What is your job this morning?
- To share ideas around our vision
I appreciate your generosity. What act of manual dexterity will you also be performing?
- Positioning the change programme
With what aim, of an aeronautical relief-bringing variety?
- So that it lands well
From whence are we beginning?
- A good foundation
In what provocatory surroundings will we find ourselves in the next year?
- A challenging environment
What will we do to this challenging environment?
- Respond to it
To what must our learning be closely aligned?
- Business needs
What should the method of propulsion of our learning strategy be?
- It should be driven by the needs of the business
What propulsive activity should our learning, in turn, carry out?
- It should drive business results
Where will this ‘business’ be found?
- At the customer interface
What unitary outlet, of an arresting nature, will our new website become?
- A one-stop shop
What will this shop offer, provide, promote, make possible?
- Access
Access to what?
- All your learning and development needs
What will we be serving up to meet these needs?
- Media rich content
In what easily masticated form will these needs be met?
- Bite size chunks
What basic physics work will be executed by our social learning strategy?
- It will leverage the collective knowledge of the workforce
In what tubular repositories does this collective knowledge currently reside, out of which we will pry it?
- Silos
That will require a lot of thought. Where will I do this thinking?
- Outside the box
That, sir, is nothing but a cliché. Go away.
