Speexx co-founder and president, Armin Hopp, shares his thoughts on the evolution of the modern workplace, with the global talent pool now firmly in the driving seat and aware of their inherent value.
Understanding why some companies are hesitant to digitize their corporate learning and training and why now is the time to utilize technology for L&D.
An overview of what trends we in HR and learning and development can expect to see in corporate training as we embrace the new normal of professional workforce training.
The modern learner constantly feels overwhelmed and distracted. For learning material to be effective, L&D needs to meet their demands for personalized, digital, flexible learning material available at their convenience.
Globalization and digital transformation are changing the way business works, and more organizations are upskilling their employees in order to keep up - it’s simply not enough for teams to speak only one language. When a company limits itself to speaking only one language it is missing out on opportunities to develop new partnerships and secure new clients. Many companies are at different stages in their digital transformation journeys, and have questions about best practices when it comes to corporate language training in the digital world.
The world of work is changing. An increasingly challenging labor market with very low rates of unemployment has resulted in employees holding the balance of power in organizations. At the same time, while automation is creating new roles and new opportunities, there are many people who need to reskill in order to fill these roles. According to global HR and learning analyst Josh Bersin, it typically takes between 18 - 20 months to reskill people but companies are struggling to do this.
At Speexx, AI is not merely a buzzword: We have long understood that the one-size-fits-all product of the past is not ideal; everyone learns at different speeds, begins learning at different levels, and has unique, individual preferences when it comes to how they’d like to learn
Employability is key in a fast-changing world. In the workplace, learners are motivated to keep their skills up-to-date so that they don't fall behind. If companies are to retain their best performing employees, it is vital to offer the best learning and development opportunities.
We've arrived at a new economy. Just as the Industrial Revolution fundamentally changed how business was done, the digital transformation is doing the same. But in this new era, an organization's biggest advantage is not its technology.
It’s that time of year again—our annual Speexx Exchange conference, hosted by Laura Overton of Towards Maturity, is right around the corner! This leading industry event on talent management practices brings together learning and development (L&D) practitioners from around the world for a fulfilling day of networking, sharing and learning in Berlin.
