Reframing L&D: The Need For Learning Practitioners In An Evolving World

L&D In Action: Winning Strategies from Learning Leaders

Nigel Paine believes that we are living in the Century of People. With an industrial past that viewed humans as nothing more than cogs in a machine, we’re still making steady progress toward organizations that treat their employees as people first. In this complex technological moment, It’s Learning and Development leaders who hold the power to maximize the contribution of their companies by activating the full human potential of ALL of their people.

Dr. Paine, our guest today, is a speaker, consultant, author, and researcher. He is the Founder and CEO of nigelpaine.com, a consultancy focused on building more effective workplaces by promoting learning, creativity, innovation, and value-based leadership, as well as the link between them. He passionately advocates for a reframing of learning and development in response to the unprecedented pace of change in this 21st century.

Join us as we discuss:

• Viewing employees for their individuality in order to solve problems for the organization as a whole
• How to outsource L&D needs without outsourcing brainpower and creative problem-solving
• The importance of being “self-conscious” at work, so that work is learning and learning is work
• The potential for AI and new tech to act as a personal “Chief of Staff”
• How WD-40 Company amplified its success by celebrating mistakes and crowdsourcing solutions
