SUMMARY:What We Wish Stakeholders Knew About Learning
DESCRIPTION:“Just turn the PowerPoint into an eLearning course.”\n  \nIf only stakeholders knew… \nIf you’ve heard requests like these\, you’re not alone. One of the biggest challenges in L&D isn’t the design work itself – it’s helping stakeholders understand what goes into creating learning that actually changes behavior and improves performance. \n  \n  \n  \nThis coffee chat is your chance to discuss the disconnect between stakeholder expectations and the realities of instructional design. We’ll talk about the things we wish our stakeholders understood: why good learning takes time\, how throwing content at people doesn’t equal training\, and why aligning learning to business goals matters more than fancy interactions. \nWe’ll discuss strategies for educating stakeholders without sounding condescending\, how to set realistic expectations early in a project\, and ways to communicate the value of your work in terms they care about. You’ll also hear how other L&D professionals handle pushback and navigate tricky conversations about timelines\, budgets\, and design decisions. \nBring your most frustrating stakeholder stories and your best solutions. This is a safe space to vent\, learn\, and support each other through one of the most challenging parts of our work. \n  \n\n  \n👉 Register now to join us.  \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:The Skills We Didn't Know We Needed In L&D
DESCRIPTION:Remember when being good at developing elearning felt like enough?\n  \nThe L&D profession has changed significantly\, and the skills that make you effective today might look very different from what you expected when you started. \nAs we reflect on 2025 and look ahead to 2026\, this coffee chat focuses on the skills that have become essential in our field\, and the ones that might be getting too much attention. We’ll discuss what surprised us most about the competencies we actually use day-to-day versus what we thought we’d need. \n  \n  \n  \nWe’ll talk about the unexpected skills that have become critical: maybe it’s data interpretation\, change management\, or having difficult conversations with stakeholders. We’ll explore which technical skills are worth your time to develop and which ones you can safely skip or outsource. And we’ll address the skills that get hyped up but don’t necessarily translate to better learning outcomes. \nThis is also a chance to discuss where you should focus your professional development efforts in the coming year. What skills will help you grow in your career? What gaps do you need to fill? And what trendy skills can you ignore without falling behind? \nBring your perspective on what’s working\, what’s overrated\, and what you wish you’d learned sooner. We’ll learn from each other’s experiences and help you prioritize your skill-building efforts. \n  \n\n  \n👉 Register now to join us.  \nCan’t Make It In Person? No Worries\, We’ve Got Your Back!
