 Modern Business Thinking?

Each year, getAbstract assesses more than 10,000 English and German non-fiction books. From these, it selects 10 finalists, and then its expert jury honors the winners in both language categories. We are pleased to announce that this year's winner in the Learning Impact category is Brandon Carson's L&D's Playbook for the Digital Age, published by ATD Press. In this engaging and essential book, Carson makes the case for a new L&D strategy that enables businesses to adapt to technological change. To thrive, he argues, organizations must radically redefine how they view work and how they engage with talent. As one jury member put it, it is the one book that must be in business leaders' hands this year. L&D's Playbook for the Digital Age is the perfect book to round out any publisher's business lineup.
