Go1 helps millions of people in thousands of organizations engage in learning that is relevant, effective and inspiring.

What new stakes does COVID bring to L&D in 2021? On one hand, companies with workplace disruption are struggling to meet the demand for digitised content to close skills gaps. On the other hand, L&D is under pressure as a cost line item and unless learning leaders demonstrate contribution to ROI, there is a genuine risk for many L&D teams. 

The challenge is; most senior L&D professionals do not know how to operate like a business within their company. This is the biggest reason budgets get cut or not secured. L&D themselves need to be upskilled to overcome this gap. 

In this webinar, industry experts, Lori Niles and Amanda Nolen, were in a unique position to discuss the skills L&D need themselves to become strategic business enablers. Ollie Browning at Go1 also provides insight into the unique solutions to consider when procuring content and provide economies of scale to drive better ROI for L&D. 

The focus and takeaways of this webinar were: 

How to demonstrate evidence of need and applicable evaluation strategies 

How to use proprietary methodology, including Data-Driven Learning Design and Learning Triage

Learning leaders and their organisations have come a long way since the pandemic started. As we enter into 2021 however, learning leaders on the front lines will need to continue enabling and delivering value-creating efforts within their organisations, or risk being left behind. So, how can L&D leaders become best-positioned to support their workforce and become strategic business enablers in 2021?
