Anthony Onesto argues that traditional training and LMS platforms don't match how people actually work, especially in dispersed teams. He says organizations need microlearning and internal experts sharing knowledge directly, not classroom or e-learning courses.

Hey everyone, this is Anthony Ernesto. And here is my daily burst for today. Thursday, January 19th. And I've been thinking a lot about learning, learning and development within organizations. And just almost two decades of just frustration around learning how, you know, it has evolved from this in person, heavily in person session to more of a digital experience. But even with elearning, it just doesn't fit in the behaviors of humans to just, you know, stop what they're doing, sit down and go through elearning modules, sit in front of a computer, and especially within dispersed workforces or workforces that don't sit in front of a computer, it just doesn't work. It doesn't work with behaviors. It doesn't work to, you know, how people are actually learning. And so we're, you know, thinking about this. Of course, microlearning is a hot topic. We're talking about bursa learning quick pieces of information. But it was heavily responsible on the HR department side to figure out what does the organization need, how to deliver that, looking at external consultants and content. And it's hard, you know, especially when you don't have an HR department and a lot of staff. So the ability to create content across an organization, to have subject matter experts that are in your organization to create content and deliver that out into the organization and what we call share knowledge is learning 3.0 or 4.0, wherever we are at that stage. So we really need to start thinking about how do we move from this traditional learning, even the LMSs, which are just unsatisfactory from a lot of people's perspective, into this more knowledge sharing. So think about that. That's my burst of knowledge for today. We'll see you tomorrow.
