    Streaming Video: For effective employee engagement

    Concurrent with the continuous evolution of mobile learning, there will likely be a similar evolution in the use of video. Video is a powerful tool to communicate and exchange information with a high level of engagement.

    Project Management and E-Learning: MORE is worse

    E-Learning projects are different than traditional learning projects, for example, developing an instructor-led training (ILT) course. In general, the key word that describes this difference is MORE. An e-learning project is actually two projects – a software project combined with a performance enhancement (training) project. That means MORE scope, stakeholders, risk, duration, budget pressures and opportunities for communication to fail.

    The current ‘Skills Gap’ Debate: Fact, fiction or sign of labor market challenges

    In the current economic climate, we are often confronted with media coverage of a difficult job market, high unemployment and a depiction of labor shortages across many industries. The press has continuously covered these popular topics of conversation, shown concern for a very slow economic recovery and implied that organizational lack of hiring is due to current skills gap in the labor market; offering this as an explanation of why open positions are not being filled as well.

    Retired, But Not Forgotten: Three ways to keep institutional knowledge

    As more baby boomers retire, employers are discovering that they’re missing more than their former colleagues’ comforting presence and wisdom. They’re losing years of institutional knowledge about products, customers, vendors – along with lessons learned from past mistakes.Of the 80 million baby boomers born from 1946 to 1964, 45 percent are now retired, with 3.6 million becoming eligible to retire each day. And the impact on their employers can be substantial. Up to 50 percent of most company institutional knowledge is expected to be lost when baby boomers leave their jobs. And 72 percent of HR professionals see that as a big problem.

    The Game Has Changed for Leaders: How I learned the hard way

    There are several variations on a quote along the lines of “showing up is half the battle”, or “showing up is 80% of life”. As communications, technology and digital platforms evolve, the natural tendency is for brands and individuals to rush to ‘show up’ in the form of being early adopters to new social platforms and communications channels. What is often lost in the rush, however, is due diligence: diving in too quickly can have unforeseen consequences.
