42% of Gen Z Employees Say They Will Turn to Their Professional Peers to Learn and Update Their Skills -- Not AI -- Despite High AI Adoption In The Workplace

Thursday, August 3, 2023

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The vast majority of corporate learning organizations (89%) are already using generative AI, but most individuals still remain apprehensive about the technology's impact on their professional and personal lives. Generative AI is expected to both reduce repetitive tasks and accelerate the trend towards socially isolated professional environments, escalating the demand for learning experiences that center on human interaction and are built to create organizational alignment. To demonstrate, 52% of employees believe onboarding should either be at least one year or continuous, and 35% of employees say online, cohort-based learning is the best modality for onboarding, more than one-on-one virtual meetings (27%), mobile learning applications (22%), or virtual reality orientation (12%).

Key Points: 
  • The analysis finds that individuals crave community participation in times of uncertainty and are drawn to learning experiences that encourage and stimulate connection.
  • Connection matters across every facet of the enterprise, both internal and external, and can even be a competitive advantage.
  • Additionally, as workplace demographics and work environments shift, learners are bringing expectations from the on-demand, personalized media of their consumer lives to the workplace.
  • This both decentralizes learning and drives engagement by enabling people to learn the way that they live and connect."
