For those people not on Twitter, here's an introduction to Twitterchats. A Twitterchat is a conversation centered around a topic which is tracked by a hashtag (denoted by a # sign followed by the name) - So
would be a twitter chat. This was taken up by Tanvi Gautam (Singapore based consultant) and almost a month ago she hosted the first such chat with special guest Abhijit Bhaduri (Chief Learning Officer - Wipro) on the topic of
Today evening is the second Twitter chat that Tanvi is hosting - this time the guest is Anand Pillai, Chief Learning Officer of Reliance Industries, and he would be talking on
.
The great thing about Twitter chats is that they are not a one on one conversation and that anyone can participate. The open nature of Twitter makes it possible for even people who did not know about it to get involved.

@tanvi_gautam The first #IndiaHRChat went marvellously well - as expected. You can now have a nice coffee and cake on us! Well done you! :-)Prabhjit |KaurSkills
@AbhijitBhaduri the only problem is that very few companies have sizable number of advocates :) #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh

@subirsay Thanks to you I learnt a new word today ROA ! #indiahrchattanvi gautam
HR is the glue that can help implement social & integrate with the emp life-cycle from attraction & on-boarding to separation. #indiahrchatAnjali
@_Kavi I have my tools ;) Will send you link. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Learning is not sufficient, application is important (ROA - Return of Application) #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
Intellectually stimulating #indiahrchat with @_Kavi @Prabhjit_Kaur @Meetasengupta @tanvi_gautam @AbhijitBhaduri ~ much gratitude & tx.Sangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@abhijitbhaduri if ROI is stage 2, what are the other means of judging the success of an experiment. Obv exp are short term. #indiahrchatdivyeshkharade
Save the date next chat Feb 27th with @anand_Pillai on Branding for HR professionals. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam Wonder how you got those statistics! But that is indeed something !!! :) Many congratulations! #indiahrchatKavi
@AbhijitBhaduri Not possible without everyone involved. SM is not a one person gig :) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@_Kavi you are welcome! I have learnt quite a bit abt HR in India outside of IT today. ;) @GautamGhosh #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji

