Building and sustaining an organization which is nimble, adaptable, resilient and future proof is both complex and urgent. Only those with flexible and innovative Learnscapes will succeed.

Learning Ecosystems explains how organizations evolve into LearnScapes where learning techniques are aligned with continuous interaction with the ecosystem they are part of. It explains how to upskill and reskill a workforce continuously in an increasingly collaborative and tech-enabled world. Full of practical guidance and strategic advice, this book covers how to take a lifelong approach to learning in the organization and the core competencies needed for this. It explains what to do when building a value and data-driven learning strategy and discusses the symbiosis of people and technology.

This book explores lean learning, data analytics, learning technologies including artificial intelligence (AI) and the ethics of using these technologies. There is also crucial guidance on how to take a human-centric approach to innovation. Learning Ecosystems demonstrates the value of continuous improvement and offers techniques for a variety of situations including problem analyses, experimentation and algorithmic business thinking. Most importantly, it provides guidance on how to build a learning culture and a learning ecosystem throughout the company. Supported by case studies from companies including Etihad Airways, ING, ESF and FEDEX, this is essential reading from a leading learning innovator who has helped global organizations to rethink their learning strategies to achieve sustained business growth.

Industry Reviews
"Katja Schipperheijn provides a helpful and important deep analysis of an area that is rapidly changing our lives. She explains the history and direction of human and behavioural automation clearly and then gives us a framework that we can apply to learn and adapt - a LearnScape. Creating a LearnScape should be on every executive's agenda." * Julia Cook, CEO, Change Management Group; Deputy Chair of GMC; Chair of Consortium for Street Children-US *
"As we build an innovation ecosystem to find and nurture new ideas, it is vital to feed it with the most appropriate skills and capabilities to drive growth. Adapting to different learning methods and styles is key to helping the ecosystem thrive. Learning from the intelligent symbioses of humans and technology have to offer, provides nimble growth opportunities. The method for continuous improvement presented by Katja Schipperheijn is therefore a useful guide for business leaders who want to innovate together with their team." * Lisa Perkins, Director of Research and Innovation, BT *
"Katja has one of those unique L&D mindsets that can move your thinking forward in steps rather than increments. Learning Ecosystems is an important book for any serious learning professional or executive who wants to grow with their team through the opportunities that digital innovations have to offer in a world of ever accelerating change." * Damien Woods, Chapter Lead - Learning & Growth, 7-Eleven Australia *
"Katja makes a strong case for enabling organization and human development through technology. She takes a fresh look at the latest research in education and the latest technology trends that will develop and amplify humans' abilities. Any leader who wants to unleash the collective experience and knowledge of the organization with engaged employees and wants to meet the challenge of retraining, or nurture a culture of continuous learning, should read Learning Ecosystems." * Dr. Regis Chasse, Founder and Chief Learning Officer, CLO Advisors LLC, Dean The Leadership Institute *
"Access to learning opportunities will be one of the key differentiators in adapting to the rapidly changing world. Opportunities for continuous development can be a scarce resource and are not available to everyone to the same extent. Thanks to the evolution of technology, we can build learning ecosystems to provide access to knowledge for learners around the world. Everyone will have a fair chance to develop and grow and not feel limited by a lack of local offerings." * Sami M. Leppaenen, Learner Experience Innovation Manager, KONE Corporation *
"The turmoil we are going through since the beginning of this century requires companies to grow resilience and people to acquire new skills. In this wonderful book, Katja Schipperheijn shows that competences such as curiosity, openness, optimism, empathy, entrepreneurship, consilience and imagination will make the all the difference needed to thrive, grow and learn. In a world that is becoming increasingly virtual and ever changing, learning architects will find the necessary tools and inspiration to prepare for the future of work." * Stefan van Hooydonk, Founder of the Global Curiosity Institute, Co-founder and Dean, Earth Academy, L&D strategist and Author *
"How does one build a learning organization that constantly collects data, processes it and turns them into actionable information? The answer is simple: understand the science and art of learning and build an organization using those building blocks and dynamics. Connect the dots and create an ecosystem-organization or in other words: create a LearnScape. Katja Schipperheijn has always been passionate about 'learning' and now she has used her scientific understanding of how 'learning' works to describe how to create a LearnScape. This fascinating book is a must-read for everybody that not only wants to be ready for the future, but wants to play an active role in shaping it. Learning Ecosystems is an instant classic, the book as well as the concept." * Rik Vera, International Keynote Speaker, Thought Leader, Business Philosopher, Author, Coach, Consultant *
"Leading companies recruit people who are highly curious and able to learn fast. They create a learning ecosystem that delivers insights into the strategies, processes and tools that make the difference." * Gerhard Gschwandtner, Founder and CEO, Selling Power *
