The concept of “open-source” — that is, software for which the original “source” code is made freely available for others to add on, modify, and improve  — radically changed the way software is developed and has played a large part in enabling the technology boom we see around us today.

But the open-source idea isn’t just for software engineers. Some of the core ideas associated with open-source approaches can offer interesting new directions for L&D teams too.

As decentralization, openness, sharing, and collaboration become the new norm in many organizations, the idea that anyone can share their expertise broadly, and that individuals and teams can access and build on each other’s know-how perfectly encapsulates this concept of ‘open-source learning’ perfectly.

In this presentation, you will learn from the experiences of a technology company on applying the concepts of open-source software development to development of another kind – that of your staff.

Sam will cover:

• The fundamentals of “open-source learning”
• How these relate to knowledge sharing and learning within an organization
• How to make open-source learning happen
• The role of the L&D professional in driving an open-source learning culture

How To Tell A Story With Data & Analytics

If you want to truly engage decision makers on your data findings, you must offer more than BI reporting or data visualization – you must tell a compelling data story.

This trend, data storytelling, is an extension of the now-dominant self-service model of business intelligence (BI), combining data visualization with narrative techniques.

In this data and analytics webinar, James Laurence Richardson (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr Director  Analyst looks at the skills you need and the steps you must take to become a powerful data storyteller.

Discussion Topics:

• What a data story is
• When and how data storytelling should be used
• What new skills and techniques you need to be a data storyteller
