According to Charles Jennings and the Internet Time Alliance, most learning doesn't happen in a formal structured organized (training) way. Most thought leaders agree that some 70 percent of learning comes from unstructured experiential moments. If learning managers can encourage, capture, and share this learning to the benefit of the wider organization, they can really improve results. Even if you don't buy into the 70:20:10 possibility (why wouldn't you?), you can't live in the learning world these days and not realize that both social media and social learning present massive opportunities to improve learning efficiency and results.

Given the massive amount of information and resources available for our people to learn, it can be helpful to have someone filtering, contextualizing and sharing information for different target groups. The skill of curation is becoming more and more important in the learning world.
