You may already be familiar with the Learning Business Maturity Model™, a simple yet powerful tool we created to provide a framework to help organizations assess the maturity of their learning and education businesses. And even though the model has been discussed in a previous episode, we thought it would be helpful to provide some additional clarity on exactly how to use it. In this episode of the Leading Learning podcast, Celisa and Jeff discuss how to effectively put the Learning Business Maturity Model to work to help you grow and improve your learning business. They offer a refresher of what it is and the three major areas of it’s application: dialogue, diagnosis, and direction.
