Using Knowledge Sharing to Future-Proof Your Organization | Mary Bollash
This week catch up with our guest Mary Bollash, engineering learning and development officer at Carrier Global Corporation. Mary uses her educational background in adult learning and education to lead knowledge management and transfer activities within the engineering function for Carrier.
In this episode, Mary shares how Carrier promotes knowledge sharing to fill forecasted skills gaps. She talks about the expert and “nextpert” approach used at Carrier and the critical role of implicit, explicit and tacit knowledge.
Listen in for Mary’s tips on mandatory learning (spoiler alert—avoid it) and how to help engage adult learners with training and have the knowledge really stick.
