About the Workshop: 

Has the future already caught up with us? Yes is the answer for more than 90% of executives worldwide. Yet they seem in no hurry to invest in innovation and the added value that the symbiosis between humans and machines will bring to the growth of their employees, the organisation and by extension society. 

This exclusive Masterclass / Workshop supports the essential factors that are part of an nimble strategy to survive as an organisation in an ever faster changing world.

The mix of masterclass and executive workshop ensures that after a day of interaction, participants themselves come up with concrete and implementable proposals for continuous improvement that they can deploy in their own organisations.

The approach is based on MIT’s Algorithmic Business Thinking, adapted to learning ecosystems from a holistic framework where opportunities are mutually reinforcing and increase commitment from all stakeholders.

We start from the different problems that participants use as introductions, yet the focus is on generating opportunities by looking at the possibilities that the symbiosis between humans and machines has to offer. In doing so, we also transcend silo thinking by relating strategy, HR and Marketing to learning.

Participation is only possible for CEO/COO/CXOs or Senior Executives/Leaders in Innovation, HR and L&D after selection so that participants reinforce each other and experience how all ecosystem stakeholders have an impact on growth.

Structure of the workshop

PART 1: Why we need to invest in Learning Ecosystems now. 

• Starting from a root-cause analysis, we approach the problems current organisations are facing to then identify opportunities for improvement. 
• We draw inspiration from innovations and cases that to many still seem a distant future. This accelerated innovation and the impact on being human is the basis for building human-centric and future-oriented strategies. 
• Besides technological innovations, we look at other influences that underpin the urgency of nimble learning strategies such as the purpose and data-driven organisation, platform economy, cross-functional working and teams and employer branding to attract and retain talent 
• Current widely used performance management methods in an increasingly technological ecosystem often seem no longer sustainable. We therefore look at some inspiring cases that link, among other things, 5moments of need or confidence-based learning to AI 
• Organisations do not change in 1 day, but go through several steps in the learning maturity model. Recognising these steps and linking them to lean learning often provides inspiration for quick win improvement projects. 
• Why do many innovation projects go wrong and how to prevent that with the Habit of Improvement method for continuous improvement in 5 steps – Discovery, Burning platform, Path to improvement, Joint execution, Future growth and improvement. 

PART 2: Getting started with the building blocks for a Nimble Learning Ecosystem . 

• The focus in this part of the workshop is to master the techniques yourself to lead a continuous improvement workshop in your organisation. 
• The problem statements we defined at the start of the day form the basis for the opportunities we will develop further in a Design Thinking workshop using idea charters. 
• Starting from the principles of Algorithmic Business Thinking, we approach the opportunities holistically involving all stakeholders of the ecosystem and looking for connections between the opportunities 
• We will learn that innovation is only possible when we prioritise correctly and when we approach innovation as a continuous improvement process where everything can be questioned. 
• The most important step of this workshop is to prepare for the burning platform meeting with the executive team to convince everyone in your organisation of your ideas.
