Vision 2025: Learning Systems Transformation with AI
With the increase usage of AI in learning systems, whether they are an LMS, LXP, Learning Platform, a combo of LMS/LXP, Talent Development system, Mentoring platform, Coaching platform, or Sales Enablement Platform, where the whole focus is on sales training, or some other learning system that doesn’t want to call themselves any of the above…
Building a Strong E-Learning Foundation for your employees: Essential First Steps
There is an assumption, with too many vendors, that anyone reaching out to them for a learning system, regardless of type, has a strong foundation for an e-learning (aka online learning) program. Equally, they believe these individuals, with their unique roles and responsibilities, have or know that this foundation is crucial. Instead, many folks are…
Maximizing Enterprise Learning Effectiveness
Reading this post – here are the three takeaways: Enterprise staffing should stay lean, not bloated. Even at 50,000+ users, 2-3 administrators (one senior, others limited-scope) is enough — and one instructional designer often suffices up to 10,000 users, two beyond that, especially with modern authoring tools. Stop relying solely on aggregators — go direct…
AI Inudation – Know the Questions to ask
It’s that time of year when folks flock to trade shows like LTUK and ATD. A quick perusal of exhibitors shows many with some form of AI. AI video creators. AI transformation of content.

The LMS – Let’s Set The Record Straight
Deep thinking question. Can you think or name one SaaS or non-SaaS solution where the market for that solution overwhelmingly believes it is only Legacy and thus an antiquated offering best found in the diggings of Troy; or outdated, non-useful because it is called “X” and thus the entire industry of said “X” is therefore…

Real-World Transformation of Higher Education through Skills-Based and AI Literacy
Remote Learner. On a scale of one to 10, where one is the worst word you can come up with to describe online learning in the education sector, aka EdTech, and 10 is where the word you should have used to describe it, education, and I’m looking at you, colleges and universities, scored a one.…
Coming Soon – Skill Platforms from your Learning System Provider
Automatic Pot Stirrers. Until yesterday, I had no idea this even existed, and only learned about it (a learning experience) from an Uncommon Goods catalog. I saw it, and thought this is a clever idea. I then did what folks who see products that think “maybe I’ll buy it” go online to do comparision pricing.…
2nd Trend – Price Wars 2023
Before diving into this week’s post, many of you saw on my LinkedIn thread that I suffered another concussion. One minute I was thinking about my recent trip to Mexico, and the next, I heard/felt the back of my head hitting my cement driveway (and yes, I had a CT scan – all good). The…
Mentoring with E-Learning (Q/A)
A lot of people think coaching is the same as mentoring, and that by having coaching in their learning system or buying a coaching platform will suffice for their employees. What if though, they are missing the bigger picture? What if they are unaware that they are two different modalities, with one truly empowering employee…
