Guessing is not a strategy: How to build decision velocity with AI and real-time data

I remember Fast Company magazine many years ago stating that “Learning is Social”. Having a background in learning and performance, I applauded their promoting this point. The problem was that there was little support for social learning. Even if tools and techniques were available in most organizations to help social learning, they were not used adequately.
Now, Accenture is promoting their success at what they call ‘phenomenal’ learning. Trainees work through real-life scenarios and simultaneously build relationships across the organization. They are surprised and connected – and thus more engaged. Of course, this could be just a consulting company blowing its own horn, but look at the similarity in what they have done and what is needed to improve employee engagement as discussed in previous posts and related studies. The convergence of many factors may finally force training to take on the social aspect so sorely needed.
