Episode 5: From Learning to Performance: Should L&D Become the 'Performance Department'?

In this episode of The L&D Mindshift Podcast, we dive into Donald Clark's thought-provoking proposal to rebrand Learning & Development as the 'Performance Department.' We discuss why Clark believes L&D needs a sharper focus on measurable outcomes, linking learning directly to productivity and progress. This shift could reshape L&D's role within organizations, elevating it from course delivery to a strategic performance driver. We also conduct a SWOT analysis to explore the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of making performance the core focus of L&D.
