LXCI December 2008:
The ASTD Learning Executives Confidence Index (LXCI) for December 2008
was 52.1 based on responses from 115 LXs to an online invitation-only
survey, demonstrating that collectively LXs expect their learning
functions to remain the same or marginally improve over the next six
months (for those unfamiliar with the LXCI, a detailed explanation
appears at the end of this report). The outlook for LXs’ own
organizational performance has declined, with only 39% reporting their
industry will remain the same or improve over the next six months, down
from 52% in November. Those LXs who anticipate their own organization
to have moderately to substantially worse profits in 12 months compared
to today had an LXCI of 33.1, while those who expect their
organization’s profits to be moderately to substantially better had an
LXCI of 80.3.
