CEOs are worried about whether organizations can survive. They see employee talent and skills as critical to organizational success. As learning professionals we should be a key leverage point, yet we are not as empowered as we need to be. We often feel frustrated, pushed into the role of order taker, marginalized as course creators - when we know we can do so much more.
