“The Future of Learning in London:

3 Highlights of the HR & Learning Technologies 2023″

The Learning Technology 2023 in London was a groundbreaking event that showcased the latest developments in learning and technology. The event attracted a wide range of diverse vendors who wowed the attendees with innovative solutions.

In this blog post, we take a quick look at the exciting experiences and trends we witnessed at the conference. 

AI & LMS

This fair was the perfect place to experience the latest trends and technologies. One of the biggest trends at the show was the integration of artificial intelligence and chatbots into LMS platforms.

Many vendors showed how AI and chatbots can be used to create personalized learning content and improve interaction with learners. Particularly impressive were the vendors that had integrated Chat GPT, which made communication with participants more natural and intuitive.

Gamification: cartoon characters in e-learnings

Another interesting variation was the use of comic characters in e-learning. These characters can be used via gamification to make complex learning content easier to understand and to create a pleasant learning atmosphere.

Some providers have even started to offer customizable courses that allow participants to upload their own learning content and create their own courses.

Virtual Reality

Another area that had a strong presence at the show was virtual reality technology. Vendors showed how to offer their platforms and support to shoot and create VR videos.

While some vendors offered VR games, others focused on helping participants create their own VR experiences.

Colorful & Promising

All in all, Learning Technology 2023 in London was a resounding success. One of the highlights of the show was the offbeat advertising used by some of the vendors to grab the attention of the visitors.

Beer taps, sushi, stormtroopers from Star Wars, stuffed animals, and even lifelike robots (as you can see above) were used to increase interaction. Some vendors also offered live demonstrations of their products, showcasing the power and capabilities of their technologies.

The future of learning has already dawned

Virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and gamification are just some of the innovations that will revolutionize the way we learn. The variety of vendors and technologies presented at the show showed that the future of learning and education is very promising.

The show offered a glimpse into the latest trends and developments in learning technology and was a must-attend event for anyone interested in this topic.

Why do you like your job?

How to foster exhange and strengthen social capital in the workplace.

But how do you foster this exchange, this connection in a hybrid or even virtual environment?

Hybrid Leadership – Making the best of both worlds

Hybrid Leadership – Making the best of both worlds

Hybrid Leadership – Making the the best of both worlds

Even though the call to return to the office is noticeable in many places, home office has come to stay. For leaders, the task is to manage and motivate teams in a mix of presence, absence and making the best of both worlds with efficient hybrid leadership

Better work-life balance

According to a recent study by telecoms company Cisco, 79 per cent of workers think their work-life balance has improved as a result of hybrid working. A total of 28,000 employees from 27 countries were surveyed. In Austria, almost half see hybrid working as the model of the future, 64 percent want to be able to choose whether they attend meetings online or offline in the future.

While at the beginning of the pandemic there was no alternative to working at home, the attitude of employees has clearly changed. And now, at the latest, the understanding of leadership must also change.

Still unfamiliar

“Surprisingly, a natural approach to leading hybrid teams is still rather the exception,”

says Gunther Fürstberger, Managing Director of MDI Training.

Mostly, for example, meetings are planned either online or in presence. “Hybrid meetings are often seen as difficult and inefficient, although it has been possible for a few years now to communicate very pleasantly and efficiently with online and present participants at the same time with little financial effort.”

The hybrid world is here to stay

There is a broad consensus that the hybrid world is here to stay. What is still lacking is the corresponding mindset. Fürstberger understands this to mean the awareness that technical possibilities should be gladly and increasingly utilised for efficiency as well as positive effects on the environment.

Hybrid Leadership Workshop 

In a one-day MDI workshop, participants learn how to put the success factors of hybrid leadership “Purpose”, “People” and “Performance” into practice, but also how to strengthen togetherness and motivation despite distance.
