In this episode of The L&D Mindshift Podcast, we explore the emerging potential of AI to drive collective intelligence in organizations. Inspired by Christoph Riedl’s ideas, we examine how AI can move beyond task automation to support shared memory, attention, and decision-making within teams. Could fostering collective intelligence be the next big shift for Learning & Development? We break down the concept through a SWOT analysis, identifying the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of positioning AI as a tool to build smarter, more collaborative teams.

In this episode of The L&D Mindshift Podcast, we dive into Donald Clark's thought-provoking proposal to rebrand Learning & Development as the 'Performance Department.' We discuss why Clark believes L&D needs a sharper focus on measurable outcomes, linking learning directly to productivity and progress. This shift could reshape L&D's role within organizations, elevating it from course delivery to a strategic performance driver. We also conduct a SWOT analysis to explore the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of making performance the core focus of L&D.

In this episode of The L&D Mindshift Podcast, we explore Marc Rosenberg's 2015 perspective on why the term 'learner' is limiting, and why it’s more relevant than ever today in the Generative AI era. We discuss how moving beyond the 'learner' label can empower employees as creators and contributors, transforming workplace development. We also conduct a SWOT analysis to understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of this shift.