Apply the SMART Methodology (Specific, Measurable, Actionable, Realistic, & Timed) to your enterprise social software goals. #IndiaHRChatVipin Thomas
@tanvi_gautam At most cases HR r forced to show their personnel angel 4 control coz staff r not groomed to digest that freedom #indiahrchat«Typical Hr»
@tanvi_gautam Thanks for making it happen. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@Prabhjit_Kaur will HR recruit a twitter celebrity just as they would w similarly qualified non-SM experience? #indiahrchat @MeetasenguptaSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
Thank you Tanvi for being such a great host and Abhijit for his supporting knowledge on SM & L&D #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
Often such initiatives fail since businesses are not sure how to align their business goals with the initiatives. #IndiaHRChatVipin Thomas
SM is not the same as distributing your leaflets at the crowded rly station. It is about engaging people who care about you. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
To be successful with enterprise social software you HAVE to determine why you are doing it. #IndiaHRChatVipin Thomas
@tanvi_gautam Lovely #indiahrchat ! Thanks all!meetasengupta
A BIG thanks to @abhijitbhaduri for being the guest :)) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
We are out of time folks ! TYSM for joining in the first ever chat. I hope we can keep this community going. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@Meetasengupta @SangitaSri Absolutely. mentioned earlier massive benefits but 2 keep in mind organisation brand&reputation +IP #IndiaHRChatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@AbhijitBhaduri SM usage is not primarily teen centric anyway. SM clearly has deep access #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@prem_k Thats something I learnt on this chat! Thank you! :) #indiahrchat @GautamGhoshKavi
@Prabhjit_Kaur You have clearly defined the current challenge. #indiahrchat @SangitaSrimeetasengupta
#IndiaHRchat @GautamGhosh Only if it is used for announcement or awareness, not brand-buildingAnita Bhogle
Look at the no of conversations Ford has with customers on FB http://on.fb.me/XS2hsI. Still think it is for teenagers? #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@Prabhjit_Kaur @SangitaSri Can creativity,innovation,potential of sparking via multidisciplinary inputs not be a purpose of SML #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@SangitaSri @Meetasengupta True but balance is needed & true returns aligned 2 expectations - personal, SMT & organisationally. #IndiaHRChatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
When talking social media think of ROE - return on experience not just ROI - return on investment. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@GautamGhosh @_Kavi adjacency = make it easier for people to shift. smaller changes than larger. #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
@vipint7 restricting access opposes the idea of social. Its either for all or none. #indiahrchatKeerthi Kariappa
Tech amplifies the culture of the company. Restrictive and closed in real life = same for SM. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@Meetasengupta @SangitaSri I am all 4 empowerment & extended learning dev. but from #HR perspective-there must be purpose 2 org #IndiaHrChatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@Meetasengupta social innovation occurs in a pace tat is rarely matchd by legislatn: under do/over do control. #indiahrchat @Prabhjit_KaurSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
Some thought provoking questions asked & answered.... follow #indiahrchatRuturaj
Maybe it's the world "social" and co-relating with fb which links these initiatives with being trivial. Any thoughts? #indiahrchatAnjali
#indiahrchat Gen-Y understands social easily, how are Gen-X trained to adapt to the culture of sharing ?Vipin Thomas
@vipinit7 Restricted access is again a policing mindset. This place won't go anywhere #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@prem_k @_Kavi explain "adjacency" :) #IndiaHRChatGautam Ghosh
#indiahrchat should all employees be given access to social software's or only key groups/departments with an Organization?Vipin Thomas
A6 You must have SMT engaged, hooked in and inclusive in L&D strategy - including their own self-development #culture #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@tanvi_gautam What can be gained rather rapidly is employees operating at near industry best practice if active SM Learners #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@BhogleAnita well adv has empirical evidence. After a campaign, sales do rise :) #IndiaHRchatGautam Ghosh
@tanvi_gautam shifts - Classroom:SM, Teacher curated:Self #indiahrchatDebabrat/Debu Mishra
@_Kavi @anjalighadge @AbhijitBhaduri Integrating Social with Work is the holy grail. Don't believe if anybody claims to have it #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji

