The World is really flat now. Technology has granted us the power to shape the world, even from individual standpoint. The clear example is Steve Jobs reinvented Apple Mac, Jeff Ooi, Brothe Rocky and other blogger in shaping the public opinion in Malaysia.
In 21st Century, with such technology and communication, the role of human resource development, training and learning at workplace becoming more critical in engineering corporate future. With internet, knowledge is no longer confine to experts in far away land. On the contrary, it is liberated through Web 2.0 like Wikis, web, Blog, Facebook, Webinar and many online tools.
If the profession of Chief Learning Officer plays their cards well, or if the CEO of the organization granted the CLO the power to change, then HRD is the department helping shaping the present and future performance of the organization via performance consulting, training needs, informal learning channels, onlien support, organization development initiation and etc.
So, the world is flat, whether you like it or not.
