Asking good questions, listening carefully, checking facts: all skills associated with journalists. But these are the exact same skills that can help us improve as learning and development (L&D) professionals.

On this week's GoodPractice Podcast, L&D's editor-in-chief Martin Couzins joins Ross and Owen to share his insight into the crossover between those two professions, and the lessons you can learn from journalism.

If you'd like to share your thoughts on the show, you can find Martin on Twitter @MartinCouzins, Ross @RossGarnerGP and Owen @OwenFerguson.