An interconnected world is bound to go social. Learning is any case a social process. SM is just tech to make that happen #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
Asking for ROI on SM is like asking for ROI on relationships sometimes ! yet You have to invest in it to get smething frm it. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
#IndiaHRchat Advertising questioned on ROI as well. Maybe there are answers there ?Anita Bhogle
@tanvi_gautam Power of Adjacency states that we should make transition in stages. :) Make incremental changes to status quo. #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
@Prabhjit_Kaur so true. so outcome based negotiations must be part of employee SM awareness / training programs. #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@vipint7 Marketeers thought that way abt SM for a while. Others just went ahead, used it & created a connection w customers. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam @vipint7 Through inclusive #business plan & organisational development strategy where perform. aligned 2 outcome #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@Prabhjit_Kaur @SangitaSri a6 or the adoption may be led by better legislation. India HR gurus - gritting or grinning? #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@iVivekHr Some truth to that for sure ! I would put 70% still in personnel mindset #indiahrchattanvi gautam
MT @anjalighadge: @AbhijitBhaduri 2 things pave way 4 social-1 Leaders adopting social & leading 2.Integrating social with work #indiahrchatKavi
@prem_k power of adjacency ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@_Kavi @GautamGhosh if mindset change is the issue try the power of adjacency? #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
@SangitaSri A6 In rep - this might defy #HR legislation, regulatory functions and policy in some aspects - to protect employees #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@tanvi_gautam @gautamghosh HR is fantasy and Personnel is Reality #indiahrchat @wtf_hr«Typical Hr»
. @tanvi_gautam do organisations need 1face on #SM or let its staff be brand ambassadors as such? #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@D_Brat Looks like a quiet revolution is on the way ! #indiahrchattanvi gautam
CXO's want to see the ROI of such initiatives in $$ even before implementing, how are such objections handled ? #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
@tanvi_gautam A:6 Doesn't matter. SM will give power & freedom to learners. Organizations need to wake up to this and accept. #indiahrchatDebabrat/Debu Mishra
@abhijitbhaduri Who do you consider to be the role model for use of SM for learning #indiahrchattanvi gautam
"@tanvi_gautam: People need to self select themselves into and out of learning communities. Tech is a too not the answer. #indiahrchat"Sangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@AbhijitBhaduri 2 things to pave the way for social -1. Leaders adopting social & leading 2.Integrating social with work #indiahrchatAnjali
@tanvi_gautam @Prabhjit_Kaur A6 SocialMedia must be recognised as a new channel 2promote transparency & accountability of staff #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
Interestingly, there is an 'expert' for every level of 'learner' #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam People need to be able to rejoin SM learning communities and pace their learning acc to their own lights #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
Tech is a tool for learning, not the answer for learning (is what I meant) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@GautamGhosh that is indeed a big shift in mindset! More than learning, it is unlearning that is troublesome! #indiahrchatKavi
People need to self select themselves into and out of learning communities. Tech is a too not the answer. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
A6: If we need to prove ROI of SM, its a losing battle most of the times. #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
Is it IT or HR that needs to be more involved in adoption & roll-out of social software with an Org? who shd own it ? #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
A6 Self development=yes | Organisational learning = both (must be your own initiative+will aligned 2organisational L&D strategy #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
People who take charge of their learning get the most out of SM. Orgs who understand this encourage SM adoption #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
Q6. @GautamGhosh Going own way & hoping traction to build up is a huge effort! It needs leadership support. Big time! #indiahrchatKavi
Sr. management sponsorship is key to success of social initiatives with an Org #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
@amythinking >MT @prem_k: A6: Call it corp..blessings/buyin.. Exec..involvement key to SM uptake in orgs. For HR or otherwise. #IndiaHRChatBruce Kneuer
@_Kavi A6: what needs to be seen is whether "traditional L&D" people can move from content creation to curation #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
Folks the floor is now open for your questions. Last 15 min of chat. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
A6: In SM getting used to the social part of the medium is stage 1. Getting biz outcomes/ ROI is stage 2. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
Q6. If the leadership doesnt lead the way, (with SM or anything else)...well, the rocket stays at launch pad!! #indiahrchatKavi
@tanvi_gautam A6: whatever org does at a personal level adopt sm and learn from it #indiahrchatMeta Learning
@anjalighadge Several govts have learnt this the hard way. On SM, everyone is powerful. Better to fix the prob than to muzzle. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
A6: Call it corporate blessings or buyin or whatever. Executive involvement key to SM uptake in orgs. For HR or otherwise. #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
Culture of univ and org has to change if SM will be successful. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam A6: Go our own way, corporate blessings would come if lower cost and higher learning is demonstrated :) #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
@prem_k This is why SM media is messy ! Will try and put them all up for the next one :) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@anjalighadge Perfect timing for question 6 :) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@vipint7 @tanvi_gautam there are only 3 Qs mentioned at http://goo.gl/wzf90 and yet we are at Q5. Love #IndiaHRChat is going great guns! :)Prem Kumar Aparanji
Q6: So do we need corporate blessings to make SM learning mainstream or go our own way ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Why only HR? would say leaders, "management" would like to regulate social #indiahrchatAnjali
A5 #HR enables those skills that are required for individuals to benefit from learning & perform their best for biz innovation #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@Meetasengupta @AbhijitBhaduri skills not as difficult as it is made out to be...more of attitude imo #indiahrchatMeta Learning
A5: Recognizing that there is a serendipity in learning and an evolution to it helps too #indiahrchattanvi gautam
+1 MT @GautamGhosh: @tanvi_gautam @_Kavi A5 I feel HR pros are positioned to be Community Managers -similar skills-facilitation #indiahrchatKavi
