The Learning Advantage

The Learning Advantage explores how four leading organizations (Accenture, Microsoft, Caterpillar, and the U.S. Department of Labor) successfully linked technology-based learning to their companies’ strategic initiatives to drive organizational growth. Informative case studies enable learning professionals to emulate the success of these enterprises and influence executives to allocate ample resources to training to ensure that learning remains a key value of the entire organization. As a bonus, The Learning Advantage includes an interactive exploration of Microsoft’s X-Box 360 launch case study, with examples of technology-supported learning efforts, available online.

For this project, I worked with the author in the developmental editing stage of the manuscript to finalize the Microsoft case study and prepare it for the manuscript. When the book had been typeset, I then wrote an index for the book. Seeing the book from the very early stages to the ending stages is not something that many freelancers have the opportunity doing, and I enjoy each time I can perform multiple services on a project because then I get even more intimate with the words on each page.
