C² Xbox Project Featured in New Book The Learning Advantage: Blending Technology, Strategy, and Learning to Create Lasting Results
C² Technologies’ Xbox project is featured as a case study in the new book The Learning Advantage: Blending Technology, Strategy, and Learning to Create Lasting Results, edited by Karen Mantlya, and published by ASTD Press. C2’s client, the former global training manager at Microsoft Corporation, offers an account of his role in the launch of the Xbox 360, and how he got a global sales and customer service workforce ready for the challenge. The client’s breathtaking 10-week experience is described in Chapter 4, which effectively shows the nexus of the strategy; among the highlights is how the ROI for the learning effort was tracked to the penny.

The Learning Advantage: Blending Technology, Strategy, and Learning to Create Lasting Results (A Content Express eBook)
Connect strategy and technology-based learning to bottom-line value while increasing the visibility and value of the learning function.
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 company’s 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.
