L&D Professionals have traditionally been labeled as creators, focusing on developing learning materials. However, with the growing discussions on AI and the push for greater impact, there’s a predicted shift towards them becoming connectors. This new role emphasizes linking people with opportunities, facilitating connections among peers, or aligning the right technologies with organizational needs, among others.

Our session will cover the types of connections L&D can foster and the skills necessary to remain effective and relevant.
