Since 2014, the L&D Global Sentiment Survey has been a barometer of what’s hot and what’s not in the Learning & Development profession, guiding people development professionals towards the trends that their peers are most concerned about. In this episode, Donald H Taylor takes a deep dive into the recently published report and explores in conversation what we should all be taking note of.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Because it is self-selecting most of the people who fill out the survey are innovators.
It looks at what is hot in L&D, what is likely to take hold and what is likely to fall by the wayside.
This year AI dominated, but many are overwhelmed and unsure how to use it.
AI is good at content, which frees up time for L&D to do more in other areas. 
Yet, there is likely to be a backlash against AI-generated content because initially, people will be awful at using it.
Lots of people are missing the fact that AI can play a role in coaching and mentoring.
Collaborative and social learning have slipped down the list.
There are geographical differences, what they are and why they exist is discussed.

BEST MOMENTS

'There's somewhere between the wisdom of the crowd and the derangement of the mob.'

'Personalization is one of the obvious and very valuable implementation points for AI.'

'The top four for 2024 … are all things which are fuelled by good use of data.'
