strategies raise market expectations on global consistency of brand experience and the underlying culture and people profiles: a clear mandate for global learning
6. L&D will include informal learning in its provision and transition from learning programs to learning environments that combine, e.g., formal training with e-learning, knowledge portals, web 2.0 features, coaching and job aids
7. The use of an increasing variety of delivery channels will be driven by availability, technological progress, globalization, cost considerations and the preferences of a multi-generational workforce
8. There will be a pronounced accountability for managers to facilitate on-the-job learning and to create a culture of learning, curiosity and mutual coaching within and across their teams, accompanied by a responsibility shift for development from the organization to the individual
9. L&D functions will be subject to the ongoing industrialization of internal support processes which will command more governance, collaboration and sharing across often dispersed L&D teams, and more technology
10. The number one challenge in global learning transformation initiatives is being lean, transparent and cost-effective – and at the same time impactful, agile, business aligned and innovative
