Turning an Enterprise to a Learning Community
summary
Delta documents a practical learning program: weekly forum grows to a 500-person mailing list with ~70 attendees; 90-minute learning circles use pre/post tests and hands‑on labs and report a 25% post-test improvement; bootcamps are day‑long, dojos run for 8-week team immersions with maturity assessments, and a week‑long 2019 hackathon mixes vendor sessions and judged technical behaviors. Curriculum maps roles to skills, partners include AWS, IBM, Red Hat and Pluralsight, and leadership mentors one hour monthly. Pizza helped initial buy‑in.
