What does the future hold for L&D?
This is a question that is at the heart of the
World of Learning 2014. At this year’s conference, Geoff McDonald
will draw inspiration from his 25 years’ experience at Unilever to provide advice on how to ensure your organisation is at the cutting edge. E-Learning expert Craig Weiss has fl own over from the US to share his key trends for the future of learning technology and MIT’s David Cavallo will reveal his vision of how future talent will learn in the workplace. To see the full conference programme turn to pages 32-33. Many of the forward-thinking industry
professionals in this edition of Learning magazine ask us to rethink what we know about L&D. Chair of the conference Robin Hoyle and Jane Sparrow of The Culture Builders question the concept of training and the trainer respectively, Laura Overton of Towards Maturity discusses the benefi ts of aligning business strategy with learning and Paul Matthews talks about redefi ning capability. The exhibition will look to the future by
showcasing the latest products and solutions from the UK’s leading L&D suppliers. Test- drive the latest learning technology for yourself at our popular Technology Test Drive area and even try out the learning techniques of the future at our free workshops in everything from experiential learning to mindfulness in the workplace. There are also over 40 free seminars
with advice in everything from employee engagement, leadership management and gamifi cation to negotiation and neuroscience. To see what’s on at the exhibition, turn to pages 27-66.
I hope you fi nd this year’s event an insightful
and rewarding experience and I’m confi dent you will leave with all the tools you need to take on the future of L&D!
