A recent survey by Donald H. Taylor, chairman of the Learning and Performance Institute, revealed that enterprise collaboration is falling out of favor with L&D. Forrester Research has shown that roughly 80 percent of enterprise social platform implementations fail. In recent years, social technology has fractured into social intranets, enterprise social networks, and chat platforms. What are we to make of this? Has social lost its way? Have expectations been overinflated? Should L&D let go … or do more?
In this session, you’ll examine the real value that social technology can bring to an organization through the examination of 10 principles you can leverage to guide your own efforts. You will learn strategies to set the stage for success and how to present data to paint an accurate picture of incremental workforce transformation. Finally, you’ll explore the methods you can take to grow greater partnerships with employees, management, and executives to grow work networks and increase the engagement, innovation, and agility your organization demands.
In this session, you will learn:
- How to cut through the bells and whistles and get back to the foundation of social
- How to use your L&D skills to support workflow learning
