LMS

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…

Talk. Let’s chat a bit. As you know, nowadays, there are many places where talking, discussing, exploring, and pushing a narrative can lead to all types of information and disinformation. No one platform is immune from it. On the professional side, you see it with LinkedIn and that thread you still can’t figure out how…

Here is a funny story – tell me if you have heard it before. Two Learning Systems vendors, an LXP and an LMS, walk into a conference. Each of them has a lot of fans, and each is trying to land new clients. They show their respective systems and discuss the benefits and what makes…

How to Guide. I felt that having it in the title would make it clear this is a guide – think the best way approach for your RFP that you will either blast out to vendors (the most common way folks do it – and IMO the worst way) or select a few vendors or…

The data shows that employees – perhaps your own employees are really concerned about AI replacing them. This isn’t from one source, or just one well-known entity espousing their study results, rather it is appearing in multiple studies, and not with just a few employees – but looking at it globally, with thousands of employees…

ERP is a great acronym that very people know. Even people who work at an ERP may have no clue. What they do know and perhaps you do too – are some of the vendors – Workday, SAP and Oracle. Brand name recognition. There are plenty of companies who do not purchase every module that…
