Online technology critical to developing leadership role: Karthik K.S.

India is much faster in adopting technology and the global influence has changed the mindset of Indian employers
The mass approach to training has made it necessary to adopt technology to impart learning, along with enabling consistency in training quality standards. Further, as people move up to leadership roles in the middle level, technology plays a critical role in allowing this pool of talent to acquire managerial education or MBAs through online technology platforms that support the efforts of both development and retention. When one compares India to the West, with respect to adoption of online learning, India is not even 5% of the industry size. However, Indians are now adopting technology much faster and the global influence has changed the mindset of Indian employers, who see the value that learning brings to productivity and building capability. Technology is being utilized in a big way in education and learning and we will continue to see rapid growth in this space.
