As AI becomes more embedded in sales and marketing, many leaders are asking the same question: How do we continue to drive results as technology accelerates and sales expectations keep rising?  

AI in learning and development (L&D) presents transformational opportunities for organizations to create and deliver high-impact learning at scale. However, this fast evolving technology does not come without its share of risks and dead ends. While successful applications of AI improve the efficiency and reach of learning programs, poor implementation choices can lead to wasted investment, security issues and ineffective learning experiences. The key to success lies in approaching AI strategically to solve specific learning challenges. Leading organizations are succeeding by focusing on:   Clear learning objectives Augmenting rather than replacing human expertise Maintaining strong data governance Measuring impact on both learning and business outcomes This eBook, based on a webinar featuring NovoEd and produced by Brandon Hall Group™, provides a practical framework for understanding where AI can truly add value to your learning programs and how to implement it effectively while avoiding common pitfalls. In the webinar, NovoEd CTO and Co-Founder Farnaz Ronaghi shared insights on AI in learning, drawing from her experience designing the platform at Stanford and her research on collaborative learning environments.

Recent studies are encouraging regarding the evaluation of talent development at the impact and ROI levels. For example, a major study showed that 43% of learning managers report that their business goals and learning goals are very aligned (that's impact). Also, 46% indicate that they are successful at comparing the costs and benefits of a learning program (that's ROI). Other trends indicate the improvement in measurement, pushing it beyond traditional measurement of reaction, learning, and sometimes application. While the driver for ROI is still the C-suite, more organizations are being proactive and getting ahead of the request. In the midst of all the positive news, there is still the nagging issue that evaluation at the impact and ROI levels appears to be difficult and time-consuming.
