Hi Anders
very interesting task you have. - "Academy of Learning" - will be the key leaver for any company striving for success. One reason is the complexity of operation from globalization and digitalization, another reason is the ability to organise in a way that people want to work for you :-)
A question that comes to mind is - what is learning in your context?
Henning

Thanks for the awesome comment, Henning.
I tend to define learning as either acquisition of skills, knowledge and attitudes, and/or modification of behavior - the latter being my favourite.
But yes, I must also admit that the organization now has a somewhat understanding of learning being training - as you define. But hopefully the two will mix, as I believe both can be beneficial. We need to both exploit and explore to succeed. And it that relation I always try to remember the 70-20-10-rule.
I will definitely have to look into the hbr-article. Thanks!
And yes, culture is so keen. With the words of Peter Senge, I have to build a learning organization. An organization that sees learning in everything. So coming back to my definition of learning, it must be a culture that changes behavior.
