Developing a broader perspective for learning seems to me to be vital to all organisations. As the pace of change increases and value-add increasingly comes from knowledge, having a sustainable strategy for learning becomes even more critical.

But at the same time, globalisation of business and mergers and acquisitions make companies more distributed and diverse, with strong pressures on managing margins and reducing costs of operation.
