Listen "381 — Are you a trusted learning advisor?"
Episode Synopsis
We often hear that learning and development needs a 'seat at the table'. But how do we get there? How do we build credibility, tackle real issues, and demonstrate value? In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast Ross and Owen are joined by author, academic and L&D pro Dr Keith Keating to discuss: Whether L&D are changemakers or order takers How we change the perception of L&D The extent to which L&D pros must sell themselves, their ideas and their profession. During the discussion, Ross G referenced To Sell is Human by Dan Pink. Keith's book is The Trusted Learning Advisor, available now from Amazon (US / UK). In 'What I Learned This Week', Owen gave a glittering endorsement of a sensational new science fiction writer (Ross G). Subscribe for updates.
