Learning – The Foundation for Agility and Sustainable Performance

CRF’s research report - 'Learning - The Foundation for Agility and Sustainable Performance' -  explores the role that learning can play in helping our organisations become more agile, innovative and change-ready, how we can better align learning with the organisation’s strategic priorities, and how we can use the latest developments in the learning field to increase the impact of investments in learning. The report sets out practical recommendations for deploying learning as a critical strategic lever, and for improving the effectiveness of the Learning function.

The topics explored in the research are:

  • Setting the scene - learning and the new economy
  • Key trends in the learning market
  • The learning organisation
  • Connecting organisation, strategy and learning
  • High-impact learning - implications for learning professionals
  • Conclusions and recommendations

The research report is available to CRF members only. To access the report, please log in with your username and password. If you are not a member of the CRF network, you can still access the executive summary of the report here.
