68 — Business basics for L&D


Listen Later

As learning and development professionals, should we focus on learning outcomes or business outcomes? In this week's podcast, GoodPractice Business Development Director Chris Keenan argues that some parts of L&D lack basic business skills. He joins Ross G and Owen to share his experiences and chat about what we could do differently.

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