Learning in Action: Building agility and the ability to experiment as part of learning
Learning in the age of AI and other fast-developing technologies plays a pivotal role in ensuring organisational readiness and productivity. While Gen AI has dominated conversations, the rate of tech development might soon throw up newer technologies that organisations grapple to understand and build the right proficiency.
Talking with Dhruv Mehra, Head of B2B Marketing at upGrad, Bhavna Batra, Vice President - People at S&P Global, shares her vision of building learning programs that ensure companies are able to weather disruptive times with success. For her, the ability to predict, be agile, and ensure experimentation are all key parts of an impactful, future-ready learning program.
Key takeaways from the conversation include:
- Support agility: Learning agility is required to give organisations a winning chance to prepare for the future
- Build an ecosystem of experimentation: Allowing employees to learn through experimentation, explorations, and trying out new things is key. Learning from failures is crucial to developing successful ways of harnessing newer technologies.
- Diversify learning programs: Different learning needs, styles, and pace requires companies to move from a singular approach to providing the ingredients that learners can use to craft their own learning journeys.
- Create a healthy mix of internal and external sources: To meet evolving learning demands, companies require both a robust internal learning process and the chance for learners to step out and explore learning opportunities.
