Learning Leaders SIG: How do we Create a Culture of Continuous Learning Without Overwhelming Employees? (28 Oct 2026)

Wed, 28 Oct 2026 11:30:00 GMT

It seems the trend is doing more with less employees. I hear this multiple times at meetings, conferences, and daily discussions. But how do we continue to develop our employees without overwhelming them? I am overwhelmed personally and I know others are as well.

"If employees were given one hour per week for development, how would we ensure that hour produces meaningful growth rather than more content consumption?"

Let’s discuss this question and how we can create a meaningful learning environment that doesn’t overwhelm our employees. Convener: Leah Cridlin
