Whether it\u2019s new technologies, new learning designs, or the ever-changing role of the L&amp;D professional, there is always something we\u2019re trying to adapt to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.learningtechnologies.co.uk\/webinars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learning Technologies webinar<\/a>, Jez Anderson, L&amp;D Consultant at Netex Learning, and Learning Technologies\u2019 Chairman Donald H Taylor focused on these ever-changing roles and asked the question: <em>If Operations teams start to play a more active role in defining, developing, and<\/em> <em>implementing the learning they need, what does that mean for the future of the L&amp;D professionals?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A global online company looking to overhaul their training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To bring this problem to life, Jez presented a current Netex project: a global online company who was growing rapidly and looking to overhaul their training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The overhaul of the training programme came about because it couldn\u2019t keep up with the growth. The Learning Management System had become unmanageable; it had become a dumping ground. It was content heavy, and hard to navigate. It had no structure to the content, and no learning pathways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was the ideal case study to address these changing roles because this digital transformation hadn\u2019t come about through an L&amp;D team, instead it was led by Operations. But had it been plain sailing for them? No, because they took charge of the learning without any real insight into how learning works, or the best way to go about it. In fact, Jez revealed that this company had said that L&amp;D didn\u2019t work for them. But it wasn\u2019t until they started working with Netex that they realised the value of L&amp;D \u2013 of considering things such as learning strategies and methodologies \u2013 and understood how L&amp;D can help them avoid these problems from occurring again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can&#8217;t be denied, this was a topic that resonated with the webinar\u2019s attendees. Thoughtful questions were asked and animated conversation flowed, and Jez and Donald actively engaged with the attendees to explore questions, such as what role does L&amp;D have? Should they be owning L&amp;D, or supporting Operations in development of L&amp;D? What should the relationship look like? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some of their answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Equip, engage and empower<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Should L&amp;D \u2018own\u2019 training? The ultimate consensus was no; in fact, everyone agreed that we need to shift away from that mindset. Jez summed it up by saying the role of L&amp;D should be to \u2018equip, engage and empower\u2019. By this he meant that L&amp;D should be there to advise, support and give guidance. Be there to facilitate change. They should bring their expertise and focus on HOW we learn, rather than being a content factory who mindlessly produces training materials. Instead, they should work closely with Operations and help them realise, and shape, their training plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">L&amp;D need to bring the innovation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018And shape\u2019 is key in the last sentence. L&amp;D need to bring their expertise to the fore and challenge Operations to think differently. They need to show them the innovative way. Yes, if Operations are savvy, they will recognise the value of training and want to provide a programme that makes a difference, but it\u2019s L&amp;D will know the best way to bring that about. They can shift Operation\u2019s focus from content, quantity and speed and show how innovation and work can transform the learning, making sure it does its job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make sense of the content<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Content is everywhere, that isn\u2019t going to change; it\u2019s not going anywhere, especially with AI now being used to produce content more effectively. So, L&amp;D need to not just address the \u2018what\u2019 but really turn their focus to all the \u2018how\u2019 questions: How do they support learning better? How are they going to structure the content, the learning? How do they deliver that to individuals? How do they make sure the right content gets to the right people? How do they make sure it\u2019s measured and seen as impactful? Exploring and considering all these questions will help them curate that content in the most appropriate way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, it\u2019s about working in-sync with the Operations team and help them become a learning organisation. We\u2019re not saying it\u2019ll be easy, but let\u2019s aim to navigate that rocky path and show them how truly valuable L&amp;D professionals are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/donaldhtaylor.co.uk\/insight\/are-you-in-the-training-ghetto\/\">Where is your L&amp;D team right now?<\/a> Are they facing this challenge, or do they already have a good working relationship with Operations?
