Still wondering about “social” learning?
DescriptionWhat is social learning and how can it transform your employee experience? How do workplace communities foster a collaborative company culture, in which the collective wisdom of the masses is as highly valued as the insights of “experts?” More importantly, how can we successfully leverage this trend and fully realize the positive business impact that this promises?
Corporate learning has traditionally focused solely on the transfer of information, knowledge, and expertise. This is being challenged and transformed by interactive, collaborative exchanges through social tools, collaboration and online communities, providing a full employee experience. Increasingly, traditional learning is evolving into a community dynamic, initiating more open, honest conversations and proving to have a powerful impact on job and business performance.
In this session, attendees will learn:
1. How to leverage collaborative tools, including online communities and social networking to foster workforce learning and development
2. How to build a sustainable and productive employee experience
3. How organizations can improve business functions, including brand and partner experience, customer experience and employee experience through social learning and community

5. Reduce customer
response times.
More than 90% of customers' issues
haven't been unearthed in most
organizations, and in addition, often the
organization doesn't have answers for
them, according to Forrester Research.
These issues lead to long support calls, poor
issue resolution, cost increases and customer
dissatisfaction.
