Research Meets Practice #5
Workplace Learning, organizational knowledge creation, and learning innovation to build human capability for future economy
The Lifelong Learning Platform (LLLP), in cooperation with Springer’s International Handbook of Lifelong Learning, launched a new series of webinars to present cutting-edge research on lifelong learning to an interested audience. In a compact format, individual research findings and critical reflections on burning issues, such as the ecology of lifelong-lifewide learning for sustainable generative futures or learning for climate justice will be presented and discussed in the focus of social/political and the economic.
This presentation will discuss the intersection of learning at work and organizational learning and reveal important implications for continuous innovation research. The discussion will explore how recent developments in Industry 4.0 and twenty-first-century competences have led to transformations in both the pace of change in knowledge and the types of new skills and knowledge that are required for individuals to remain competitive and innovative in the workplace. This will further lead to the prominence of tacit knowledge and informal learning as a mode of learning in the workplace. The presentation will focus on tacit knowledge and continuous innovation in organizations – namely, organization knowledge creation, communities of practice, and employee-driven innovation (EDI). Jörg Markowitsch from 3s will discuss the Q&A.
