Presentation Description:

Technology was supposed to make learning better, faster, and easier. But technology-enabled learning has not fulfilled its promise. People are spending as much as five hours per week looking for information. While they learn best from one another, the learning management systems organizations are using do not enable that. Companies want each person to contribute their expertise to the maximum benefit of the whole enterprise but until now there have not been systems that make that possible. What we need is a solution that will increase transparency, improve knowledge sharing, allow end users to determine what is of greatest value to them and harness the collective intelligence of an organization.

This presentation will: 1) Explore a new system for learning and information management that solves the problems that users experience with current technologies and methods. 2) See how RSS can be used to create learning networks and enable powerful personalization and customization, complex filtering and analysis of all kinds of content flowing through an organization. and 3) Look at a prototype of an RSS learning network and two use case scenarios where RSS networks are used for innovation in a large financial services company and for resource and project management at a global engineering firm.

The presentation will look at some specific examples of RSS Learning Networks at Merrill Lynch and some use cases of learning networks for project and resource management.

Winning the Race for Knowledge Worker Productivity

Speaker:  Glen Mohr        
Venue: Merrill Lynch, Instructional Design and Curriculum Development Summit, New Orleans     
Date: March 31, 2004

Here is the presentation I gave with Kathy Goldreich, Director, Merrill Lynch GMI Learning and Development, at the Instructional Design and Curriculum Development Summit, March 2004, in New Orleans.

Presentation Description:

Using peer-to-peer learning to unlock talent and impact the bottom line

Merrill Lynch and The Otter Group transformed a second-year MBA course on Investments at MIT’s Sloan School of Management into a learning network of high potential Merrill Lynch employees who develop new products and services for the firm. Now in its fourth year, the MIT/Merrill Lynch Investments program takes 50 high potential employees each year and runs them through a four-month Investments curriculum and a new product development process. Learning Directors from the Otter Group, working with internal Learning Director Kathy Goldreich at Merrill Lynch, design and manage the adaptation of Professor Andrew Lo’s ideas to real-world business problems. Learning is shared across teams and peer-to-peer. The results: new products and services designed by project teams that have now generated millions in return for Merrill Lynch.
