Leading E-Learning is for people who want to introduce e-learning into their organization. It is for those who want to see their organization use e-learning effectively and wisely, not just “do e-learning.” It is for those who are willing to honestly deal with the complexities of e-learning to achieve its considerable potential. And it is for those who want to take charge of the change and not leave it to vendors and external consultants.
