Using OD to shift from learning delivery to organizational impact

from Learning at Large

Traditional L&D approaches often focus on solving isolated skills or knowledge gaps. But what if the real barriers to performance sit elsewhere in the organization? In this episode of Learning at Large, Chris Baldwin, founder of Performance Redesigned and organizational performance consultant, explores what L&D can borrow from organizational development (OD) practices to create more sustainable business impact. Drawing on his experience across both learning and organizational development, Chris explains why learning initiatives often fail when organizations aren't ready to support them, and why systems thinking, organizational readiness, and leadership culture are becoming increasingly important for modern L&D teams.