The community will police/ regulate itself. It works. So let the org (esp leaders) get used to this 2 way medium. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam A5 SM professionals like @suryasnair and @meerasapra are ex-HR professionals :) #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
@tanvi_gautam A5: HR needs to be a learner to begin with. Be a sponge exploring & absorbing thru use of SM. Not the gatekeeper #indiahrchatDebabrat/Debu Mishra
A5. To curate ideas & hold it for the organisation to dip into is a unique space & capability to build #indiahrchatKavi
1st HR Professional needs to be a SM learner before they do anything in their organisation. #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
So true "@tanvi_gautam: A5: HR still needs to get rid of its personnel roots if it really wants to play social cc:@gautamghosh #indiahrchat"Meta Learning
A5: Building a culture of SM starts outside SM and in the organization #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@AbhijitBhaduri totally agree.Having multiple learnings and conversations simultaneously is the skills challenge of SM learning #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@AbhijitBhaduri brilliant response #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@tanvi_gautam @GautamGhosh A5: tendency to control versus enable #indiahrchatMeta Learning
A5. When people are treated as mature adults, they live upto that ! ( Converse applies ). Classteachers with a cane are passe! #indiahrchatKavi
@tanvi_gautam @_Kavi A5 I feel HR professionals are positioned to be Community Managers - similar skills - facilitation etc #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
A5: Motivation to learn new things... #indiahrchatAkshara Damle
Being able to have 2 way conversation is a skills most people/ orgs take a while to master. We r too used to "press-releases". #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
A5: Learning using SM is easily understood as an extension of pedagogy called Social Learning. Know that first, tools next/last #IndiaHRChatPrem Kumar Aparanji
HR professional should work as filter as far as SM is concern in organisation, to bring relevance and alignment. #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
And this impedes adoption "@GautamGhosh: @tanvi_gautam A5: HR professionals r mostly scared of sm. They want to "regulate" it #indiahrchat"Meta Learning
A5. HR (& all others) must have more faith in the collective intelligence of the organisation #indiahrchatKavi
A5: HR still needs to get rid of its personnel roots if it really wants to play social cc:@gautamghosh #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam A5 contd As someone said recently "Social does not build culture, it makes org culture transparent" #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
A5: The ability to create content, engage a community & to be a curator of resources. Being comfortable w 2 way conversations. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam A5: an open mind :-) many don't even acknowledge existence of sm and think it's for kids #indiahrchatMeta Learning
A5: be a champion on the platform, lead by example #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
Thanks @tanvi_gautam :) Do you have the questions for today's #IndiaHRChat published anywhere?Prem Kumar Aparanji
A5. Not sure of 'skills' ! As much as getting comfortable with an 'outlook' ! #indiahrchatKavi
@tanvi_gautam A5: HR professionals are mostly scared of social. They want to "regulate" it #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
A4 Any personal learning & curious research for personal gains is ok with SM but for organisation benefit - it must be aligned #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@subirsay And it is not always in the control of the organization ! #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam A4. SM is treated as free-loud speaker by immature orgns; try2 control it using usage policies / code of conduct #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@Prabhjit_Kaur Learning is not boxed by any boundary. You may go thru an experience today, but learn from it only years later #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
Why learning always looked from organisational point of view..people learn what they want when they want #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
Q5: What skills r needed to get HR professional ready for using SM for learning ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@AbhijitBhaduri @_Kavi I like how Capgemini has positioned Yammer as an internal Quora. Biz need to align tool to biz problems #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
@prem_k Welcome ! We are a fledgling community but we must start somewhere :) #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam @AbhijitBhaduri hmmm bit of a stretch to say no experts, imo, but a great platform to share expertise #indiahrchatMeta Learning
Oooh! Just got to know about #IndiaHRChat. Great to see something for the subcontinent!Prem Kumar Aparanji
@AbhijitBhaduri If any learning is to take place organisationally & shared - do we not have obligation 2 align it 2 org strat? #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
A4: No clear objectives, undefined expectations #indiahrchatKeerthi Kariappa
A4. Approach using SM as just another tool to be deployed! Its not a program. Its a paradigm. #indiahrchatKavi
@chintancshah SM works for people who take ownership of their learning. Not those who only do the mandatory x days of trg/ yr #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam @vipint7 social software is a tool, needs to be addressing an identified business problem #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
A4. Org's go wrong if objectives of the social media initiatives are not clearly communicated to employees #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
A4 There has 2 be synergy in organisational strategy & what learning is to take place that supports personal development/skills #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@tanvi_gautam A4: expecting adoption and results too soon for one #indiahrchatMeta Learning
@tanvi_gautam Contd A4: Some preliminary thoughts here http://bit.ly/X7Vcnj #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
.@AbhijitBhaduri There are experts even in SM, but multiple hierarchies of expertise co-exist. Can be available for learning #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
Just joining in #indiahrchat hope am not too late @bhogleanitadivyeshkharade
MT @AbhijitBhaduri: Learning frm the novice is new mindset 2 adopt b4 SM can be used. In a changing world there r no experts #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam Contd A4: Co-learners need to share case studies, learning using social media as organizational context doesn't #indiahrchatGautam Ghosh
@GautamGhosh @Prabhjit_Kaur @tanvi_gautam #A4 SM is like any other media: those who want2learn will always utilise it as a tool #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
A4. Org's go worng if they do not have clear objectives & expectations prior to roll-out of such initiaties #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
A4: They dont give time for people to experiment with the new mindset that SM needs. ROI obsession is another block to overcome #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
A4 This is where any approach to L&D must be defined,connected to learning outcomes for strategy, individuals, outcomes-perform #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
A4: They try and structure a largely unstructured phenomenon. Eg: Linkedin not allowing those with few followers to comment. #indiahrchattanvi gautam

