What is Strategic Learning and Development, and why is it important?
Manage episode 474566915 series 3614645
In this kickoff episode of the Strategic L&D for Business Impact series, we’re getting straight to the heart of what it really means to be strategic in learning and development.
If you’re tired of being seen as a support function—if you’re done with L&D being the first to get cut when budgets shrink—this episode will challenge how you think, and change how you show up.
We’ll dig into:
- The real reason L&D is overlooked (and how to fix it)
- The dangerous trap of being reactive
- How to position L&D as a business growth engine
- What it feels like to make the shift—from invisible to influential
- Five actions you can take right now to start becoming indispensable
You’ll walk away with a completely different perspective on your role—and a free L&D Impact Checklist to help you get started.
Because you’re not just here to deliver training. You’re here to enable people, drive results, and lead real transformation.
Don’t forget to follow the show so you don’t miss Episode 2: Aligning Learning Initiatives with Business Goals.
