In this episode of the podcast, my guest is Gianpiero Petriglieri, who is the Associate Professor of Organisational Behaviour at INSEAD, and an expert on leadership and learning in the workplace.Gianpiero has chaired The World Economic Forum’s Global Agenda Council on new models of leadership and is listed among the 50 most influential management thinkers in the world by Thinkers 50. His work explores how and where people development sustains the personal foundations and professional abilities to exercise leadership mindfully, effectively and responsibly.Gianpiero’s studies highlight the psychological, social and cultural functions of leadership development and his teaching methods provide an example of how to perform those functions purposely for the benefit of individuals, organisations and society at large. His research has appeared in academic journals, media and business journals, like the Harvard Business Review, where five of his essays have been included among the ideas that shaped management in the last decade.In our conversation, Gianpiero and I discuss: Why organisations are struggling to embed a culture of lifelong learning The differences between cognitive learning and socio-emotional learning and why organisations need to make room for both The role of technology in supporting the development of skills Examples from companies like Schneider Electric and Lego who have developed culture and environments where learning can thrive The role of the Chief Learning Officer and whether it should sit within HR or report directly to the CEOThis episode is a must listen for anyone interested or involved in learning, skills and leadership development, either from an individual or company perspective. So that is Business Leaders, CHROs, Chief Learning Officers and anyone in a People Analytics, Workforce Planning or HR Business Partner role.Support for this podcast is brought to you by Degreed.
