3. PERSONALISATION – A DEFINITION
Def. - the tailoring

curriculum and
learning
environments by
learners or for
learners in order
to meet their
different learning
needs and
aspirations.
4. PERSONALISATION – A REALITY
CHECK
A confusion
between
Individualism vs
personalisation has
led to panic
5. For organisational
learning, there is a
balance to be struck
between individual
needs and strategic
drivers
The fine balance
BUSINESS DRIVERS / INDIVIDUAL
DRIVERS
8. Understanding the
journey – the strategic
goals of the
organisation need to
be well understood
and communicated in
a motivating way
Understanding your role in the journey
DESIRE TO LEARN

create a learner
environment that
balance personal
preferences with
business needs
Self determination

IDENTIFYING WHAT WORKS
Isen and her colleagues
show that when people
feel good, their thinking
becomes more creative,
integrative, flexible and
open to information

Positive Affect on Decision-Making Strategy. Social Cognition:

17. Creating the right
environment isn’t just
providing solutions, it’s
creating a choice
architecture for
learning that evolves
CREATING A LEARNING
ENVIRONMENT
18. PERSONALISATION THROUGH CONTEXT
AND CHOICE
It’s why we see ‘The Learning
Ecosystem’ as one of the
most useful concepts in
recent years – it reflects the
reality of the learning mix.
Personalisation doesn’t need
a unique content, it requires
context
19. The ecosystem will
differ depending on the
needs, culture and
objectives of each
discreet business area.
It should then enable
individuals to explore.
THERE IS NEVER ONE SIZE FITS
ALL
20. An ecosystem isn’t a
technology
architecture, a
curriculum or career
paths – it’s a
combination of this and
more, driven by the
input, use and
refinement by each
learner
IT RELIES ON EVERY INDIVIDUAL

The challenge for most learning and development teams is situated in one of the following:
My Learning technology has been inherited from a past age/is owned by IT/does not join up
I know all about 70:20:10 but that really doesn’t fit with the company needs and will not achieve what the company requires
I know I need to go digital, but I have no background/its too costly/I don’t know where to start
We’ve already invested in technology before and franjly we need to do better with what we’ve got
How do we know its working – xAPI helps us measure more stuff, but won’t that just create tons of data? How can I uncover what really matters?
We deal with all these issues and today we will take you through the steps we take in order to create coherent learning ecosystems for our customers

In contrast to individualized learning, personalised learning emphasizes the notion that learners consider given settings for learning as personally relevant. The personal perspective implies that learners take ownership and responsibility of their learning processes and of the tools which they use. This perspective allows developing courses and services for personalised learning without taking the individual differences of each learner as a starting point.
We could never control learning – it’s never been a case of choosing between formal or informal, structured or social. We learn through a context sensitive blend of all of these, with greater emphasis given to one mode over another in a multi faceted blend, depending on need. The problem many organisations face is know how to get the right combination for the need.

The problem many organisations face is know how to get the right combination for the need.
Too often we focus on the solution and find justification for it
From here, you can start to see how each of those factors we mapped in our value chain can be supported by different learning mechanisms as part of the Learning Ecosystem – in essence, it becomes the Sales and Marketing team’s learning ecosystem.
A complete Ecosystem solution requires not just gap analysis but appreciative enquiry – focusing on what we think is missing form our toolkit and quickly lead to rash purchases. Our Ecosystem design service provides a complete and holistic vie
So take for example Increased Market Share as a core strategic objective – we can identify those factors that will influence increased market share. In this example, we have kept it at a very high level but you’ll see quite quickly that once you map these factors, you can quickly identify the skills, beahviours, process, policies, systems, data etc that influence these factors. From here, we can identify the learning need and appropriate mechanism to achieve that need – which of course may not be exclusively be a course or formal intervention in each case. Take for example better customer insights – this could require a combination of the establishment of a customer forums and communities to garner better customer insights, formal training on best use of your CRM, change in defined process of product development, better capture of FAQs on customer queries plus a formal learning path on customer service.
