"I guarantee you, you have a perspective that is valuable".
In this episode, Laura Woods (PhD student at the University of Sheffield, Co-chair of the Information Literacy Group Committee) joins us to promote action learning sets at this year’s LILAC conference in Sheffield. She speaks to Kerrianne Orriss about how action learning sets work, how listeners can get involved, and why they are especially beneficial to new professionals who would like to develop their practice and widen their professional networks.
