Eric Davidove’s Summary

Eric Davidove is an independent consultant based in the United Kingdom and United States. He is focused on creating healthy learning communities, leveraging social media, proving the value of "informal" learning, removing "random" training, increasing learning efficiency and effectiveness, and aligning learning with the business strategy. Eric has over 22 years of experience working in several major industry groups and multi-national organizations. He holds a Doctoral degree from the Florida State University in Instructional Systems Design.

I am passionate about helping client organizations view and approach learning more holistically. I see learning as a process and believe it’s mostly about the flow of information. Social media and Web 2.0 make it possible for us to optimize the synergistic opportunities across learning, knowledge management, communications, collaboration, and networking. Such technology is helping us to blow past the traditional limitations of time and space, and to foster more “group” or community based learning experiences. Learning is real time. The “learner” is no longer in the “center” of my thinking – the community is my new focus.

I pride myself in my ability to practically innovate and to help my client organizations plan actions today that will help them thrive in the future. I am very much focused on delivering results and ensuring alignment with the business strategy. My clients often come to me because they need help with creating a new learning strategy (and organization), and a roadmap to guide their transformational journey. I am often seen as the “trusted advisor” and the person who not afraid to voice the unpopular or minority opinion. My clients often tell me that I inject fresh thinking into their organizations and deliver meaningful results.

Eric Davidove’s Specialties:

Extracting value from informal learning, deploying social media, improving learning operations, and aligning learning to business value.
