Introduction
The landscape of Learning and Development (L&D) is undergoing significant transformation, largely driven by the emergence of generative AI. In our free downloadable paper HERE , we explore the potential impact of AI on L&D roles and summarize what we see as the Six essential skills required for Learning and Development, Organization Development, and Talent Development professionals in harnessing generative AI.
From traditional training manuals to digital learning platforms, L&D has evolved rapidly. Recent global events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have accelerated the demand for digital learning solutions. Virtual classrooms, webinars, and Learning Experience Platforms (LXPs) have become integral to modern L&D strategies. However, budget constraints remain a challenge for organizations.
