Proving L&D as an essential business process
Moving L&D to systematic and strategic impact and understanding the technology infrastructure needed.
Why You Should Care
Proving the impact of L&D has been a constant uphill battle.
We are just now starting to see shifts where HPO's are embedding L&D into the organization's makeup in a way that means it is not having to prove its worth through occasional studies or detached ROI reports, but instead demonstrating this every day as an integrated business function.
If you want the competitive edge, now is the time to shift learning and development from its traditional, reactive role to one that is predictive, proactive and performance-orientated.
L&D practitioners are responsible for producing high-impact, high-quality learning experiences, but they are now also being handed bigger, more complex problems to solve, helping whole organizations adapt to unprecedented change.
“Moving L&D to systematic and strategic impact” is based on research interviews with 30+ CEOs, Heads of Learning and Development, and policymakers, alongside a survey of almost 100 learning and development practitioners. It explores L&D’s role within organizations and the shift from measuring engagement to showing business impact.
