In this episode of the podcast, my guest is Kat Kennedy, the Chief Experience Officer of Degreed, where she has overall responsibility for product and technology. Kat was employee number three at Degreed and since she joined in 2012, the company has enjoyed phenomenal growth and created an entire new category in the HR technology market with its learning experience platform or LXP.

• The future direction of the learning and development field

This episode is a must listen for anyone interested or involved in learning skills and the technology that supports it. So that is Business Leaders, CHROs, Chief Learning Officers and anyone in a People Analytics, Learning, Workforce Planning or HR Business Partner role.
