Episode description
In this episode, I talk to Veronica Reed about developing your instruction design/talent development/learning and development style and why it is important for you personally as well as for your organization. We also talk about your ID/L&D philosophy, which goes a bit deeper and why it's important to be grounded in your style and philosophy and also to revisit them regularly.
Veronica Reed, aka "The Learning Queen," is a new Learning Experience Designer who has over 7 years of experience in Human Resources. Veronica is passionate about connecting the employee experience with the learner experience and discovered she could do this as a Talent Development professional. Veronica is an active volunteer for the ATD Dallas Chapter, where she helped to start the New to Talent Development Meetup, which focuses on providing resources for professionals new to the field.
