Clark N. Quinn
Revolutionize Learning & Development
Performance and Innovation Strategy for the Information Age
Pfeiffer, 2014
Aperçu
The learning and development industry can remain relevant if it does the right things.
Recommendation
Clark N. Quinn, an expert on corporate learning, proposes a total revamp of the learning and development (L&D) industry. He identifies recent technological and social changes, and blasts the field for ignoring them. Calling for L&D to transform into “Performance & Development” (P&D), Quinn both outlines an idealized model and discusses practical issues in P&D implementation. Though at times wordy and wandering, his message is an alarm clock for the industry, a challenge to awaken and update where necessary, but without undermining learning that works. getAbstract recommends his change guidebook to corporate learning professionals.
