The choice is stark: harness both L&D and Customer education teams to build innovative, resilient methods of sharing the living embodiment of learning as it is embedded into work —or slide into irrelevance.

Working together, insight can be shared,and both teams can enhance products and develop more effective organizations.You need to take a holistic approach by interrogating the root of the problems. Become an expert on AI innovations and seriously consider the future of learning across the employee and customer space. You have a unique perspective; use it to great effect.
