Description

A phrase you will often hear getting thrown around in the L&D space is ‘putting the learner first’, but you might wonder how many people proactively design a strategy to meet employees’ needs, rather than just the needs of the business…

In this episode we’re joined by someone who is super passionate about designing experiences that are intentionally built with the learner in mind.
