Abstract:

Purpose – Reviews the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoints practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.

Design/methodology/approach – This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings – Many human resources (HR) managers have for several years now adopted e-learning strategies to tackle the challenges of lifelong learning in their organizations. As with many new techniques, they sometimes tend to be focused on to the exclusion of everything else, especially when it involves the great firm's great panacea – the internet.

Practical implications – Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.

Originality/value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
