Episode 137 - Embracing Change: Bernie's Journey in Leadership and Learning Development
In this episode, I chat with Bernie from Insignia Training - who took us on a deep dive into the heart of learning and development. Bernie shared his fascinating journey from sales to leadership training, emphasizing the power of experiential learning.
We talked about the seismic shift in workplace culture, where freedom and flexibility reign supreme, driving talent toward entrepreneurship over traditional paths. As business owners, we explored the balance between the joy of teaching and the grit of running a company, discussing the crucial role emotional intelligence plays in personal transformation and training effectiveness.
We also delved into how artificial intelligence is changing the game, while reaffirming the irreplaceable value of human interaction in the learning industry. Remember, learning is growth, and in today's dynamic business environment, it's about much more than just the paycheck—it's about impact, development, and genuine human connections.
