When we first became a venture-backed company, one of our first angel investors gave me this advice: board meetings are for you, the CEO. They’re not for the investors. It’s a chance for you to share the things that you’re proud of and things that are or are not working well and ask for advice on the areas where some extra input would be helpful.

In today's workforce, employers emphasize training and reskilling opportunities as they look to retain talent. The modern professional learner requires a platform that prioritizes customization and communication, especially in a hybrid landscape, yet the current learning ecosystem is managed by legacy platforms that are not equipped to address these needs. To remain competitive, organizations must replace their legacy learning management systems in response to the growing demand to reskill hundreds of professionals with increasingly more technical skills.

This suggests that legacy learning platforms are not equipped to meet the growing requirements that modern learners expect. Therefore, a different approach is required to properly reskill professionals, one that addresses the importance of communications, collaboration, and … [Read more...] about Why Organizations Must Evolve Their Legacy Learning Management Systems
