Training Industry Magazine - Winter 2022 - 3

FROM THE
EDITOR
THE FUTURE IS NOW
It's a new year - and that means new
content! This Winter 2022 edition of
Training Industry Magazine kicks off
our 2022 editorial calendar, and we're
excited to share a few changes. As
you flip through this edition, you will
notice articles on a variety of topics,
as opposed to one central theme. With
so many important topics to address,
we wanted to broaden our focus and
touch on a variety of challenges and
trends in each issue, so we're moving
away from themed issues this year. We
are also shifting to a quarterly cadence
- but with more articles in each issue!
So, that means you will still receive
the same amount of great content that
you've come to expect from Training
Industry Magazine this year.
LEARNING LEADERS
HAVE NOT ONLY
EARNED A SEAT
AT THE DECISIONMAKING
TABLE - THEY
ARE LEADING THE
CONVERSATION.
This edition is packed full of great
content, including articles on
building
equity
into
remote
work
and hybrid workplaces, increasing
speed to proficiency, creating a
culture of coaching, leading digital
transformation, the power of creativity
in learning and the intersection of
learning and development (L&D) and
diversity, equity and inclusion.
In the current business climate,
organizations are grappling with
The Great Resignation, prompting
business leaders to reevaluate their
organizational culture and how
they attract and retain talent. Our
cover story examines the shift in the
employee-employer relationship
and how embracing a human-centric
approach to work and learning is

necessary for organizations to thrive
in the post-pandemic environment.
The challenges over the past few
years have disrupted the way we work
and learn, to say the least. But learning
leaders have risen to meet those
challenges and proved their value as
strategic business partners. Learning
leaders have not only earned a seat at
the decision-making table - they are
also leading the conversation. They
are helping organizations navigate
ongoing ambiguity and change,
leveraging training to build resilient
and adaptive employees.
This is an exciting time in the training
industry, and our editorial team is
dedicated to providing the content
and resources that learning leaders
need to deliver impactful training. As
always, we love to hear your thoughts,
so please reach out to our team and let
us know what's on your mind.
While the path forward may be unclear,
focusing on employee well-being and
creating a more human-centric workplace
is imperative. However, learning leaders
can't shoulder this responsibility alone.
Organizations must commit to the
development of their employees -
both personally and professionally -
and this requires support at all levels
and functions.
