View Article  Study of new trends in learning and performance management
Quick article here.

The key line -

"Data showed that the top four priorities for HR managers today are performance management, skills and competency management, succession planning, and learning management. At the same time, responses indicate that HR managers believe they have the least amount of expertise in these four functional areas. According to the research, only 35% of organisations have any type of automated performance management system and 58% rely on paper based processes. A significant majority – 68% -- of respondents indicated that integration of learning and HR systems is critical or important to their organisations."

That's the problem of course, with performance and skills management systems.  About 60 to 70 percent of the HR departments, talent agents, etc, simply don't have the time to create these jobs and models.  That's why even when there is an organization that is utilizing a learning management system - and they get some performance and competency management piece as part of the package - studies show that 70% of these systems go unused, or at least vastly underutilized.

I've been away for awhile, and haven't posted.  Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Outside of my own practice, I've been one of the watchers of the Integral Wiki. 

What this means is occasionally adding something, and then also occasionally reverting pages. when the wiki version of spam hits the site.

Because of my involvement with Integral Wiki, I have now registered with the main Wikipedia

After doing this, I've now come across a couple of cool WikiProjects. 

One I will point to now, is the Wikiproject for Spirituality and also the Wikiportal for Spirituality.

Both of these come with "To Do" lists, places where people can contribute. 

It's interesting to look through, and I will most likely start double posting anything that I do to the IntegralWiki, back to the main Wiki portal.
