The LPI works with learning teams and commercial learning providers, which have been under unprecedented pressure to respond to the events of 2020. According to Ed, L&D has shown leadership and agility, redefining its role to support learning.
Ed Monk:
“Learning is now seen as important; its profile has been raised. The value of companies is now determined not just by profit but by how they look after their people. Learning and development has never been as important.”
“L&D has become more digital and more agile, combined with the ‘human touch.’ The best L&D teams are bringing humanity into their digital offerings.”
