“Nobody Puts L&D In A Corner.”

Sep 2

🎬🕺💃 If you’ve been away at Camp Kellerman’s this summer, welcome back!

🛶🌲🩳 While you were off by the lake I joined Adam Lacey on The Assembly Podcast for a conversation I think you’ll enjoy.

One insight I’ve discovered from leading learning, brand & culture initiatives at brands like Apple, Lululemon, Adidas, Zalando & On is that it’s a dance to balance the strategic, brand & human dimensions of how people learn and connect.

When we work this way L&D shows up as it should: Culture Amplifiers. 🙌🏻

Not just content creators or workshop facilitators. A team that fuels connection + purpose + belonging. And the latest engagement data is screaming for more of that! 🔥

So how do we get there? Definitely not by sitting in a corner... Baby. 🕺🪑💃

In the episode I share some simple, practical ways to approach work this way, giving L&D folks the upgrade they deserve. Equally worth a listen for anyone leading collaboration or change initiatives at their companies.

PS: If you touch L&D at your company, Assemble You is worth a follow — in addition to this L&D Leadership series, their audio micro-learnings on core skills are excellent. 💫
