Addressing the Talent Gap through Organizational Capacity Development

As the rate of change increases, organizations must develop their capacity to adapt. Multi-national organizations operate across both organizational and national cultures that impact both the rate and the manner in which the organization changes. This session will present findings from a cross-cultural comparison of studies of the learning culture. Findings from this study may enable organizations to identify ways to grow their own talent by creating a learning culture. The session concludes by identifying emerging challenges including creating virtual group and organizational learning cultures, globalization, diversity, and the talent needed to foster group and organizational learning in this changing organizational context.
