Upskilling employees : Informal learning tools contribute more to workplace than formal learning methods as employees act autonomously at own pace

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings A study from two Poland discussed how it was essential for employees to constantly “upskill.” It introduced a deep modern learning approach called “behaviour-oriented drive and influential functions of formal and informal learning.” And it also developed the concept of the “Study, Plan, Do, Check, and Act” framework. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
