So, you’ve worked hard to create a great corporate training department with a lot of resources for workers. You pat yourself on the back and say, “Now THAT’s a culture of learning!” And sure enough, when employees are working on a project and need immediate answers, they turn to… Google.
Wait! What about all this content you’ve spent months collecting? Why would they go to a virtual stranger for answers? What about you?
There’s a simple reason that people look to Google for answers: The answers are right there, any time, easily accessible, just waiting for them. A learning culture means employees are constantly learning, and they don’t want to slow down to find answers. Google is a part of their workflow. They move seamlessly from their work to Google, then back again. Can you say the same about your employee training knowledge base?
