Can Informal learning be the next frontier for Organizational Learning and Development? 
 
What started as a video sharing app for teens in China in 2016 quickly got reimagined as TikTok in 2017. In two years it grew to dominate 150 countries and have 75 languages to engage the users. By 2020 April, the app had hooked not just the Gen Z and Millennials but also their parents. The result was 2 billion TikTok downloads by April 2020.
 
In this episode of Unabashed, Neha and Abhijit discuss whether there is something that might change the way we view learning in the corporate world. 
When did you last watch someone bang down the door to enlist themselves in a mandatory training program for compliance? But there are examples of large corporates who have challenged this assumption. Is informal learning the under-leveraged learning opportunity? What needs to work before self-directed learning goes mainstream. 

Try out some of these ideas to encourage informal learning in your business.
