L&D is going through an identity crisis \u2014 here\u2019s why that\u2019s a good thing<\/strong> <\/a>— from chieflearningofficer.com by Linda Cai
\nWe\u2019re in a new situation, and we need to do something different. Our employees are hungry for growth and purpose amidst the Great Reshuffle, and companies need to respond and act or risk watching their talent walk out the door.<\/em><\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/em><\/p>\n

That\u2019s why organizations need our expertise more than ever. The demand for L&D specialists increased by 94 percent between July and September of 2021 compared to the previous three month period, according to our just-released\u00a02022 Workplace Learning Report<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the same time, our research also revealed that we have work to do. The report reveals L&D professionals spent 35 percent less time learning than their HR colleagues in 2021. It is not surprising, since a lot of them are overwhelmed by workload, and well-being has decreased. But the L&D function is going through what might be its most consequential transformation to date, and our success depends on whether we can learn the skills that this new world of work requires of us. Are we prepared to take on this increasingly strategic role for years to come?<\/p>\n

It will not be easy. But we can start this important work by doing two things: loosening up how we think about ourselves, and going back to why many of us got into this business \u2014 to help people do their best work and be their best selves.<\/p>\n

Here’s a relevant quote from the<\/em> <\/span>2022 Workplace Learning Report:<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s unsurprising that we see more and more progressive companies naming chief learning officers \u2014 as was the case with chief diversity officers when diversity was no longer an HR topic but a business advantage. Learning is not an HR topic; it\u2019s a business topic.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Andrew Saidy\u00a0<\/span>
\nVice President, Global Talent, Ubisoft<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe really need to change and think about more productive and sustainable ways to help connect talent to opportunity, and our view is that that’s going to be done through a skills-based approach.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
