Content isn’t the problem anymore
Context is.

6. Self: workers can choose and track things of interest to themselves
Machine: algorithms in learning tech are enabled to target content for workers
Social: workers can find, access and share content with peers in and out of the org
Traditional: L&D and other SMEs curate content for the org.
We're not curating yet
How is curation enabled in your organization?

Traditionally…
Information & development
moved from top to bottom
of the organization
Orgs had a
monopoly on
information and
development
Work was different –
required less innovation
and adaptation

Workers often know
more than managers

Other options exist for

Innovation and process

Proliferation of content has led to two key challenges:
68%
34%
32%
23%
16%
12%
Overwhelming volume of information
makes it difficult to notice and keep track
of useful information
Lack of effective tools (such as search)
makes it difficult to find the most useful
information
Frequent change of information
makes it difficult to find the most
current information
Inconsistency of information formats or
sources makes it difficult to use /
comprehend new information
Dynamic nature of job roles makes it
difficult to find sufficiently targeted or
relevant information
Job roles or conditions make it
difficult to access sources of
information
1
The problem
is “context”
not “content”
2
Consistency
and
standards
badly needed

Trends we’re seeing:
• L&D functions approach curation traditionally
• Some are enabling workers to curate their own
development
• Fewer are utilizing machines to aid with curation
(or at least recognize that they do)
• Curation role combined with other L&D roles
How’re we doing?

Content is not the problem.
Context is. And curation is
only part of the solution:
1. Diversify the experiences
2. Distill the opportunities
3. Do more than just curate
4. Divide and conquer
