This week the GoodPractice team visited Turing Fest 2019, one of Europe's top tech conferences, to learn about product development, leadership, marketing - and skateboards.

Ross G, Ross D and Owen are joined by podcast newcomers Jade Stewart and Tracey McDonald to share their reflections.

We discuss:

  • how marketing techniques can optimise your L&D output
  • the importance of seeking user feedback
  • the tech sector's approach to diversity and inclusion