MT @vipint7: In rolling out new initiatives such as social software, often ROI is questioned.. How is it justified ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam

@tanvi_gautam A3: Mostly when they apply mechanisms such as "days/hours spent on training" as a measure. #indiahrchatHaroon Bijli
@tanvi_gautam Adoption rates are nascent! Especially when you have an age spectrum in your employee base! #indiahrchatKavi
Organisation may not be able to provide all options of SM learning but can open up the opportunities for applications of SML #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
@Meetasengupta There is a great presentation by @gautamghosh on measurable outcomes on slideshare. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
A3: We have a FB page called CHRD to bring in conversations on learning. It takes time to build an engage a community. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam Not wrong but it would not be sensible to expect measurable learning outcomes fm SM learning in the short term #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@SangitaSri Well the percentage of people who use SM is still not significant I would think. There is too much skepticism. #indiahrchatKeerthi Kariappa

Q3: We are continuously experimenting. Doing work on mobile learning & supplementing the classroom. Will extend it to mentoring #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
A3. Internal SM Platform. used for learning conversations, open feedback elicitation, org wide learning communication etc #indiahrchatKavi

Even the students of DY Patil collage #HR wing would have come up with better thoughts. #indiahrchat #TruestoryHR (Humor Resources)
Social platforms and other collaborative software’s can speed up the organization and help build a connected culture. #SocBiz ##indiahrchatVipin Thomas
SM breaks all conventional boundaries of IIM, IIT and many....SM is not certification based learning #indiahrchatSubir Chatterjee
A2: Technical skills are necessary but not sufficient condition for learning via SM #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@anniemurphypaul says that to be able to learn, we need to feel that we belong to the learning group. SM does JUST that. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
. @Prabhjit_Kaur in a constantly evolvg market/segment/product/ service/channel/media only constant update of skills survives #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠

MT @tanvi_gautam: Q3:How is social media being used in your company for learning ? #indiahrchatKavi
SM is a tool to be leveraged hugely. Org strategy follows a calendar. Learning doesn't. Org Cultures could encourage curiosity. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
Q3:How is social media being used in your company for learning ? Please use A3 so we know reference to question. TY. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
A2: Curiosity is key but humbleness and willing to learn from others must be there too. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
A2 For any learning to be determined in an organisational context, it must be as per the org strategy for L&D, including plans #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
Requires a cultural adaptation MT @AbhijitBhaduri: Lrners have to break word association Learning:Classroom to Learning:Social. #indiahrchatKavi

