Digital vs. Analog: Navigating Change in the Digital Age with Shaunak Roy from YellowDig
In this session, I had an exhilarating chat with the insightful Shaunak Roy from YellowDig, and you've got to hear this! We dive deep into the world of Learning and Development (L&D), exploring the rapid changes and unique challenges we're all facing in this era of digital transformation.
Shaunak shared his vision of companies needing to evolve into learning organizations, a concept that has been rapidly accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical changes, and the relentless march of AI. And let me tell you, his perspective is a game-changer.
We also had a lively debate on the age-old analog vs. digital learning discussion. But guess what? We both agreed that this is the wrong question to ask. Intrigued yet? You should be!
Shaunak and I grappled with the pace of change, which is so fast that keeping up might seem impossible. But folks, this is where we flip the script! Instead of trying to keep up, we discuss the idea of strategically choosing where to focus our efforts.
Now, don't get me wrong, this transformation isn't an option anymore – it's a necessity. But the big question is: what does this mean for us? For L&D leaders? For CEOs? For the VP of Sales or Marketing? Trust me, you'll want to hear our thoughts on this!
Towards the end, we reflect on how this seemingly overwhelming environment is actually an exciting opportunity for us, talent leaders. We have the power to shape the future of our organizations and make a real difference. And that, my friends, is the real thrill of it all.
So what are you waiting for? Dive into our conversation and gain some serious insights on the future of L&D. I can promise you this – you won't look at your role the same way again! Hit that play button, and let's go on this journey together. Catch you on the inside!
