CLO with CXOs (knocking CEO’s cabin) : May we come in?
CEO : Of course! Thanks Leaders for Troubleshooting our Organization. Mr. CLO, What's Next?
CLO : Now that we have a decent understanding of our business and how learning (aka L&D) is going to make it better, let's plan to improve our existing L&D.
One of the CXOs : But how to do that?
CLO : Remember, we worked on our Baseline L&D Assessment some time back?
CXOs : Yea, that was a good exercise.
CLO : It was done when we launched our Corporate OutLearning Practice, to set the ball rolling and find out our existing L&D's strengths and weaknesses. But now we will systematically work on each of those 8 points, to make it better.
CEO : Go deeper on this...
CLO : The L&D assessment had 8 questions which covered the whole gamut of L&D in a nutshell. Let us retake the test again and find out our latest score.
Once you re-take the test, on the results page, click on View Questions tab. You will see all the questions along with your rating. Look at each of the questions, your assessment/rating and brainstorm on what we can do to improve that rating. This will be our action plan to improve our L&D.
Some of the actions might already be in the pipeline, some we might have just done during our exercise in last few editions, while some you might find out after this exercise.
CEO : Makes sense. Let us do it.

More than the score, what matters, is the action plan to improve that score.

WHY this newsletter :
Everyone says L&D is critical, but no one acts like that. I am fed up of seeing L&D in a corner for a decent amount of time now. It was never fashionable. But its time has come NOW, because of the tsunami of Digital Disruption that we are going through.
Digital Disruption is going to kill businesses without notice. The only way to survive is OutLearn. OutLearn, not just learn, because it is not just about “acquiring some skills”, but about “reinventing how business is done". It demands repositioning of your L&D like R&D.
And that is what my mission is. I am on a mission to reposition corporate L&D, like R&D, and use learning for real business outcomes.
I started this newsletter to share everything that I have learnt about the use of learning for business in last 20 years.
Are you using learning to make you real money? Bring in customers? Attract top class talent? Develop new products jointly with your existing as well as potential customers?
Are you using learning as your Secret Weapon? Are you using it as your Competitive Advantage?
Subscribe to this newsletter and you will get answers to all these questions along with a roadmap to re-position your L&D, like R&D, and use it for real business outcomes.
Feel free to ping me if you have any issues/problems/challenges related to use of learning for your own business. I will be happy to help.
