The Week That Was, October 24-28

Check out this week’s talkers on CLOmedia.com.

1. The 6 Skills Every Active Leader Needs: No one said being a good leader was easy. It takes a lot of energy, focus and most of all a lot of learning.
2. How User Friendly is Your LMS?: It may be time to embrace cloud-based learning solutions. Dated LMSs are not doing your workforce development efforts any favors.
3. The Growing Role of Microlearning: How do executives see the learning and development budget? Is it a cost, an investment, or a combination of the two?
4. Individual Contributors Need Learning, Too: Don’t focus energy and development resources solely on managers, senior and high potential leaders. Individual contributors have an important role to play in business too.
5. 5 Ways to Learn Faster: In the quest to grow as a leader and as a person, you need others’ help, you need to fail fast, and it won’t hurt to make your own luck.
