Collaborative Learning explains how to leverage the knowledge and
experience of existing employees to upskill the entire workforce.
This practical guide explains what collaborative learning is, what the
benefits are and why it is needed in a nimble, fast-moving business
world. It also explains the science behind shared expertise and how to
foster this, how collaborative learning can be used to combat low
learner engagement and employee burnout as well as how collaborative
learning can be used on the full employee journey from pre-boarding and
onboarding through to promotion and progression. This book also explains
why collaborative learning is not a top-down cascade of information from
the most senior employee to the most junior. Instead it is an inclusive
approach to learning across functions and teams, across hierarchies and
across job titles or tenure.
This book is full of expert discussion about why collaborative learning
is a culture enhancer and contains advice for overcoming common
obstacles when making collaborative learning part of a company's
learning strategy. Packed with case studies and examples from global
firms who have implemented and benefitted from collaborative learning
including Google, Tesla, McDonald's, Lego, Haribo, LVMH and Mercedes,
this book is for all L&D professionals who are looking to embed
collaborative learning in the workplace but aren't sure where to start.
