This report, produced by Towards Maturity and supported by the CIPD, presents the evidence for leaders in learning and development to reflect on changing approaches to workplace learning and consider the skills they need for the future.

It aims to stimulate action amongst L&D professionals around the globe that will:

  • inspire them to embrace the increasingly self-directed nature of today’s learners
  • harness the potential for learning innovation through technology
  • modernise their approach to developing the skills they need to facilitate social and experiential learning
  • help them to engage with business leaders and enhance business performance.
