Transformation
is a very interesting word from the organization point of view. Organization
transformation journey can be filled with lot of potholes or roses but it can sometimes
lead to anxiety, anger, confusion, withdrawal among the employees. Learning and
development can be leveraged to influence talent and business decisions during the
transformation journey to a greater extent.
In Today’s
VUCA world where each company has its own culture and values is searching for
talents which can set the proper behaviors and attitudes in order to set these
things right for an organization. The learning and development teams of each organization
try very hard to come up with a training module or some principles which can
lead the employees to the high perform tic environment where team members give
faster, effective, efficient and productive performances which can help the
company to strategize its policies to succeed in the future. But instead L
& D teams get stuck finding the solutions and come up with a less effective
plan. Thus why can’t the companies go for those training modules or learning
modules which are already available either by Stanford University E-learning programs
which also has high quality interactive multimedia learning modules. The other
options which can be of greater values are like Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC)
which has amazing mix of traditional course materials to interactive user
forums which can be of great learning and it promotes the reuse and remixing of
resources through a very well organized package which can be of a great help
for the employees to upgrade their skills and knowledge.
L&D
plays a major role in building the sustainable culture and values of an
organization. It can help in attaining the solid measurable performance gains
by motivating the employees and bring the sense of leadership in each and every
one. Learning and training should not be constrained to one the talented one’s
but to all the employees as it can make an impact. If in an organization where
only the talented lot is selected and trained whereas in another organization
where every employee is trained and time to time are upgraded with their skill
sets. It’s very evident that the second organization will have a greater impact
on the company’s development and success.
