Accelerating at the Speed of Light: Tech Trends and Challenges in 2021

Data from a recent McKinsey Global Survey of executives suggest that the COVID-19 crisis is a technology tipping point of historic proportions and that more changes will be required as the economic and human situation evolves. This half-day virtual event will explore what this extreme acceleration has meant for learning and development, and what the future might look like as we slowly emerge from the global pandemic. Featuring panels, interviews, TED-style talks and networking with chief learning officers and learning practitioners from the banking and financial services and technology sectors, discussion will focus on the increased reliance on technology for L&D, the challenges leaders face in finding (and gaining budget approval for) the right tools for their organizations, and the difficulties of training a multi-generational workforce to use those technologies.
