Learning – The Foundation for Agility and Sustainable Performance THURSDAY 6 JULY | BERLIN EUROPEAN MASTERCLASS Building sustainable performance means organisations have to be able to adapt at speed to changes in their environment. Therefore the capacity of organisations to learn and reinvent themselves is a critical success factor, and also has profound implications for the learning function. At this masterclass we will explore the latest thinking in the learning field and ask how learning functions need to evolve in order to build the capability for organisational learning and agility.
why attend? Book your place at this European masterclass and benefit from: • The opportunity to challenge your thinking on how L&D departments need to evolve in response to key learning trends, such as self-directed learning, social learning and the impact of neuroscience and behavioural economics on our understanding of how adults learn. • The space to get away from the day to day and explore the latest thinking in the field of corporate learning. • Practical case studies from leading organisations exploring how the culture of learning is changing in their organisations, and how their L&D functions are contributing to organisation agility and improved business performance. • A day of formal and informal peer networking where you can build valuable and meaningful connections within the HR field and explore how other companies are dealing with the same challenges you are facing.

“CRF seems to get it consistently right about what the key topics are, that we as HR professionals are wrestling with. In my opinion, their research papers are highly relevant and valuable and the conferences attract people at the highest level in HR. Their European arm is also proving to be a useful networking forum for like-minded individuals.” JENNIFER MONON, SENIOR HR DIRECTOR, ING
