Why the L&D Must Change Podcast? In this brief introduction, Jess Almlie, host of the L&D Must Change podcast will share a little about her background as well as the reason for starting the podcast.
Jess has worked in people development fields for over 25 years from crew trainer at McDonald's to Vice President of Learning and everythign in between. Through this time, there has been one phrase that has plagued her, "There is a better way."
This evolved throughout her life in the following stages:
Jess believes those of us in the people development professions (L&D, TD, OD, etc.) are ready for impact. We have the skill and we have the smarts, but we aren't rising to our full potential.
If we truly want to make an impact on our organizations and solve talent challenges we need to do our work differently.
If we REALLY want to change, it will take all of us, working together to make that happen.
In this bi-weekly podcast, Jess will interview brilliant L&D minds who are working to change our profession in some way. Rarely, she may also share a solo episode.
The goal is to give you ideas and concrete action steps that you can use to help in changing the way we do our work in this profession to have a greater impact on our organizations and their people.
