“How do we keep the human touch as L&D leaders in the AI era?”
In our last episode, we explored how AI is transforming L&D from reactive to strategic, helping leaders prove business value beyond completion rates. This time, we’re shifting our perspective from technology to leadership.
Laura Overton and Michelle Ockers, co-authors of the book The L&D Leader: Principles and Practice for Delivering Business, remind us that while AI can amplify what we do, it’s courage and connection that define how we lead. The technology may evolve, but the heart of L&D leadership stays the same. It’s helping people stay equipped, ready, and connected to meaningful work.
Laura & Michelle have captured 25 years of research into three powerful principles that leaders today can anchor to: Tuning In, Responding, and Improving or TRI. If you’re curious about how you can become a more effective leader, tune in and join me in my curious corner.
Some curious takeaways:
- The best L&D leaders navigate change through context, not control
- AI can’t replace human judgment. It amplifies it
- Courage and agency are the real success indicators for the future of learning
