Conversations About Enterprise Learning, Communications and Technology
Paul Dillon and Daniel Ho are two fun and smart guys that know a lot about Enterprise Learning and Communications. We work out of a funky office in downtown Toronto, Canada.
In this blog we ruminate on breakthrough ideas, current trends, and innovative best practices in learning.

He is an enterprise learning and communications consultant, with experience in curriculum development, learning design, E-learning, mobile learning, leadership development, and language training.
He has worked with a broad cross section of public and private sector clients. He has gained an international understanding of adult learning through extensive work and travel abroad. In particular, he spent two years working as an adult education expert in the People’s Republic of China, and has completed projects for clients in South Korea, and South Africa.
Paul has a Masters of Education degree from the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education/University of Toronto.
He currently lives in downtown Toronto, Canada with his wife and two boys.

[…] Paul just lives at the other end of the street, but I think he’s off on his travels for March Break with the kids. I’m going to have to play hooky some time this week and go for a visit especially when the weather forecast has Toronto out of the sub-zero weather and into the teens later on int the week! […]
Hey Paul,
Amazing what crops up in the microwaveable world. I read up on you’re org. and am quite impressed indeed; great stuff! I’m still slogging it out here in the Nation’s Capital, 22 years now, teaching addictions counselors and preparing to begin my PhD dissertation in philosophy/psychoanalytic theory/literature (always did like things in threes, the unholy trinity: James Joyce, Schopenhauer and Freud). The website above is my writing one; barring that, a place to commit grammacide.
