Agility is no longer a buzzword, it's now a business imperative. Apply agile thinking, tools and processes to the learning function with this expert guide written specifically for learning and organizational development (OD) professionals.

Agile L&D explains how to develop an Agile approach to workplace learning. The business context has dramatically changed, so the way to approach specialisms like learning and OD must too. Based on five design principles, the book provides a dedicated toolkit to help you design learning and OD solutions that solve workplace challenges and improve business performance.

How we design work, upskill people and deploy teams is now intrinsically linked with modern business strategy. To continually adapt to a complex business environment, companies need a more fluid movement of people and skills across the organization in order to better reflect customer needs, market opportunities and capability requirements. This book has the answer. Full of tools, tips and frameworks as well as real-world examples from global organizations, this is essential reading for all learning and development, OD and people professionals in this constantly changing area of work. Online resources include templates and infographics
