Article of the MonthArticle of the Month for May 2021 is 'Everyone is within learning distance: building skills remotely' – McKinsey
From the abstract
Key McKinsey SMEs examine building skills to succeed for the new remote workplace. The article argues for learning in the new world via practice and application, reinforcement and spacing, intensive and immersive experiences, social learning and collaboration, and motivation and mindsets. In doing so, this will challenge traditional approaches. This suggests that the above learning can only happen successfully when conducted in person, as it is hard to recreate this environment on a virtual basis. The article examines how this perceived barrier can be overcome.
