Unlocking Employee Potential and the Future of Corporate Learning

In the evolving landscape of corporate learning and development, innovative digital solutions have become paramount. With 44% of employees agreeing that they would switch jobs for better professional development opportunities, the stakes are higher than ever. The ability to continuously learn, reskill, and upskill is reshaping the future of work. In this era of rapid technological change and transformation, how can organizations efficiently foster a culture of continuous learning?

On today’s episode of The Future of Education, host Michael Horn, explores this core question with our esteemed guest, Marc Ramos, the Chief Learning Officer at Cornerstone OnDemand. Through this insightful conversation, Ramos shares his experiences and the transformational journey that has brought him to his current role. The discussion dives into the fascinating intersections of corporate training, technology, and personal development.

Marc Ramos stresses the importance of innovative learning technologies in enabling organizations to foster a culture of continuous learning. Citing Cornerstone’s platform, he elucidates how it empowers learners from their hire to retire journey. He frames this within the context of Cornerstone’s Talent Experience Platform (TXP), a suite of solutions that facilitates skills development and career progression.

“The traditional LMS, the LXP, and the opportunity marketplace — these are three predominant aspects of our solution,” Ramos explains. “It’s really about how do we build out those experiences bottoms up, employee or worker up? So how do we democratize or actually how do we provide that level of control and accountability to the average worker?”

The conversation also touches on…

● The transition from formal education to corporate learning.

● The concept of continuous learning and the shift from the “40-4” model to lifelong learning.

● Cornerstone OnDemand’s evolution and its innovative Talent Experience Platform.

“The goal is really benefiting the world at a larger scale, and Cornerstone’s reach of over 100 million learners provides that opportunity,” Marc remarks, highlighting the importance of maximizing impact in the corporate learning field.

Marc Ramos, a respected figure in the corporate learning domain, has built a diverse and extensive career with prominent companies such as Google, Novartis, Accenture, Microsoft, and Oracle.
