Which tools are
effective in self-directedness?
How to stimulate
self-directedness?
Can we make self-directedness
mandatory?
Do we have to
control self-directedness?
How to organize
demand-led L&D?
How to balance
employer and
employee interests?
Who is the primary
customer of HR ?
Employer or
employee?
