The evolution of the role of a Chief Learning Officer

The CLO is an individual who is able to exercise the lens of the business to peek into the future and translate that into actionable people and talent goals for an organisation. With the interest in the role and its definition having spiked significantly in the past months, it is important to create baseline benchmarks on how leaders understand this role in detail.

The CLO role is definitely expected to become one of the most crucial roles at the leadership levels of an organisation. As the role needs to have as much aptitude about the business as s/he does about talent, it is a viable career for an individual both from the business side as well as from the HR side.
