Leading up to the first in our series of Learning Leader webinars, we surveyed over 260 of SA’s top HR and L&D experts, thought leaders and professionals on their response to learning and development in their organisation since the COVID-19 outbreak. This is what they had to say...
We also asked respondents to advise what their organisations have done to respond to the COVID outbreak that has worked well? It’s good to see that a large number of organisations are taking up the opportunity to learn and embrace innovative ways of working and learning, to connect with colleagues and clients in new ways and provide comfort and support to those who need it.
