Listen "The role of L&D: From skill gaps to business opportunity with Chris Eigeland, Co-founder and CEO of Go1"
Episode Synopsis
How has learning evolved, and how should companies adapt? In this episode, Dan sits down with Chris Eigeland, the Co-founder and CEO of Go1. With a multifaceted background from theme park design to human rights law, Chris discusses the unique challenges and opportunities faced by today's learning and development industry.---------Key Quotes:“ If you look at the investment in an individual’s sort of lifelong learning, you know, unsurprisingly, that investment drops off a cliff after someone turns about 24, 25… there is a growing need for skill development, but the institutional support is lacking and therefore companies need to step up and fill that gap.”“ When I think about what's important and what opportunities are available for companies in market, I think about, do you have an L&D program that is available and frictionless? People want to be learning where they are, not where you want them to be.”“What does a strong learning culture look like? It is something rooted in three things: one is curiosity, one is velocity, and one is a high-trust team. And those three things together will accelerate business outcomes.”--------Time stamps:(00:46) The evolution of learning and how to adapt (11:05) 60-seconds budget breakdown (12:18) Lifelong learning(15:05) Self-development hacks ---------Links: Chris Eigeland on LinkedIn Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
