Adapting Learning in the Time of COVID-19: Insights From the Frontlines in China
Wednesday, May 13, 2020 · 4:00 p.m.
ABOUT THIS WEBINAR
During the last four months, talent development and learning departments across China were forced to reorganize their daily operations and adopt new, more agile ways of working to achieve continuity in their operations. Following months of lockdown and a work-from-home mandate, China is now beginning to slowly relax many of its restrictions. What can we learn from China’s experience?
Informa and ATD are partnering to host a 60-minute multi-sector panel discussion to discuss how to adapt learning in the time of COVID-19 based on insights from the frontlines in China. Featuring Chief of Learning Officers and directors of training from Cisco, AstraZeneca, and Kohler K&B (Kitchen & Bath), this expert panel will draw from their personal experiences of successfully leading their teams through uncertainty as well as share their TD best practices to ensure business continuity and prepare employees to return to the workplace.
Wei Wang, senior director of ATD Global at the Association for Talent Development will facilitate this interactive discussion among key experts responsible for delivering successful training and learning solutions during the COVID-19 outbreak in China:
Victoria Wu, Head of HR, Cisco
Edward Tu, Dean and Executive Director, AstraZeneca University
Jenny Wu Yan, Director of HR, Kohler K&B (Kitchen & Bath) China
Moderator: Wei Wang, CPTD, Senior Director, ATD Global
