The term "network learning" is interesting to me.

Why don’t people connect inside their current organization with people formerly in their role?

In the learning they are undertaking?

With people who went to the same school they did?

With those who want to achieve the same career goals?

From a unified profile made visible as the hub of interaction in social learning, the workplace opens up because now instead of people seeing their world as a job role with colleagues and a manager, they see their workplace as a world of connections to people who share their experiences.

For example:
• If I am a new hire, then I may want to connect to recent new hires.
• If am taking on a new role, I can access people across the organization who currently or previously held my role.
• Through “alumni” of different types, I can pursue the learning that was most effective for those before me and I can discover learning experiences that interest me most.

Great post. Has anyone connected the behavior of High Performers to Network Learning behavior?

What we see is that high performers have figured who to ask and what to ask to accelerate their success.

Enabling this is what I think is so exciting about the Social Learning framework
