Focus Boston 2019
RESKILLING L&D: DESIGNING LEARNING EXPERIENCES YOUR EMPLOYEES WANT
Many learning leaders are looking to transform their approach to developing talent and upskilling the workforce. Technology and disruption has teams wondering how to keep up and where to focus next. Degreed and Harvard Business Publishing Corporate Learning think the best place to start is by understanding how your workforce learns so you can better enable their skill development.
Focus Boston will start with the former CLO of LinkedIn and Yahoo, Kelly Palmer. She will share ideas from her new book, The Expertise Economy, on successfully increasing employee engagement through learning.
The audience will then have the opportunity to hear how forward-thinking organizations like Hasbro & CDM Smith University are addressing key skill gaps tying learning to business initiatives and purpose.
