The Global Workplace White Paper

Access this file:

This white paper, The Global Workplace, is based on analysis of a survey conducted by ASTD and the Institute for Corporate Productivity (i4cp) in the spring of 2012. Of the 637 respondents to the survey, half reported that their organizations are currently offering global learning or planning to do so within three years. In addition to the survey, follow-up interviews were conducted with select respondents.

The white paper covers key highlights from the ASTD/i4cp report The Global Workplace: Learning Beyond Borders, now available via the ASTD Store.
