Episode Synopsis

Summary (From Me)
Nick is a knowledgeable guy and all-round friendly legend. We crossed paths through some work projects but have stayed in touch and have always found him interesting to chat to. Broad chat on a bunch of things that Nick has been working on recently, think there will need to be a part two because this chat went so quickly and there was so many other things I wanted to ask about.

Summary (AI Generated)
In this conversation, Nick discusses his journey in the learning and development (L&D) field, emphasizing the evolution of learning practices, the importance of narrative, and the challenges faced by the industry. He critiques traditional learning systems, advocating for a shift towards job task-based learning and the need for organizations to rethink their approach to learning. Nick highlights the role of technology, particularly AI, in transforming L&D practices and stresses the importance of context and relationships in effective learning. The conversation concludes with reflections on the future of L&D and the need for organizations to adapt to changing environments.
