learning is the new business strategy as l & d leads the way

WL and D's Playbooke’re living in a time of exploding change and disruption. I think there are some people in Learning and Development who are looking at this transformation and actually making sense of it. Brandon Carson is one of those people and he captures it in his book L&D’s Playbook for the Digital Age. We discuss how Learning and Development can lead the way through the digital age, the challenges we face and potential ways of overcoming them.

Brandon is an accomplished Talent Development Leader with extensive experience in creating global workforce development strategies, leading teams of all sizes, and implementing learning technology at scale. He’s been a learning leader at well-known companies including Home Depot and Delta Airlines and is now Vice President of Learning and Leadership at Walmart. Brandon is also the founder of L&D Cares, dedicated to helping L&D professionals flourish and thrive.

WE DISCUSS:

  • Brandon’s reasons for writing The L&D Playbook for the Digital Age
  • How the pandemic highlighted the value of Learning and Development (L&D)
  • The challenges Learning and Development faces and must prepare for
  • How Learning and Development supports the new ways of working
  • Moving business from a production efficiency model to a scalable learning model
  • Importance of really knowing how the work gets done
  • How learning professionals can become change agents
  • How AI and Blockchain might advance what Learning and Development can offer

TIME: 36 minutes
