Social & Mobile Learning Get the most out of your workforce

Fast and flexible provisioning and

sharing of content accelerates knowledge

transfer and increases productivity.


Don‘t force the users to live with

what‘s given – create a dynamic

“shareconomy.”

Reduce time and efforts for

searching content, issuing help

desk tickets, or bothering

colleagues with questions.

Support the entire workforce,

and keep those without their

own workstations in mind.

Video-based learning,

combined with small chunks of

knowledge, can help to reach

new “tribals” in the workforce.

Social & Mobile Learning - Rationale

Technology is great but

it’s the people who use it

Make knowledge more

easily available

Respect the entire

workforce

Everyone loves

movies

employees would prefer a job

with less pay but more flexibility

in regards to mobility 4

Workforce Experience and Performance Provide knowledge at the moment of need

decreasing, so in-context help

needs to grow.

Provide what‘s needed when it‘s

needed to maximize motivation

and productivity.

The workforce needs to be

supported whenever needed

without issuing help desk tickets

and bothering colleagues.

When going live, you need to

assure that the workforce’s

gaps identified during training

are closed in time for day one of

the change.
