The idea of soliciting input, whether from customers, associates or the general public, is hardly new. Yet crowdsourcing (the soliciting of collective wisdom) is a relatively new term which has quickly become an important business concept. The spike in the ability to crowdsource, driven by web technologies, has enabled the concept to assume center stage in business strategy. A strong ability to tap into the collective intelligence of the public, or a well-defined segment of the public, enables businesses to greatly expand the talent pool available at their disposal. Typically, crowdsourcing...

Until very recently, virtually all corporate trainers and instructional designers followed the traditional route to training--they identified their organizations' needs and then prepared and delivered formal event-based programs that were primarily classroom or e-learning based. Several learning professionals still take this way, even though they probably realize it cannot survive much longer. In a fast-paced corporate environment, where customer needs evolve rapidly and competitors bear down harder and faster than ever, training professionals need to learn new pedagogical techniques and...

In our modern, often volatile economy, we can no longer expect permanent or long term employment with any one employer. Today's worker has, on average, multiple jobs and even multiple careers. Layoffs, terminations, and pink slips are so universal that they are now euphemistically called downsizing or rightsizing. But whatever the label, the process is no easier to deal with--not for the employee whose services are being terminated nor for the organization and executives who initiate the termination.
Fortunately, there is a silver lining to all this turbulence, and that is that the...

Have you ever left a class or training program excited about what you learned, only to realize a month later that you have applied little of it back on the job? As a training manager have you ever invested significant dollars and resources to carefully design and deploy a training program only to see little or no shift in individual behavior or culture afterwards? Even when your students passed the knowledge tests and you are certain learning occurred?
As learning professionals, we often focus on the easy goal--imparting knowledge--and ignoring what it really takes to create lasting...

The phrase "communities of practice" is relatively new; the concept and its utility is not. Simply put, a community of practice is a learning community. When people realize that they can benefit from sharing their knowledge, experience and insights with like-minded and similarly-motivated people, the seed for a community of practice gets planted. E-learning communities, continuing education groups, cooperative education groups and apprenticeship programs are all, in some form or fashion, communities of practice.
In a few rare instances, a community of practice will build and nurture...
