When the learning organization adopts digital learning, L&D professionals focus on tools and structures to create a “learning experience” You Learn when and where you want Organization focuses on experiences and design Courses are “micro” and “macro” Everyone is incented to teach, coach, and share Technology creates a personalized, customized experience LEARNING ORGANIZATION-LED EMPLOYEE- LED

How Do We Get There
From Here? L&D starts to build digital capabilities to support agile development and implements a digital learning experience platform L&D expands beyond digital content to the entire digital experience, including coaching, practice, spaced learning, curation, and personalization L&D embraces digital thinking and includes business leaders as digital contributors in an enterprise- wide digital learning experience (Very few companies) L&D explores video, apps, and tools to enable digital learning experiences, often outsourcing content development Becoming Digital Exploring Digital Being Digital Doing Digital

Four Principal Changes to The
Organization Digital Learning is not technology or “digital content” It is L&D learning to “Be Digital” Not just “Act Digital” Design Thinking Agile Management New TechnologyCulture Bringing the learner experience front and center, focusing on Experience, not program Creating an environment conducive to continuous learning Facilitating teams, coaching, management support, learning valued Implementing social, mobile, analytics, and cloud solutions

Does Leadership reinforce the need to Learn? Can we get time from experts and leaders? Do people share information openly? Do people feel empowered to point out errors? Do we listen to customers openly? Do we take the time to reflect? Do people move around and take risks? Are experts rewarded and valued?