@tanvi_gautam I think very few do...for a simple answer...#indiahrchatMeta Learning
Culture of the Organization is the key to learning #indiahrchat #SocBiz #futureofwork #enterprise20Vipin Thomas
A2: More than learning the tech, the need for social norms in SM learning is higher. What say @abhijitbhaduri @meetasengupta #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Cant agree with this more!! MT @AbhijitBhaduri: Org assumptions abt learning shd be questioned. #indiahrchatKavi
Tools evolve so fast as well. Even tweet chat is in beta ! #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Learners have to break the word association Learning:Classroom. It shd be Learning:Social. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
. @tanvi_gautam No college distributes prescriptions 4real-life problem solving. continuous learning is the success mantra. #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠
@wtf_hr This is as structured and managed as it can or shd be on SM. Point illustrated #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
A2 This is very much dependent on learning styles, individual preferences, personal interests and organisational demand #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@Meetasengupta I think learning happens post absorption AND in the process of absorption as well! IMHO SM works always! #indiahrchatKavi
MT @SangitaSri: a virtue of Indian workforce abroad is that they never say I dont know; instead I will learn. and they do. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Can we structure the conversation or all would continue to vomit like this #Justasking #indiahrchatHR (Humor Resources)
A2: The pace of change is so immense that the learner mindset and skills must be different too. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam A2. Sadly no. Learners need to learn how to absorb/learn before they can freewheel and learn via SM. #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
Learning styles vary. But SM gives you the variety of options that no org can provide. SM is for curious folks. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
. @AbhijitBhaduri a virtue of Indian workforce abroad is that they never say I don't know; instead I will learn. and they do. #indiahrchatSangeetha ✿⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠

4. SM provides for a super duper knowledge respository. Of both the end results and the processing of learning! #indiahrchatKavi
Q2: Is SM learning suited to every type of learner ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Org assumptions abt learning shd be questioned. Eg we all learn best during working hrs. Shd be www: whenever wherever whoever #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
3. SM is as close as learning can get to the job and really move the needle from training / learning to development! #indiahrchatKavi
@_Kavi Yes, continuous learning catalysed by learning events. #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
today wen u hav to search fr info, most times its external social forums tht help u get the answr. The same can b replicated #indiahrchatVipin Thomas
A1 Learning in a way that is inclusive. In a format that is informal. Sharing of ideas and knowledge as virtual peers. #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
@AbhijitBhaduri Do you think organizations like to relinquish that control ? Not that they have a choice ! #indiahrchattanvi gautam
False starts yes - learns never stops. When we revisit our old assumptions we know it was a false start. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
2. SM keeps the conversation alive long after a 'learning event' has occured! #indiahrchatKavi
Kind of messy learning, like in real life. So closer to real life ? There can be false starts though, no ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
SM's advantage in learning are manifold 1 It democratises learning. Its seamless, participative environment which gives a voice #indiahrchatKavi
SM takes the onus beyond the org & experts. Crowdsource your learning. Learning is abt multiple perspectives. SM works for that #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
A1 Collation of opinion, views, thoughts, expert knowledge transfer and sharing of ideas in creativity & innovation #indiahrchatPrabhjit |KaurSkills
A1: I also think it enables learning beyond boundaries -physical, hierarchical, and functional #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam one learns as one would socially, in supported not competitive ways. Layers not levels #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@Meetasengupta social scaffolding ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
@tanvi_gautam Look forward to this ! Also thank you for setting this up! #indiahrchatKavi
It takes learning beyond trg & devpt. If the world is continuously changing, you got to learn continuously. SM is tool. #indiahrchatAbhijit Bhaduri
@tanvi_gautam iterative learning. Simple social scaffolding. Organic learning processes even within organs #indiahrchatmeetasengupta
@_Kavi Welcome ! Was wondering if you would be around. #indiahrchattanvi gautam
Hello everybody ! Rushed in home to come here. #indiahrchat Braving Mumbai traffic and all that.Kavi
Shall we ? Q1: What do you think is the biggest advantage of using SM for learning in organizations ? #indiahrchattanvi gautam
