11:30 AM Keynote Panel: The Operating Model Crisis: Why Companies Can't Build Skills Fast Enough and What the Best L&D Leaders Are Doing Differently

Despite record investment in corporate training, many organizations fail to keep pace with the capability demands their business strategy requires — and the problem is not budget, it is architecture. The L&D functions closing this gap have stopped publishing courses and started building dynamic enablement systems that put the right capability in front of the right person at the exact moment of performance need. Three CLOs who have made this shift share what it required to leave the old model behind and what became possible once they did.

- Move from a publishing model, where L&D creates content and waits for learners to find it, to a dynamic enablement model where capability is delivered in the flow of work without requiring a learner to seek it out

- Redesign the L&D operating model around performance outcomes rather than training completions, and building the internal credibility that comes from speaking the language of business results

- Address the gap between learning something and doing it differently on the job, because this distinction is where most programs fail and where the most significant organizational capability gains are waiting

- Connect workforce capability strategy to the business planning cycle so that L&D is anticipating organizational needs rather than perpetually chasing them after the gaps have already become visible
