I know this will sound really weird coming from someone who designs and delivers training for a living but, all learning opportunities do not have to be training. In fact, training can have a greater impact when it’s delivered in concert with other learning opportunities. It’s about bringing the right methods together to create the best experience for the learner. I’ve never worked somewhere with a formal training department.

One of the workplace topics being discussed with more frequency is employee burnout. It’s commonly included as one of the contributing factors to employee disengagement. But what exactly causes burnout? During the Massachusetts Conference for Women , I had the opportunity to attend a panel discussion specifically focused on burnout. It was interesting because the group talked about stress and burnout in a unique way. They said that stress is something we have on a regular basis.

Digital is disrupting every part of an organization's value chain at a record pace, creating a critical need to transform operations and employees' ways of working.
