SUMMARY:Being a Workplace Anthropologist: Finding the Stories That Shape Learning
DESCRIPTION:Being a Workplace Anthropologist: Finding the Stories That Shape Learning\nLet’s be real—sometimes the root of a performance issue isn’t in the data\, the survey\, or the SME interview. It’s in the culture. It’s in the unwritten rules\, the watercooler conversations\, the “that’s just how we do it” mindset. \nIn this Coffee Chat\, we’ll dig into what it looks like to step into the role of a Workplace Anthropologist\, someone who doesn’t just build learning programs but uncovers the stories\, rituals\, and behaviors that shape how people actually work. \nBecause if we want learning to stick\, we have to go deeper than bullet points and surface-level analysis. We have to understand the environment in which it’s meant to live. \n  \nWe’ll talk about:\n\n\nHow to read between the lines and spot patterns in behavior and language \n\n\nThe power of story in identifying barriers to learning \n\n\nWhat L&D can learn from curiosity-driven observation \n\n\nHow to use what you discover to build training that fits the real world\, not the ideal one \n\n\nThis isn’t about becoming a fly on the wall—it’s about becoming a better partner. Because when you really understand the environment you’re designing for\, your learning solutions don’t just land…they stick. \nAnd yep—this session is 100% free. Bring your curiosity\, your stories\, and your questions. \n👉 Register now to save your seat and see your workplace with new eyes. \n\nCan’t Make It In Person? No Worries\, We’ve Got Your Back! Register And Receive The Following:\n✅ Access to the Learning Rebels resource page with all the extra goodies \n✅ Copy of the video recording \n✅ Copy of the chatbox transcription \n✅ Copy of the full session transcript & summary \n✅ Additional resources such as books\, articles\, and handouts

SUMMARY:Presentation Skills Showcase: The Good\, the Bad\, and the Brilliant
DESCRIPTION:We’ve all sat through presentations that felt like root canals. And we’ve also been part of sessions that made time fly\, sparked ideas\, and left us energized. So… what’s the difference? \nThis Coffee Chat is your chance to share: the good\, the bad\, and the brilliantly unexpected. \nWhether you’re leading virtual sessions\, live workshops\, or onboarding sessions – how you present matters. But you don’t need a full-blown seminar to sharpen your skills. You need peers who get it\, tools that work in real life\, and the space to test new ideas without judgment. \nWhether you’re brand new to presenting or have hundreds of sessions under your belt\, you’ll walk away with fresh ideas and renewed energy. \n\n  \nThis isn’t a talent show – it’s a skills swap.\nWe’ll explore: \n\n\nWhat really works when trying to keep learners engaged \n\n\nSmall changes that make a big difference in delivery \n\n\nGo-to tools or activities that always land \n\n\nTips for handling nerves\, tech fails\, or low-energy audiences \n\n\nNo PowerPoint decks required. No polished scripts needed. \nJust bring your favorite activity or a lesson you learned the hard way. You’ll walk away with new ideas\, renewed confidence\, and maybe even a few mic-drop moments of your own. \nAs always\, this session is free\, fun\, and wide open to anyone in L&D – no matter your experience level. \n👉 Register now to join the fun!  \n\nCan’t Make It In Person?

SUMMARY:Burnout Recovery: Rest as Strategy\, Not Surrender
DESCRIPTION:Let’s talk about the thing we all feel but rarely say out loud: burnout.\nIn a profession where we’re constantly expected to be creative\, strategic\, and emotionally tuned in\, exhaustion often hides in plain sight. And if we don’t make space to acknowledge it\, burnout becomes just another part of the job instead of a signal to pause and reset. \nThis Coffee Chat is that space. \nWe’re taking time to talk honestly about what burnout looks like in our professional and personal lives – and how we can begin recovering in ways that work for real people with real responsibilities. \nWe’re joined by special guest Chris Coladonato\, The Connection Catalyst\, who brings a fresh\, grounded perspective on well-being at work and the power of intentional rest as a strategy\, not a reward. \n  \nThis isn’t a fix-it session. It’s a reflection session.\nTogether\, we’ll explore: \n\n\nHow burnout shows up specifically in L&D roles \n\n\nThe myths we believe about productivity\, energy\, and “being the go-to” \n\n\nHow to start noticing the signs – before the burnout spiral hits \n\n\nStrategic rest and recovery practices that actually work \n\n\n  \n“Rest helps you show up differently—calmer\, clearer\, more connected. It’s not a sign of weakness… Rest isn’t lazy—it’s strategic.”— Chris Coladonato\, The Connection Catalyst \nThis is your invitation to step away from the noise and connect with others who understand the unique pressures of learning and development work. We’re gathering not to solve burnout in one hour – but to talk honestly about what it looks like\, how it affects us\, and what recovery can truly mean. \nYou’re welcome to participate or just listen in. Bring your coffee\, your questions\, or simply your presence.This conversation is free\, open\, and judgment-free\, because sometimes just showing up is the first step toward feeling whole again. \n👉 Register now to join us. Let’s make space for recovery – together. \nCan’t Make It In Person? No Worries\, We’ve Got Your Back!
