Episode Synopsis

Sometimes, not having a plan leads to the best places. That's how my guest, Viktoria Hubner, found talent development. Studying communication science, she thought it might lead her to be a writer or a journalist one day, but after some professional exploration, she pivoted to talent development.  At Dynatrace, she is designing educational programs targeted at people's soft skills. At first, she introduced peer-to-peer learning programs for 1,200 people in our R&D team but is now working on scaling them company-wide. One of her projects, LEAP, is a community of more than 40 Dynatracers passionate about inspiring people's leadership and enhancing communication and collaboration by being a sparring partner for teams or facilitating learning sessions about presentation practice, feedback, collaboration, body language, and critical conversations. Such programs create spaces where people connect and feel safe to grow, experiment, and challenge ideas at Dynatrace, ultimately fostering a sense of belonging. Tune in to hear more about Talent Development's role in tech companies and Viky's career story. Where to find us:      Connect with Sue Quackenbush on LinkedIn  Connect with Viktoria Hubner on LinkedIn  Discover the opportunities at Dynatrace and take your career to the next level: careers.dynatrace.com
