It’s not hard to be overwhelmed by the wealth of content available today. Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data 1. That’s equivalent to 10 million compact discs that when stacked, would equal the height of 4 Eiffel towers 2. But the explosion of both content and digital technology hasn’t actually increased productivity. In fact, content searches cost companies over $14,000 per worker and nearly 500 hours per worker every year 3.
So how can you break through the noise? The most successful CLOs have begun harnessing the power of all learning experiences through curation, and more importantly, context. Curation and context powers learning in a variety of ways that can help you and your learners make sense of the plethora of information and reduce barriers to creating a culture of continuous learning.
