  • La sfida del "new normal"​

    FORMAZIONE & CAMBIAMENTO - Rassegna trimestrale di teorie e pratiche dell'apprendimento

    Ogni qual volta entro in azienda, ed in particolare quando parlo con i responsabili HR e L&D, quel che spesso osservo è quanto sia necessario diffondere nei processi di capacity building metodologie e strumenti pensati per ottenere il massimo da ciò che è diventato "normale" per le persone (the new normal).
    Ma cosa è diventato "normale" nella vita delle persone? L'osservazione di come noi tutti stiamo cambiando, suggerisce la…

  • Nuovi linguaggi, nuovi modi (e “luoghi”) dell’innovazione e dell’apprendimento nell’impresa in rete

    "Corporate Knowledge Management Nuovi linguaggi, nuovi modi (e “luoghi”) dell’innovazione e dell’apprendimento nell’impresa in rete" - Abstract
    Le conoscenze di cui abbiamo bisogno per lavorare, per risolvere problemi, per migliorare la nostra performance sono oggi sempre di più “ a portata di mano”, sono intorno a noi e spesso molto vicine. Corsi di formazione, database e repository aziendali, manuali e documentazione strutturata, biblioteche elettroniche, siti e portali internet, intranet aziendali sono risorse essenziali, “classiche” e in continua crescita. Ma accanto a queste risorse ve ne sono altre, la cui importanza e ruolo stanno crescendo velocemente e che valorizzano la dimensione sociale dell’apprendere e dell’innovare: si apprende osservando i colleghi, seguendo le indicazioni e attraverso la supervisione di un capo, condividendo idee, esempi e best practice con altri reparti all’interno dell’azienda o con altre realtà esterne, e anche semplicemente mettendo in comune le esperienze di ogni giorno. La sfida delle aziende è oggi sempre più quella di connettere tutte le risorse della conoscenza e renderle disponibili, trasformare l’apprendimento informale in qualcosa di più strutturato, rigoroso e disponibile. Le tecnologie per il networking e per la collaborazione, i social media iniziano ora a creare opportunità di apprendimento e nuovi spazi e linguaggi per l’innovazione a tutti i livelli.

  • Innovazione e Apprendimento, in "Apprendimento e Nuove Tecnologie", Franco Angeli, 2011

    "Apprendimento e Nuove tecnologie",

    Innovation and learning are closely related to human nature and it is difficult to give them unique and comprehensive definitions. Both words refer to the concept of transformation of behavior, ways to deal with the changing process for a better adaptation to the environment. In the past, the two concepts were not always dealt with in a close interdependence: up to twenty years ago, innovation was treated in the disciplines of business and organization and referred mainly to R & D but at the…

    Innovation and learning are closely related to human nature and it is difficult to give them unique and comprehensive definitions. Both words refer to the concept of transformation of behavior, ways to deal with the changing process for a better adaptation to the environment. In the past, the two concepts were not always dealt with in a close interdependence: up to twenty years ago, innovation was treated in the disciplines of business and organization and referred mainly to R & D but at the end of the eighties something starts to change.

    Thanks to the information technology revolution, economists highlighted the role of the diffusive IT technology, capable of permeating all production processes and processes that would have triggered mass usability: the advent of digital technology, already in the seventies, increased the productivity in forms and rates that were dramatically different than in the past. The evolution of information technology and the invention of several devices have also contributed to the widespread dissemination of computational tools for use by novice users as well, that are often directly involved in the development and innovation of specific applications designed for each area.

    The era of “transmediality”, which considers the communication done by user and “through” the user, the construction of new information and of a user experience linked to the creation of "user generated contents" made available to all. The users are at the center of innovation and we are witnessing the convergence of technology and innovation environments on the one hand and learning technologies on the other. Nowadays innovation technologies are the same as learning technologies. And the "places" of learning and innovation are the "same" in the Internet and through the Internet.

    Le imprese sono costrette a modificare dalle fondamenta i principi che hanno sinora ispirato la loro conduzione strategica e operativa, capovolgendo le priorità della 'vecchia economia' e ponendo la conoscenza e il capitale intellettuale al centro del sistema di risorse che consentono all'impresa di svolgere la propria missione con successo.

    ll commercio elettronico rappresenta un fenomeno di eccezionale importanza per l'intero sistema economico, sociale e istituzionale, che sta ora rapidamente evolvendo verso la "società dell'informazione". Un tema di tanta importanza richiede una diffusione quanto più ampia e articolata possibile delle conoscenze dell'e-business: dalla dimensione tecnologica al quadro istituzionale e normativo, dal marketing ai nuovi attori che si affacciano sul mercato. Ma è altrettanto necessario che tale diffusione poggi su una base scientificamente solida, quale gli autori sono in grado di fornire. All'opera è allegato un CD ROM.
