The Advantages of a Project-Based L&D Consulting Framework

Situation: CLOs Must Keep Their Employees Well Trained Despite a Soft Economic Environment

In good or bad economic times, one measure of a well-run corporation is the contribution that its employees make to growing the business, satisfying the needs of the marketplace, and supporting customers with exceptional service. These activities require an enterprise to invest in high-quality learning and development (L&D) programs that continuously sharpen employee capabilities.

During slow economic periods when corporate budgets are trimmed, Chief Learning Officers (CLOs) are in the difficult position of maintaining mission-critical training programs for their employees in a more cost-effective fashion.

Problem: Maintaining Control and Preserving Corporate Culture Using Outsourced Consultants

As CLOs look outside the organization for qualified L&D expertise, they face uncertainty in adequately measuring external resources. Corporate culture is an essential part of enterprise training curricula, and many CLOs question the ability of an external resource to understand and deliver internal cultural messages with the same level of quality as that of an internal training department. The failure of an external resource to be flexible and allow a degree of CLO control-two principles essential in any successful L&D training initiative-generates mixed results.
