Leading Learning & Development (L&D): ELE Leader Members Test-Drive Josh Bersin Academy
ELE would like to recruit members to create a 5-week cohort to experience semi-synchronous collaborative learning. As learning professionals, we’re faced with a largely new landscape and increasing demand for our work, as organizations begin to see why learning is now a business imperative. The Leading L&D Program by Nomadic Learning explores these changes and offers tools for developing new strategies that align with what both employees and organizations need to thrive. In the Leading L&D program, learners will get hands-on, practical guidance and time-tested wisdom from peers, and will explore together: What is the benefit of learning in cohorts rather than individually? How can L&D serve as a response to this period of ongoing uncertainty? What are the benefits of shifting our thinking away from learning systems and toward a culture of learning? How can we measure the effectiveness of learning with clear, impactful data?

Constant's Nomadic City
In the period 1954-1974 the Dutch artist known as Constant (Constant Nieuwenhuys,
1920-2005) elaborated a series of artworks and writings depicting a future urban
agglomeration: New Babylon. Stretching over the whole globe, New Babylon hosts
wandering individuals who freely move around the interactive space of the hyper-city
without any fixed abode, or any reference to an established culture and habits. As the
progressing automation of all productive activity allows the people to dispose of free
time without any limitation, the main activities of New Babylonians are of a ludic kind.
After a concise introduction, this article concentrates on the written work
accompanying the project, by focusing on two recurring key terms: “nomadism” and
“play”. These are the “travelling concepts” (Bal 2002) surfacing in a number of texts
by other authors, diverse in scope, disciplinary field, and date of composition. Next to
Deleuze and Guattari’s Nomadologie (Mille plateaux, 1980), Edouard Glissant’s Poétique
de la Relation (1990), Johan Huizinga’s Homo Ludens (1938), the net of relations among
texts outlined in this article comes to encompass also Dutch authors such as Menno
ter Braak (1902-1940) and Simon Vinkenoog (1928-2009), with the aim of
reconnecting New Babylon with its Dutch background, too often underplayed in
scholarship on this subject. Urban planning, social trends and the development of
counter-cultures in the Netherlands in the Fifties and Sixties offer a better insight into
Constant’s internationally revered artwork
Nomadic firms in a globalizing economy: A comparative study
The location patterns of modern firms appear to exhibit floating patternswith a tendency towards footlooseness. The spatial-economic dynamics - sometimes across teh border - of firms is encapsulated in the term 'nomadic firms'. This paper adresses the issue of nomadic behaviour of firms against the background of globalisation trends. After a critical discussion of globalisation phenomena and a review of the literature on nomadic entrepreneurial behaviour, the paper sets out t formaulate a series of relevant hypotheses of spatial relocation behaviour of international firms in a globalizing network economy. The analytical framework is tested by means of interviews among actual or potential nomadic firms, in both the Netherlands and abroad. Infrastructure quality and geographical accessibility appear to play an important role, but also opportunity seeking behaviour has a prominent place in nomadic behaviour. The comparitive study among the various firms located in various countries, which aims to identify the critical relocation factors, is based on principles of modern meta-analysis.
Nomadism as a way of being of the immigrants and internally displaced persons
The article presents the innovatory understanding of the nomadic strategy of human being in the transitional condition. The aim of the article is to determine the role of the nomadic being way in the social group of internal migrants. It is substantiated, that aims and actions of a nomad are directed on creating new ways of realization and conceptualization of variants of nomadic being. It is explained, that a nomad doesn’t go by the way, offered by traditional types of activity, but searches innovatory ways of realization, doesn’t stop on deciphering of traditionally existing being senses, but produces them him/herself. A subject, living in a space of “boundaries” is deprived of the settled comfort, he/she searches for a possibility of balance and harmony, social recognition and improvement of own life conditions in the movement and change. The culture of choice, formed by the logic of the modern market, gives a nomad resources for regulating the own freedom degree. Nomadic instruments correspond to the migrants’ way of life. Digital nomadism creates stimuli for the active life and adaptation to new conditions of different groups of migrants
Mapping international diversity in researching traveller and nomadic education: special theme issue of International Journal of Educational Research, Vol. 33, No. 3, 2000, pp. 219-318
Itinerant groups are among the most marginalized communities in the world, and their educational provision remains a low priority in most countries. The chapters in this issue examine the educational opportunities of six types of itinerant people - nomadic pastoralists, migrant fishermen, fairground/showground children, Gypsy Travellers, barge people and circus people - in six countries - Nigeria, India, Scotland, England, the Netherlands, and Australia. The authors address three questions in relation to specific groups in particular countries: What contexts frame educational provision for itinerant groups? How does current research understand and evaluate that provision? How does that research help to map and celebrate international diversity in Traveller and nomadic education
Cain and Abel: Re-Imagining the Immigration 'Crisis'
This essay proposes to interpret the significance of the so-called immigration crisis in the light of the ancient story of Cain and Abel. Much more than a mere conflict between brothers, this essay will argue that the story of Cain and Abel presents two archetypal ways of dwelling in the world: the sedentary and the nomadic. As such, the story sheds a shocking new light on our present crisis, deeply problematizing the sedentary and revealing in an amazing tour de force, the hidden potentialities of the nomadic and the powerful rejuvenating force that comes with its inclusion and welcoming in the sedentary landscape that characterizes our Western societies
Post-place branding as nomadic experiencing
This paper introduces post-place branding in the
context of the post-representationalist turn in marketing
research by drawing on Deleuze and Guattari’s (A thousand
plateaus: capitalism and schizophrenia, University of
Minnesota Press, Minneapolis, 1987) theory of nomadology.
By engaging critically with fundamental concepts in
the place and destination branding literature, post-place
branding offers an alternative perspective to entrenched
definitions of subjectivity, place, and event experiencing,
by effecting a paradigmatic shift from processing monad to
nomad, from event as symbolic structure to micro-events,
from pre-constituted place to spacing in the process of deand
reterritorializations. Post-place branding is illustrated
by re-imagining the brand architectural components of the
experiential events of 70,000 Tons of Metal and The Boiler
Room. The analysis culminates in a metaphorical modeling
exercise that draws nomadological guidelines for brandcomms’
message strategy
The life cycle of authenticity: neo-nomadic tourism culture in Kazakhstan
The paper presents the findings related to the stages of life cycle of authenticity where Kazakhstani nomadic culture in a post-Soviet heritage evolves towards tourist consumption. Using a qualitative case-study research approach, the analysis of data traces stakeholders’ perception of authenticity of various elements of Kazakhstani cultural tourism. The study intertwines inextricably with the processes of authenticity, commodification and cultural change as Kazakhstani traditions have evolved to a neo-nomadic tourism culture where authenticity becomes a currency at play and a point of differentiation from other tourism destinations. The findings offer an original approach to understand the transformation of authenticity at various stages of Kazakhstani tourism development and explore how authenticity is positioned in the influx of tourists and supporting roles from local governments and organisations
