DESCRIPTION

A presentation about the fact that Learning and Development is broken. How we are all navel gazing, focused too much on benchmarking and best practice and not aware of the Cynefin framework. The solution is to go to the edge. There are three examples of "edges" here: Automattic as an example of distributed virtual teams really working, experimental academics finding out how to scale personalised education in Massive Open Online Courses and Mozilla coming up with Open Badges as an alternative to competency management. The story closes with the lean startup methodology as a way to set up your own experimentation.

L&D is broken

Page 7: Learning from the Outside

“Learning to date still operates mainly among the old models, it hasn't flipped (yet). It still focuses mainly on knowledge content (which changes fast and is available on the Internet anyway), is facilitated by paid experts, away from actual work. [..] In fact, while more and more industries see the flipping point coming when digital becomes the new normal' and new market dynamics arise, the education and corporate learning systems seem to be lagging far behind.”

Benchmarking andBest Practices

Page 11: Learning from the Outside

Is your organization providing the right learning in the right way to the right people? Our study will tell you – and tell you what you need to do next. How can your organization persevere – and win? Our study will show you.

The data and information sets will then be used to populate our findings and recommendations. This will allow the client to baseline each functional area as Emerging, Developing, Best Practice or Best in Class.

Benchmarking and metrics to compare your organization against others

Page 12: Learning from the Outside

Benchmarking is greatwhen you lack vision

Page 13: Learning from the Outside
Page 14: Learning from the Outside

“[When] you benchmark yourself againstyour competitors. Over time, everybody starts to look the same.”

Harold Jarche

Page 15: Learning from the Outside

“[..] As the number of products within a category multiplies, the differences between them start to become increasingly trivial [..] If martians were to land in this country, they would think there was a conspiracy of brands colluding.”

“In a complicated context, at least one right answer exists. In a complex con-text, however, right answers can’t be ferreted out. It’s like the difference be-tween, say, a Ferrari and the Brazilian rainforest.”

David Snowden in Harvard Business Review

Academics and Open Source

1. Automattic“How to make distributed/

virtual teams work”

Page 26: Learning from the Outside

“I will never stop learning. [..]I will never pass up an opportunity to help out a colleague, and I’ll remember the days before I knew everything. I am more motivated by impact than money, and I know that Open Source is one of the most powerful ideas of our generation. I will communi-cate as much as possible, because it’s the oxygen of a distributed company. [..]”

Matt Mullenweg in the Automattic Creed

Page 27: Learning from the Outside

“Everyone works from their own home or office, and we’re spread out all over the world”

Page 28: Learning from the Outside

“We get the whole company together once a year to brainstorm the broad strategy for the company for the coming months, and also just to hang out and enjoy the company of the people we work with all day.”

Automattic Website

Page 29: Learning from the Outside

“For every feature we launch, we gather metrics about its usage, interaction, and growth in addition to listening to the masses of feedback we get on our blog and through support. We have a one-button deploy system for WordPress.com, and we push code to the site 30-50 times a day.”

“I don’t believe in technology, I believe in people. And that’s why I don’t think our struggle is over the future of technology, it is over the struggle for the future of our culture that is assailed from all corners by the vultures of capital.”

Jim Groom

Page 35: Learning from the Outside

“Edupunk is student-centered, resourceful, teacher- or community-created rather than corporate-sourced, and underwritten by a progressive political stance”

Stephen Downes

Bonus edge: Startups

Page 49: Learning from the Outside

“[..] The first step is to enter the Build phase as quickly as possible with a minimum viable product (MVP). The MVP is that version of the product that enables a full turn of the Build-Measure-Learn loop with a minimum amount of effort and the least amount of development time.”

Eric Ries in The Lean Startup

That is all, so...

To what edge will yourfirst experiment take you?

It will be the only way to fix Learning and Development
