Key Take Aways from this Episode
Content reach is no longer enough—curation and quality has become the name of the game. How is your content attached to other content? How are you validating that this is the best way of conveying information, learning, skills and performance?
Overly centralized L&D teams miss opportunities to maximize the impact of training because they will naturally find it more challenging to discover if cross-functional training can find other audiences throughout the organization. A hybrid approach helps to ensure training efforts are not duplicated and existing content is maximized.

But there comes a time when it’s more efficient and beneficial to the quality of the end product to accept that outside expertise is needed to create the best learning experience possible.
