In our rapidly expanding market place in knowledge
transfer and growing intensity in global competition it is imperative that
both employers and employees actively engage in adopting the important
innovations in corporate learning currently taking place. Two key questions
arise as follows:
-
for the employer the question is about how the
company can make use of such learning to sustain and build its
intellectual equity capital to attract new business, retain existing
customers and satisfy investors and other stakeholders
-
for the employee the question is about how one
sustains and develops competencies or personal capital to improve one's
employability and earning power
These may appear to be two very different questions, but
this timely book demonstrates the essential interdependent learning and
earning relationship that should exist if the individual and company are
both to succeed economically and socially. In essence they are both
dependent upon creating value from acquired knowledge through new learning.
The 10 chapters of this book provide a compelling case of
the potential of the corporate university concept at creating knowledge
driven solutions for organic business development. The book discusses the
key aspects in taming that highly dynamic concept to produce a blueprint
code of professional practice where quality lifelong learning can be managed to connect productivity with
quality lifelong earning.
WHO IS THE BOOK FOR?
This book is for employers and employees and their
mentors, coaches and business advisers in the world of work across the
private, public and voluntary sectors.
