L&D Strategy Where to Begind Webinar

About The Event

Every L&D team has good intentions. Good ideas too. But good intentions don’t automatically translate into people development that sticks, or into an L&D function that’s seen as genuinely strategic.

Without a clear strategy, we end up rowing hard in different directions. Work gets done. Programmes get delivered. Yet the cumulative impact is harder to point to, and the value we bring can get lost.

This webinar is a practical starting point. We’ll explore what an L&D strategy actually is (and isn’t), why it matters, and how to begin building one that works in your context. Not a generic template. One that is yours, with strong stakeholder buy-in.

We’ll also look at the foundations that need to be in place before any strategy can take hold: the environment where learning happens, the permission people have to engage in it, and the culture that makes it sustainable. Get these wrong and even the most carefully designed learning initiatives quietly fade. Get them right and everything else becomes possible.

What you’ll take away

  • Clarity on what a learning strategy actually is, and the common misconceptions that get in the way
  • An understanding of the three foundational elements your strategy needs before anything else (Environment, Permission, Culture)
  • Practical questions to help you assess where your own foundations are strong and where they need work

This session is for you if …

You’re an L&D professional who wants your work to have greater visibility and impact. Whether you’re starting from scratch, working to refresh an existing strategy, or simply sensing that something isn’t quite landing then this is a conversation worth having.

You don’t need to be in a senior role. You do need to care about doing L&D well and ensuring your best work is having an impact. Join #TheTwoMichelles and your L&D peer network for an honest, practical hour.
