What our members say

Melanie Calle
Sr. Manager, Talent Development

“I believe highly in the strength of a Network – I get very inspired by the diversity of thought and it’s a great platform to share thoughts and ideas with others. Coming together on a specific interesting topic, learning about other businesses or ways of working. Being part of something exciting!“

Sami M Leppänen
Head of L&D PMO, People and Communications
KONE

“It’s great to meet like-minded people who share the same interest and passion. Everyone brings different perspectives and use cases, which helps broaden my own thinking. At the same time, I recognize patterns in my own organization that I need to address. Learning from peers is something I truly value. This community provides a space where we can discuss challenges and opportunities in using these tools effectively. That’s the value I see—hearing opinions, recognizing similarities and differences, and applying those insights in my work.”

Requirements

Our community is open to professionals who are eager to lead L&D initiatives with a collaborative approach to learning, or simply passionate about making a difference.

To ensure quality of the discussions, we review all applications and welcome participants who:

Work for large enterprises or consulting firms, Public Organizations or NGO’s (most members work at organizations with 500+ employees).
Currently hold a position in change management or L&D leadership, C-level position or higher.
Membership is free of charge, but we like to see that you attend ⅔ of the meetings to stay in the group. We can not guarantee that there is an opening for you, but you are welcome to apply as we continuously launch new communities.
