It’s Our Turn: Why 2026 must be the year L&D Professionals invest in their own development
About The Event
As a new year begins, L&D professionals everywhere are gearing up to raise capability, energy and performance across their organisations. We support others to grow, adapt and thrive. Yet too often, we neglect our own development in the process.
That comes at a cost – a price potentially too high to bear. As AI becomes a workplace norm, the pace and expectations of our role are changing fast. If we do not actively invest in ourselves, we risk slipping into irrelevance, unable to make impact and show value.
The good news is this: AI is not replacing the human, it is raising the bar on what being human at work really means. For L&D, this puts renewed emphasis on discernment, critical thinking, emotional and relational intelligence, facilitation, and the ability to read the room and influence in real time. These are not “nice to haves”. They are now core capabilities.
In this practical and reflective webinar, we will explore the human skills L&D professionals need to work confidently alongside the bots to stay current and relevant. Crucially, we will look at how coaching and community provide the fastest, most sustainable way to build those skills, strengthen professional confidence, and future-proof your impact.
This session is for L&D professionals who want to invest in themselves with the same care and seriousness they bring to developing others.
