Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Today's learning executive must combine leadership, communication, business acumen, and innovation with learning expertise to drive higher performance and create strong business results. To accomplish this, the corporate learning executive's role must be well aligned and tightly integrated with the organization's business goals and needs, no matter where the individual's role sits in the org chart and no matter how strong the learning exec's background is in education. Innovative companies that have pushed beyond traditional training departments no longer treat learning as simply running an efficient training department. Rather, the learning program is directly linked to employee effectiveness and organizational success, making the learning executive more accountable to the business. The procurement of learning, orchestration of the learning program, and presentation of training classes are only one part of the job. The most critical aspect? Making sure that learning initiatives move the needle on the dial measuring employee performance and key business metrics.
