Jay Cross examines decision making on learning at work, and gives the lie to some myths about the use of business metrics.
Every business decision is made with less than perfect information, and every decision entails taking a risk. Every business decision is made with less than perfect information, and every decision entails taking a risk. MAKING BUSINESS DECISIONS: THE HEART AND THE HEAD

Driven by demand
Human Capital Institute is hosting a webinar by Dave Wilkins and Jay Cross entitled Put “Learning Demand” in the Drivers Seat .
By focusing on the demand side (what learners need) they can facilitate the biggest part of the learning experience-informal learning. While informal learning is spontaneous it is not as informal as it may initially appear. Organizations that focus on the supply side of the training they provide are looking at the wrong side of the equation. It means orchestrating informal tools to be available in the context of work

Follow the Leaders: Sharing Jay Cross' Collected Wisdom
The recent Online Educa International Conference on Technology Supported Learning and Training featured a stream of fascinating workshops in and around informal learning that was organized and facilitated by Jay Cross (author of Informal Learning: Rediscovering the Natural Pathways That Inspire Innovation and Performance .) Today, Jay kindly sent around to participants of his workshop stream a wonderful set of links to all the rich content and out-front thinkers who contributed to his sessions and said, "Feel free to pass it to others." I attended a number of the workshops in this stream, that started with a session called "The Great Training Robbery" and included others such as "The New Era of Corporate Learning Unconference" and a Pecha Kucha Mini-Master Class (my first exposure to this cool presentation technique).

The future of the training department
by Harold Jarche and Jay Cross
It’s premised on the beliefs that management has access to the necessary strategic information and knowledge. Researcher and analyst, Jon Husband, says that wirearchy is, “a dynamic two-way flow of power and authority based on information, knowledge, trust and credibility, enabled by interconnected people and technology”. Prior to the 20th Century, training per se did not exist outside the special needs of the church and the military. Now the training department may be at the end of its life cycle.

Informal Learning and the Transfer of Learning: How Managers Develop Proficiency
Via Jay Cross, an older article about transfer of learning . The study suggests…
…managers learn mostly from informal learning, that proficiency is the product of informal learning, and that metacognitive knowledge and self-regulation skills moderate informal learning and the transfer process.

The Form of Informal
The words 'formal' and 'informal' are used in distinct senses. In one sense, something is 'formal' or 'informal' according to whether it forms some part of a recognition infrastructure - the system of classes, programs and institutions that constitute our certificate and degree granting structure. What complicates the matter is that the criticism - 'how can somebody write a book about informal learning' misses the mark in both senses. Clark Aldrich, as cited by Tony Karrer , writes, "Can one criticize formal learning models in a book? Isn't a book the epitome of what

Connecting ideas with communities
I use the chasm model to explain my professional work of 1) seeing what is ready to cross the chasm by 2) staying connected to the innovators & being an early adopter so that 3) I can help mainstream organizations. Mavens are the senders and receivers of information. For example, informal learning in the organization was an idea five years ago. It’s a good graphic summary of my consulting practice.
Five years ago I looked at a couple of models (Rogers & Gladwell) in the Dummies Guide to Change and came up with a model on how you might be able to effect
